Pretty solid film overall. The acting was really good, especially from Chloe Grace Moretz, John Gallagher, and Sasha Lane. Like others have said, I do wish they dove a little bit deeper. At some points it feels like they're only scratching the surface. I think the movie definitely could've benefited from being longer. Interesting perspective and glimpse into the crazy world that is conversion therapy centers.

_The Miseducation of Cameron Post_ is a movie that has its pride flag in the right place, but where's its heart? A stellar cast and competent directing make this tale of a young woman sent to a Christian gay conversion camp a worthwhile watch. Like any LGBT film that escapes clichés and portrays members of the community in a favourable light, this film is easy to recommend. That said, the story left me wanting more. More anti gay conversion therapy, more passion, more gayness, more youth, more quirkiness, more humanity, and more Sasha Lane! I'll probably re-watch this film when it's released on blu-ray, and probably still be left wanting more.

The subject matter was cringe worthy. The acting was good. Not sure what audience they were shooting for. Christians will think it was overly simplistic. The queer community will be unsurprised. It really doesn’t add to the conversation between them. Despite the performances, I give this film a 5 out of 10. [Drama]

How is it possible that dealing with such a brutal and cruel situation (forced therapy for the nonexistent "cure" of homosexuality) could have been so simply, lightly and simply. It is as if a window had been opened for a glimpse of daily life, the daily life that emotionally crushes these teenagers, without using the startles or subterfuges of the dramatization of a story. Definitely a find. I began to see the theme, got involved with the performance of little Chloe Grace Moratz and was surprised by the quality of the plot, although I found the recording format rather poor, I believe that, finally, this format (that of TV series). tv) was used to pass the 90's ambiance to the movie, which does not detract from its merit.
