5.7 / 10 · TMDB

In small-town British Columbia, Canada, awkward teen Mike Drinkwater has trouble fitting in and is bullied by his antagonist and rival: wealthy school jock, Luke Ryan. While Mike's offbeat father, Hank, spends more time defrauding the government than being a role model; Hank is dealing with his own longstanding condemnation by Luke's father Wesley Ryan, which seems to fuel Luke's hostility towards Mike. Enter Wallace, a young girl from the United States who is adjusting to life in a new place while recovering from her own personal tragedy. Wallace's strength of character helps transform her life and the lives of the people around her.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a coming-of-age comedy by contrasting adolescent insecurity with adult inadequacy, relying on the small-town Canadian setting as a perfect backdrop. It explores familiar archetypes with a gentle, observant humor that feels authentic rather than forced.

What lingers after the credits is a sense of quiet optimism—a reminder that resilience and unexpected connections can spark change in the most ordinary places. The characters' small victories feel earned and genuinely touching. — MovieFinder Editorial
