Thumbsucker is a slow, but entrancing slice of life movie. Justin is a 17-year old thumbsucker who is trying to "change." Everyone around him has sound advice that they don't take themselves. The acting is very good and so is the writing. The film doesn't take any easy outs, like harping on the thumbsucking too much. The cast is good with a couple of young newcomers starring with Vincent D'Onofrio and Vince Vaughn, who look a lot alike. Surprisingly, Keanu Reeves does a good job and is especially hot at the end.
1 star - Total crap!
2 stars - Bad movie, but decent time killer.
3 stars - Pretty solid. Good Sunday afternoon flick. I might even watch it again.
4 stars - Worth watching. I really liked it!
5 stars - Top notch! I loved it and you will too!
