This Too Shall Pass is a wonderful update to the classic 80s, coming-of-age adventure with plenty of heart and important life lessons.

4/5

Grant infuses the film with an air of bittersweetness, mirroring life in its fusion of melancholy and laughter. Far more than just another 80s throwback, This Too Shall Pass is an elegantly charming coming-of-age teen comedy.

A spirited, nostalgic, and big-hearted ride that reminds you what it felt like to be young, lost, and free for a weekend.

A funny, bittersweet, messy story of a time that’s, well, funny, bittersweet, and messy, even if the delivery system is at times a nostalgia overload.

This coming-of-age dramedy goes hard on the tiresome 1980s signifiers without coming up with an interesting story or characters worth caring about.

7/10

It may have the same feel and soundtrack of your problematic 80s faves, but Grant’s use of a contemporary lens allows its lessons to hit with honest (albeit lucky) stakes above the nostalgia.
