Kicking and Screaming

  • Log in or register to post comments

In this irreverent 90s comedy, we follow a group of friends who have recently graduated from college and are facing the harsh reality of adulthood. As the outside world pushes them towards new responsibilities, they prefer to cling to the comfort of their student life. Jake, the protagonist, is a young man who feels lost, trapped in a routine of apathy and indecision. Instead of pursuing his professional path, he spends his time with his best friends, Charles, Max, and Samuel, who share his reluctance to leave behind their carefree college life.

As the group grapples with their fears and the social pressure to find jobs and become "adults," they begin to confront their uncertainties in funny and absurd ways. The conversations are always a whirlwind of irony, reflections on the future, and a bunch of excuses to do nothing. The arrival of a new love interest and the search for a job lead Jake to question his own choices and the direction he wants to take in life.

With a witty style of humor and dialogues steeped in sarcasm, this film captures the angst and confusion of that transitional stage, turning it into a hilarious yet reflective journey. In the end, the friends must decide whether to continue clinging to their youth or take the risk to step into responsibility and adulthood.
