I feel like just about everyone will connect with this movie in some way. It's funny, sad, charming and honest. Saoirse Ronan's performance is one of the best of the year. Her chemistry with Laurie Metcalf makes the Mother/Daughter relationship really work. Lucas Hedges and Tracy Letts are both fantastic too. I think every kid in high school should watch this movie.

Edit: I saw this again and it is still my favorite of the Oscar nominations. It really has a way to make you feel like your in high school again. Makes you realize how much you parents do for you and how much I love mine.

Edit 2: I watched this again, twice in two days, this time with my parents. My dad was cracking up at every time Lady Bird was shit talking her mom while my mom didn't think it was that funny. He also said some of the dad's lines literally right before he said them. After it ended my mom said "That's it? I thought she was going to come back and write her mom a check."

Greta Gerwig is such a talented Writer, Director, and Actor. I was so excited to see this movie and was not disappointed. I look forward to everything Greta does and can’t wait to see what’s next.

Lady Bird is a must see in theaters!

I wish I'd seen the same film everyone else on the planet seems to have seen. I suspect the one I saw had gone bad. Maybe it'd been out too long because it was not at all fresh, but a bit stale and a tad bland. I protest! I ordered the same thing everyone else had! As it is, I'm sending this one back.

Jeez, I thought I went crazy for a moment... This movie was a constant stream of... 'I guess that happened', with a little side of 'man, why is this lady such a bitch?'

Normally I wouldn't recommend to watch a movie this terrible, but this a different kind of terrible. If you're a filmmaker you should definetly watch it, because you can easily understand what went wrong with it, and learn from its mistakes. I dind't like anything, from the acting, to the camera movement, the colour grading, the cinematography, the plot, the character arc, not to mention the ending. A regular watcher can't tell what this film is about once it's finished, it's just a normal story. Which is totally fine, not every movie should carry a deeper meaning in it. And a story as such should aim to engage with the audience in an emotional way. Which is the worst part about this movie. It's uncomfortable half of the time, and i wouldn't want to be in it. The pacing was the only thing that was okay and that sustained my attention, other than my interest in understanding why it was so terrible watching it.

@lrenz Indeed its not for the regular watcher,and if you saw nothing but more superficial then adolescent dramas maybe youre a regular watcher :D. THe colour grading and the rest i think its subjective, but if you see no meaning in this movie maybe you should watch it more carefully.

I watched the movie after the amazing reviews with 9s and 10s. Did I watch a different one than these people? Possibly, as this movie was boring and very very bland. Saoirse's performance was great (how do you pronounce this name?), nobody can deny that, but the whole thing lacked something. It felt endless and pointless.

Lady Bird was simply another teenage female coming-of-age film that presents us to nothing new. Definitely had some different interesting cinematography and kind of style. However, it lacks originality plot wise.

This film reminded me of another film I watched just a year ago before this one came out, titled "The Edge of Seventeen." Both films revolve around a female protagonist who goes through this "journey" of trying to fit in and then realizing what is truly important to her in the world. It also has the typical cliche concept of the female protagonist leaving their best friend over a boy. While The Edge of Seventeen seemed a bit more over the top dramatic with Hailee Steinfeld's forced edginess, Lady Bird kept a more realistic reason to have their protagonist in a complex lifestyle.

This movie is definitely way better than all of the other female coming-of-age films, however, it lacked some plot originally and was kept really bland and slow at times, with few unnecessary scenes. For that, I give the film a 6/10.

Ohh, also, Timothée Chalamet is so charming.

Thought I had to watch this because of all the hype and good reviews, but was disappointed in the end. Saoirse was really good and I'm sure will become a top-level star eventually, but that was all that I thought was worthwhile. Acting was generally well done, story was okay, but don't really see it as standing apart on its own as something great.

O filme é simples, mas inegavelmente poderoso. Identifiquei-me fortemente com a resignação da personagem principal e, de certa forma, também com seu egoísmo.

A protagonista forte e extremamente profunda e o final aberto a possibilidades deixa um longa que foge aos clichês comuns. O filme aborda a adolescência, as disparidades sociais e dramas familiares de forma simples, sem um enredo muito inventivo ou que se desvencilhe da realidade.

Sendo assim, é um bom filme; não do tipo que causa uma catarse em seu ápice, mas do tipo que gera um conforto ao longo de toda sua trama.
