I’m not sure exactly how to review this film. I enjoyed it while watching, it is humourous and fun, but it is also a bit odd, and by giving away details I may ruin your enjoyment.
The film revolves around the Cobb family[1] Justin in particular. He is the thumbsucker of the title, and because he a teenage there are quite a few people who would like him to take his thumb out of his mouth for good.
I suppose it is a coming of age film, although we don’t really get any solutions, that is the point. There are no real answers to life, we just live. Doesn’t mean we have to stop asking, just that we are never going to come up with one definitive answer.
