Not much that is new


Lords of Anarchy (2017)

Directed by Bruce Thierry Cheung this film also known as “Don't Come Back from the Moon” stars Jeffrey Wahlberg, Rashida Jones and James Franco. A sixteen year old boy living in a desert town struggles to deal with his father leaving when work dries up.

There is plenty to enjoy about this come of age tale even if none of it is especially new. From the description of the novel that this film is based on it seems there may have been some magic lost in the adaptation to the big screen. Ultimately this is a decent but unremarkable coming of age tale.

3/5
