PUNQ

Rated 31 Dec 2019

Gentle little family drama about fatherhood and struggling to fit into that role at an older age. I found myself relating to his situation on a few occasions, so a little intriguing how he clumsily handled it. Not a film I fell madly in love with, but it fits the period it's made.

An interesting movie but I just couldn't relate to the dad, he was such an ass. The acting was pretty good and the direction was solid if unremarkable.
