Review of Off to the Army


I just love this story. It reminds me of high school. Not in a way I've gotten through books, movies, anything. I mean I really feel my friends in high school, and us driving around talking about stuff. Once again, because it's radio it's probably moreso true than it would be in a movie, because I imagine these guys looking like MY friends.

And the way Sean's best friend is frank w/him. Maybe that also hits home for me and reminds me of old high school friends.

It flows naturally from scene to scene, and feels effortless. And it's sad without being too obvious.

One thing I will say is that it's unclear what happened to Sean. I'm afraid that "Sean left us" means he passed away although I hope it just means he left for the army. I will find out soon from Tatiana.
