Ezra

Max's life is in shambles; the only worthwhile aspect is his son, Ezra, a boy with autism. While he may have messed up everything else, Max is determined to be the best father and protect Ezra. When Max's temper gets him into trouble, he does what he thinks is best for Ezra, and they embark on a road trip. The journey also takes Max down a path of self-reflection and discovery, looking into his relationship with his parents, ultimately bringing him closer to his son.

This is a beautiful film about fathers' bond with their children. The story is emotional, dramatic, and peppered with lighthearted parts. The story does not solely focus on autism but uses it to show that even fathers struggle with doing what is best and questioning their abilities. The movie highlights autism and how it affects caregivers, parents, and people interacting with neurodivergent individuals. The film has a decent runtime but flows efficiently. This movie is excellent for new parents, parents of children with special needs, or anyone looking for an emotional release. Catch it in theaters or stream it as soon as possible.
