This isn't the best movie of all time — neither the best of the year. But 20th Century Women is really a movie to remember. Very meaningful, well written, directed, and wholeheartedly edited. Although it didn't get enough recognition, it's a movie that I'd recommend to anyone, and I'm glad to say: specially to women. I'm not saying it was underrated, but it didn't get enough buzz as it actually should.

What a fantastic movie! It's complex, evocative, and intimate. Well deserving of it's Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay. The acting is complex and fully formed: Annette Bening is superb, Elle Fanning and Luca Jade Zumann belie their age giving seasoned performances, Billy Crudup and Greta Gerwig complete an ensemble of amazingly drawn characters. Some of the cinematic choices were unexpected but appropriate to the period. Mike Miles mined the depth of the era in which he grew up and portrayed it quintessentially. I can't say enough about how good this movie is. I give it a 9.5 (next to perfect) out of 10.

Mike Mills' semi autobiographical character says he was unable to explain his mother to his children. He has the same difficulty in this film. Watch Almost Famous instead.

20th Century Women is one of the great films of 2016 that went completely under the wire. The cast is great with Annette Bening leading the way and the story is a great complex semi-autobiographical piece about being raise by a unorthodox family.

I loved everything about this film! The story, script, performances, cinematography editing and the soundtrack were all superb. It really captured the times.

I was watching it quite late at night, so I thought I might have to stop it after the first hour and come back to it, but it held my attention all the way to the end.

So how come I'd never heard of it before?

A wonderful cast bring to life the intelligently written script. Funny, sad, awkward, meandering... all facets of life are here, in a film that will remain with me for some time.

A very inspiring movie filled with strong women. I loved how down to earth and real it was. It was fun to see how Jamie got shaped by all these different women who all have different beliefs and lifestyles.

Although I think the movie wasn't made really commercial, I think the message should be because it's a really good story. The actors were great. I loved Elle Fanning, I haven't seen her do a character like Julie before, but she did great! Although I might prefer her doing a "sweeter" character. Lucas Jade Zumann was so good as well. This is his first movie I saw and I loved him. I think his characterJamie made a major character change throughout the film, which I really appreciated.

I really recommend this very inspiring, beautiful and real movie.

Second viewing, and this movie is an all-timer for me. Beautifully shot, wonderfully acted. Captures an aching sort of nostalgia that tends to ping me quite a lot when a move can tap into it.

Nails the ending but it’s so painful to get through. Dragged out and pretentious, just all around very american which will get me rolling my eyes every time. American filmmakers have a hard time making movies that transcend their own insufferable self-obsessed experience.

I really really really wanted to like this film more than I did. It fell way short of what it wanted to be.

**Loved this one! Especially Dorothea and Abbie.**

I really enjoyed how this movie talks about how men should be raised. Also, I found the narration of a character’s life to feel a lot like Slaughterhouse-Five, and I loved that.
