Four overachieving high school friends find their perfect college-bound lives upended by a single, reputation-shattering summer in the sharp comedy-drama "Good Kids". Once the undisputed kings and queens of their class, the academically gifted quartet, led by Nicholas Braun and Zoey Deutch, return from their freshman year of college to discover they are now considered painfully uncool relics. Determined to reclaim their social status and experience the wild adolescence they missed, they embark on a misguided mission to reinvent themselves over one chaotic coastal summer. Their plan quickly spirals beyond their control, pulling them into a world of parties, questionable decisions, and encounters with unpredictable locals, including a free-spirited girl played by Julia Garner. Directed by Chris McCoy, the film blends cringe-worthy humor with genuine heart as these "good kids" navigate the messy gap between who they were and who they want to become, all while their watchful parents, Ashley Judd and Demian Bichir, loom in the background. This R-rated coming-of-age story explores the universal panic of changing identities and the perilous quest for a second chance at a first impression.
