‘Booksmart’: A Fun Coming-of-Age Comedy
Wilde’s coming-of-age comedy directorial debut is simultaneously hilarious and entertaining, and remarkably heartfelt and relatable.

A group of friends who grew up in the same neighborhood find it difficult to live where they were born and raised due to rising rents caused by the interest of wealthy people in their neighborhood. After all of their neighbors are forced to leave the neighborhood one by one, the final straw comes when Latif, one of the most beloved residents of the neighborhood, is evicted from his home by his landlord. Determined to transform their neighborhood back into a place where working-class people and ordinary folks could live, the residents rolled up their sleeves to stop the destruction of both their neighborhood and their past. What initially seemed like an easy plan ended up dragging them into an unexpected and hilarious adventure.
