6/10 - decent teen romance, but nothing truly special

BorMay 23, 2023

I'm always on the lookout for solid, emotional character dramas. When I saw that "All Summers End" starred Kaitlyn Dever of "Short Term 12" fame, I bought in hoping for perhaps a similar result. What I found instead, however, was a film that at best is a collection of teen drama cliches, and doesn't even achieve that middling "success" because the format used is so odd and pointless. For a basic plot summary, "All Summers End" focuses on the teenaged relationship between Conrad (Tye Sheridan) & Grace (Dever). One night, while messing around with his buddies (played by Austin Abrams & Ryan Lee), Conrad participates in a hit-and-run type accident that leaves Grace's brother Eric (Beau Mirchoff) dead. While struggling with his conscience on whether to disclose this information, the situation is muddied even further by the fact that he and Grace have formed a romantic relationship. There are a lot of films of this ilk (teen romance) out there, so "All Summers End" needed to do something to differentiate itself. Sadly, this does not happen in the slightest. Despite some great acting talent, the performances never seem convincing (likely because of a script that feels so predictable) or emotional. In the case of Devers, for example, I know this CAN happen (I absolutely revere "Short Term 12" and her performance is equally as strong in it), but it just doesn't happen here. The overall plot is also pretty bland and non-distinguishable: teens with friends, teens in love, mix in some tragedy, teens vs. parents, etc. The worst part, however, is that not only does "All Summers End" not just coast by as a sappy teen drama, but the format in which the story is told (and thus how we are supposed to relate to the characters) is one of the oddest I've ever seen. I won't spoil everything here, but I will say that the opening prologue and closing coda, if you will, which follow one of the teen characters into adulthood, are about as asinine as storytelling comes. For the life of me, I just cannot understand why the filmmakers would think that these scenes are a good idea or add anything to the emotional cache of the picture. Overall, I was extremely disappointed in "All Summers End". To be honest, I didn't have huge expectations for the film going in, but it failed to even clear that low bar. Despite being filled with talented actors, this one never gets off the ground and makes an emotional connection. Without any action or mystery, then, that is a death knell for this type of experience.

Not what I expected when I watched it. The person harping that nothing works, I'm sorry it didn't connect with you. Maybe the story was too drab and you can find yourself some edgy screenplay of a transitioning 9 year old oppressed minority to indulge in. I personally found this story to be much more raw and honest than expected. I was expecting the cliche drama points. I think this story came from a place of truth from the writer. There were too many moments that didn't feel scripted. Moments, that as I writer, I know what the formula would tell me to do. What the table of writers would pitch as the next scene. But this felt organic. Like someone's real diary of a summer being played out. That was refreshing, that like real life, I didn't know exactly what would happen next. As for the acting, I think anyone that thinks it was tacky missed what the actors did here. It's like when someone hates an actor for playing the unlikable character so well. It's because they're a good actor, that you don't like them. Don't fail to recognize that. And with teen emotion.. teenagers are emotional, irrational, annoying, unsensible at times. And raw. Tye and the girl (I'm sorry I'm terrible with names) nailed it. The amount of raw emotion they brought into these scenes is truly on another level. If you were to watch true young teens going through these circumstances, it would be loud, raw, maybe annoying. It wouldn't be perfectly delivered platitudes from confident handsome young adults that always know the right thing to say. It would be what you saw in this film. They captured reality. And can you do anything else as an actor? Is not that the highest goal of a story teller? Thinking about how many takes they had to carry that emotion and still have it. If I didn't already know these two actors and the futures they would have after this film, I'd surely have them on my radar for up and coming stars. Well done you two. You put in serious work for these parts emotionally, and it hasn't gone unnoticed.
