This unique father-son road trip movie stars Bobby Cannavale, Robert DeNiro, Rose Byrne and newcomer William Fitzgerald, who, like the character he plays, is living with autism. Cannavale delivers a compassionate and moving performance as a father who will stop at nothing to help his beloved son thrive. Director Tony Goldwyn (Oppenheimer, Scandal, Ghost) never gets in the way of the film’s sure-handed script.

“What keeps the story sweet is the chemistry between Cannavale and Fitzgerald, who build a bond worth cherishing.” — Natalia Winkelman, The New York Times
“The film is a tender and touching ode to the Ezras of the world, and the people who love them.” — Emma Keates, The AV Club
