I’ve been active on the internet for the last 15 years, minimum. After elementary school, I’d go home, go into the computer room, and log onto MSN and talk the night away. It was a routine, it was the way that I survived. At the time, I was an anxious little child – unaware of what was truly going on, even less aware of who I might end up becoming.

This is Jerrod Carmichael’s directorial debut, and along with Ari Katcher and Ryan Welch (who helped create Ramy), the film finds a wonderful balance of humour and sorrow. Walking the tight rope of being obscene and honesty.

I’ve told a few people and I included this film in one of the films I was most looking forward to, and I’m so excited to say that it didn’t disappoint in the slightest. This may be one of my new favourites of the year.

I don’t remember the last time I watched something that I found so absolutely charming as this film was. In order for me to speak properly about my feelings on the film, this review will have mild spoilers (regarding my overall feelings of the film, not the actual plot of the film). I will indicate where the spoilers begin, so feel free to read up to those moments.
