Dinner in America
AroView: Kyle Gallner and Emily Skeggs lend plenty of charisma to this stroppy-sweet black comedy as an on-the-lam punk rocker and an awkward young woman who is secretly obsessed with his band.
A brazen and often hilarious portrait of (ironic) toxic masculinity that gives way to a sweet love story between two misfits, this plays it mostly straight from the American indie movie playbook, but has an absolute blast while doing so.
“It’s honestly one of the best dark comedies I’ve seen in years, and I can’t wait to watch it again.” ~Lorry Kikta, Film Threat
