Why watch this film?

Steve Carell is mainly known for his more comedic roles, in series like 'The Office' or even in movies like 'The Almighty'. However, besides showing his dramatic character in films like 'Foxcatcher', the actor has already proven that he can be a villain on the big screen. This is the case of the exciting and unexpected 'The Way, Way Back', a dramatic feature film that shows details of the life of a young man (Liam James) from the temporal cut in summer, having to deal with loneliness and, mainly, with the terrible relationship he has with his stepfather (Carell). Beautiful, light and necessary movie.
