Sun Dogs (2017)
4/10
Not worth the time, I felt

Well, it's a movie with good intentions, but it's just not worth the time. A neurodivergent protagonist, who doesn't seem too consistent with the condition, a smart 'escort' who cannot see through this protagonist and spends seemingly strained but pleasant enough days together (I failed to see the attraction), a too gracious mother who leaves the protagonist for a faraway place to heal others, and a jerk'ish step dad, who ultimately seemed to be the only person left in the protagonist's life.

The moral might be to help others, and so I am helping you, and the movie team - we are all catchers in the rye, some more than others. This movie is for you, if you have all the time in the world, and in a very isolated part of the rye field. It's relevant, yes, but perhaps not for everyone.

I thought it was a below average movie, regardless of intentions.
