With Honors
Directed by Alek Keshishian
Monty is a student, and when his computer crashes, he's left with only a single paper copy of his thesis. Frightened of losing it, he immediately rushes out to photocopy it, only to stumble and drop it down a grate. Searching the basement of the building, he discovers that it has been found by Simon, a squatter. Simon makes a deal with Monty: for every day's accommodation and food that Monty gives him, he will give a page of the thesis in return.

With Honors Ratings & Reviews
- Nicole Robbins30 October 2025Fantastic film. Great performances, excelling writing.
- klit7522 April 2026Every once in a great while i like to put this on. I don't know if it's nostalgia, the setting, the actors or a combination of them. It's definitely worth a watch if you haven't seen it. If you did and you enjoyed it like i do, definitely worth a rewatch.
- Gregory Hennessey30 March 2026Underrated hidden gem of a college drama. If you liked Good Will Hunting then you will love With Honors.
- mickerdoo9 December 2025Although I liked Pesci, this is a movie that Robin Williams could have pushed up a level. Felt a little hollow in the ending. Liked Dempsey.
- Ecto-1A6 December 2025🌎 Every life leaves a legacy. With Honors is one of those films that many would call good, maybe even great, but to me, it’s one of cinema’s true lost gems, too often overlooked. It tugs at the heartstrings of both the young and the old, capturing the ache of lost loves and the delicate beauty of new beginnings. I’ve watched this film countless times, and every viewing hits me as powerfully as the first. That’s the mark of its strength — the writing, the performances and the care poured in by everyone involved. Set against the slow, reflective burn of the holiday seasons, it becomes the perfect end-of-year watch, inviting quiet introspection as time turns forward. At its core, the film teaches us how to love fully… and, when the moment comes, how to let go. It reminds us that life is precious and fragile, and that it should never be surrendered without a fight.
- George Jr. Benavides23 November 2025One of the best movies I've ever seen when it first came out in theaters, and still watching as if it were the first time. Love it!
- fredbeard5 December 2025Great story. A worthwhile watch. Joe Pesci was very good and a lovable character.
- Lord_Tulkas19 August 2025Nice movie, I honestly didn't expect much from it, but it was a welcomed surprise... Joe Pesci is brilliant, as usual, and the story is engaging... in the line of movies like The Dead Poets Society, just with less drama...
- Chris29 December 2024“Simon B. Wilder Bit it on Wednesday” - Simon B. Wilder Pure 90s mush mush. Fun but heavy performances by Mr. Pesci and even Brandon Fraser made it worth the watch. 😢🍩🍷
