Colossal Youth is this indie gem that navigates the tangled emotions of adolescence with a unique blend of comedy and drama. It captures that raw, awkward essence of high school romance, where the protagonist's pursuit of the dream girl feels both silly and profound. The pacing is a bit meandering at times, which lends itself to that dreamy, nostalgic vibe. What stands out is the way it juxtaposes the protagonist's grand gestures against the quiet realization of true love being right under his nose. The performances are heartfelt, not overly polished, which adds to the authenticity. There’s something distinctly relatable about the way it embraces the messiness of young love, making it a noteworthy watch in the genre, though it doesn’t shy away from the lows either.
