In 2008, during the last month of summer before high school begins, an impressionable 13-year-old Taiwanese American boy learns what his family can't teach him: how to skate, how to flirt, and how to love your mom.
- James Saenz2026年6月9日“you’re pretty cute for an asian.” this is MY lady bird this is MY mid90s this is MY eighth grade. this was made specifically for my age group and demographic, stupid ass asian teenage boys growing up in 2008. there’s so much in the comedy that’s this wonderfully balanced mix of teenage stupidity, asian american upbringing, and situational comedy. the theater was cracking up and there were so many moments where my friends and i were physically cringing at this kid dig a deeper and deeper hole for himself. but that’s part of being a teenager, is fucking up and learning from all of the messy moments. we all have had those moments of isolation and awkwardness, where all we seek is for some sort of belonging in others as the world begins to show vestiges of the reality of growing up. beneath that layer of wonderfully nostalgic comedy is a moving view of the asian american household and the generational outlooks on life. we see dìdi’s grandmother, mother and older sister all constantly in some form of conflict with each other, whether it’s ideological or generational or even cultural. we also see them at odds with dìdi, and this complex household dynamic that also has to exist within the complex societal dynamics of american culture and asian american communities. one of my friends pointed out a beautiful moment, a rare one where dìdi is not the focus of the scene, where it pans over left to right from the grandmother laying down to the mother standing beside her to the sister sitting at her feet. they are in the foreground while didi is in the background. we are, like him, observing a physical connection between these influential women in his life, and the generational divide that time and location have on a family, the women specifically. it’s one of the first sobering moments he has, the other being an argument beforehand between dìdi’s grandmother and mother that he eavesdrops on, and it’s his sister who shakes him from that heartbreaking trance and rescues him from that environment. each relationship that he has with the women in his family holds meaning for him. the fact that the apotheosis of the film’s themes is in its final scene, where for dìdi realizing and accepting that growing up is appreciating his mother, was such a poignant and beautiful moment before the credits roll. i love this film so much.
- Kevin Ward2025年7月2日Incredibly authentic feeling coming of age drama about a young asian adolescent getting ready to start high school. He falls out with his close friends group and starts testing out new waters for what identity he takes with him into his high school years. He pursues his crush and F̶a̶c̶e̶b̶o̶o̶k̶/Myspace stalks her, takes on skateboarding and filming, and generally just tries whatever he can to be liked. At the same time, he has an adversarial relationship with his sister who is leaving for college soon and a mother that he largely disregards, seemingly wishing she didn’t exist or at the very least, would just leave him alone. There’s a so much relatable about his journey. There’s plenty of humor and loads of cringe. But with all of his failed attempts at redefining himself, he defines himself….and maybe realizes his mom and his sister aren’t so bad after all.
- rg94002024年11月1日Didi perfectly captures the feeling of being on the cusp of high school during 2008. It matches up with when I was entering high school, and I was impressed at how much Sean Wang was able to capture, whether it was the technology at the time, the slang, or my own personal experiences of growing up as a second-generation immigrant with social anxiety. The movie begins with a very lighthearted tone with plenty of humor, but it becomes a lot more somber as it goes along. Even though it is centered around the autobiographical story of the director via the main character Chris, it also manages to explore the relationships between other members of his family in the background. In particular, I thought Joan Chen as his mother did a fantastic job, and I found her character to be my favorite. It's a sweet movie that just plops the viewer down into this summer as it unfolds. Whether Sean Wang is showing the way his characters use the computer or the old-school filming of skateboarding, he is effortlessly able to capture the experience visually even if it isn't the flashiest cinematography. I just wish the movie gave us a bit more with the ending because it felt a bit abrupt.
