Boyhood - Mindblowing

Director Richard Linklater who gave us the awesome 'Before Midnight',Before Sunset' and 'Before Sunrise' has taken this movie into a different movie making altogether, something never seen or experienced before for sure to the best of my knowledge. The movie depicts the life of a young boy, Mason, from age 5 to age 18, so the movie is actually filmed from year 2002 to 2014 i.e.over 12 years with the same cast and this is what sets it apart from the rest. BOYHOOD is an excellent ode to growing up and parenting, loved every bit of it. Ellar Coltrane as Mason is sheer joy to watch. Ethan Hawke and Patricia Arquette as Mason's parents and newcomer Lorelei Linklater as his sister Samantha are simply brilliant. Loved the way the film captures the essence the rocky terrain of childhood like no other film has before. Snapshots of adolescence right from road trips and family dinners to birthdays and graduations and all the moments in between become memories one carries for lifetime. Life is all about the moments that makes memories..why not make them beautiful at least most of the time :) This movie is an experience ..don't miss it :) Recommended :)
