Overview
Eight close friends soak up their last day of summer together on the beach before parting ways for college.
On the surface, a movie that is heavy on teenagers having life conversations might seem like a dangerous proposition. After all, how many movies are there featuring kids of this age having good conversation? The film did a great job capturing the sentimentality of that night and that it was never going to be like that again. As someone who has been known to be sentimental about such things, I really appreciated that part of the film. They did a nice job.
