About this movie

An awkward yet intelligent young boy begins to make his transition into adulthood over the course of one transformative summer in this bittersweet coming of age comedy drama. Sensing that he's drifting away from his mother Pam during a summer vacation with her, her domineering boyfriend Trent, and Trent's daughter Steph, 14 year old Duncan gets a job at a water park, and gains some much-needed self-confidence under the guidance of happy-go-lucky water park employee Owen, who approaches life from a fresh new perspective. Steve Carrell, Toni Collette, Allison Janney, and Sam Rockwell star.
