'Sugar Water' is this interesting blend of comedy and coming-of-age that's really worth a look. The film dives into themes of self-image and friendship through the eyes of Tomboy, a girl feeling the pressures of societal beauty standards. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it kind of adds to that awkward charm of the early 80s. It has this quirky atmosphere, with performances that feel genuineāespecially the dynamic between Tomboy and her friend. The practical effects in the surgery scenes are surprisingly effective for its budget, drawing you into her conflicted journey. Itās not a perfect film, but it captures a certain rawness thatās hard to find in more polished productions.
