“Like Michael Apted in his Seven Up! documentary series, Linklater makes you feel as if you're watching a photograph as it develops in the darkroom.” (Chris Nashawaty, Entertainment Weekly). 12 years is a long time to shoot a movie, and both Scott and Kris think you should spend the two hours and forty-five minutes to see it.
