Review of Summer of 84

Summer of 84 (2018)
6/10
I wanted this movie to be great but...
23 August 2020
Im born in the 70s so the 80s is warm and nostalgic to me. I was around these boys age then so I know the my stuff. What I hate about remakes of the 80s is that almost no one cares about making it authentic. They throw in a few things but the lingo, the hairdue, the fashion anf colors are all wrong.

So thats a big minus for this movie.

The other thing is that everything is so predicable. They telegraph every scene a mile away.

The third thing is the very weird ending. Its like a third act after the resolution. Felt like the movie was over and this part was some kinda pickup idea cus they couldnt find a fitting end to it.
