"1984. It was a simple time ... then things got hard."

In a working-class town in 1984, a high school senior's future creates a tug-of-war between his no-nonsense father and his crackpot guidance counselor until an encounter with a goddess helps him uncover his true destiny.

Average watch, might watch again, and can't recommend. This really should have been a great coming of age story similar to "American Pie", but it's mostly empty. While there is great character connection amongst the cast, and the story is actually a great concept of a guy torn between worlds, but I honestly don't feel like it has a point other than proposing philosophical quandry. Yes, there is some humor and decent production value, as well as plenty of multi-threading, however, I just didn't enjoy the movie much. Hopefully someone else does enjoy this.
