Grade: A+
“It’s Kind of a Funny Story” is one of the most underrated films out right now. The plot follows the trials and tribulations of a depressive teenager played by Keir Gilchrist, who voluntarily commits himself to a psychiatric ward. Emma Roberts proves she is one of the few actresses to be on the lookout for. Zach Galifianakis is hilarious as a supporting character who teaches Gilchrist how to appreciate life. With its realistic and gritty portrayal of teenage life, the film succeeds at shedding light on the teen psyche.
