In 2025, IP remains king. As it seems to be the age of the superhero's blockbuster (unless Marvel can really fix its sick Chinese universe before it's too late) Studies are turning to other existing properties for selling film tickets, with video games as if they can become the next big font of Hollywood - though "Border Territories" become the largest bomb of 2024 Don't fight well. However, if video games fail, you can bet that studios will find something you already know and repackage, even if that is literally already a movie.

It would be silly to write off all projects based on the existing IP as inherently bad. But we are clear in the golden age of repetition of things that really should not be repeated. Case in point: Harry Potter Restart Series, which seemed like a turning point for our nostalgia obsessed monoculture When it was published in 2023 (along with the endangered "twilight"). This is why, when a really original idea comes up, it's nice to see it has been rewarded.

We do not always reward the original ideas with our attention. A streaming platform for the "Creator" is required, One of the most ambitious scientific films of the decade to finally find an audience. But then, just because the idea is original doesn't necessarily mean it's good. In the case of Richard Linklater's "childhood", however, not only was the idea good, we were actually paying attention. In fact, we paid enough attention to make one of just a few films to collect 100 of 100 score MetacryticWhat makes the best viewed film from this century to the date on the platform.

Like all good ideas, the concept of "childhood" is simple without being simplistic. Written and directed by Richard Linklater, the film follows Elar Coltrain, Mason Evans Runior of 6 to 18, turning his adolescence into a story as convincing as any blockbuster spectacle. The pitch is that the Linklater actually shot the film for 11 years, returning Coltrain and his co-stars to create a film that follows the same characters that the same actors play as they age at the time. Co-Glumi Patricia Arquette as Mason's mother, Olivia Evans, Ethan Hawk as his father, Mason Evans, and her own daughter of Linklater, Loreli, as his sister, Samantha, "Girl" is a real moving portrait of her childhood and adolescence His release in 2014.

Those views were so stalled that the "guy" now brings an impressive 100 result of Metacaktic. What makes this particularly impressive is it, unlike Rotten tomatoes, which because of its non -fully coherent percentage system, maintain only two "perfect" science filmsMetascore of Metacrytic actually allows a certain shade in the overall rating of film. Instead of binary between "fresh" and "spoiled", the metaque is based on what page describes how "an average of top critics and publications reviews". That is, the curators of the site actually take the results given by critics and convert them into a result of 100 (for those inspectors without results, the curators award the result they consider to be fair to the feelings of the work).

It is all to say that 100 on Metacrytic is a different job in its full ratings of 100% spoiled tomatoes, and in fact means that critics have given the film perfect ratings. As such, Linklater can be truly proud of his achievement with "boyfriend".
