Gimly
I pretty much never turn down a movie that purports to be in the "Fucked-Up-Coming-of-Age-Movie" category, and rarely am I disappointed. _Mean Creek_ does absolutely nothing to buck that trend, being a completely engaging movie that I started recommending to people before I'd even finished watching it. _Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go._
