I thought it was an absolutely dreadful film that most "film makers" will think is great for all the wrong reasons. The guy playing Mason is the worst thing. Illustrating how bad directors/producers think anyone can act just by being natural and themselves. Wrong. How they don't need a script. Wrong. How they don't need a plot. Wrong.
As a documentary it is as bad as 7UP was superb. Great, great TV series with the same basic concept but clever - different kids grow up different ways into different adults.
I suspect it will win loads of awards and be totally forgotten in a few years.

A superficial film for ordinary people. I hated it - which probably means it will win loads of Oscars.
