The Peanut Butter Falcon: Meet Your New Family

Rating: 7.6/10

Moving and personal, The Peanut Butter Falcon uses genuine characters to tell a story about the potential kindness of unlikely people and the importance of keeping dreams afloat.

Highlights: 

• Zack Gottsagen's heartwarming performance

• Funny and real dialogue

• Watching makes you a better person

Lowlights: 

• Unrealistically idyllic ending

• Comparatively shallow character development of Eleanor

• Your unavoidably deep investment in the characters

The Peanut Butter Falcon is a film guaranteed to make your heart melt -- no matter how long it's been frozen. From the touching innocence of Zak to the complete character development of tough-guy Tyler, The Peanut Butter Falcon's characters have deep backstories and personalities that truly bring them to life. Beautifully filmed, the picture places you in the Deep South right next to Zak and Tyler (and you wouldn't want it any other way). Guaranteed to make even the toughest of the tough tear up, this film is exactly what you want and expect it to be and more.
