About the film: 1h46min - Coming of Age Drama - PG-13 - English

The film, based on Judy Blume's 1970 novel, centers on 11-year-old Margaret Simon as she navigates the challenges of adolescence after moving from New York City to a New Jersey suburb. While the story touches on religious themes due to Margaret's interfaith family background, the primary focus is on her personal growth, including her experiences with puberty, friendships, and the evolving dynamics with her parents. The film portrays the complexities of parent-teen conversations, especially as Margaret seeks understanding and connection during a pivotal time in her life.

Critics have praised the film for its honest and humorous depiction of adolescence and family relationships. The performances, particularly by Abby Ryder Fortson as Margaret and Rachel McAdams as her mother, have been highlighted for their depth and authenticity. Overall, the movie is celebrated for its heartfelt exploration of growing up and the importance of open communication between parents and teens.
