Wendy (Dakota Fanning) sees things differently: She¹s fiercely independent, with a brilliant mind and a mischievous sense of hilarity. Wendy also has autism. To her, people are an indecipherable code and the world¹s a confusing place. She¹s always had a hard time figuring it all out and she just wants a chance to be accepted just like everybody else. But inspired by no-nonsense caregiver Scottie (Academy Award® Nominee Toni Collette), Wendy comes of age and escapes from her care home on the road-trip of a lifetime to deliver her 500-page Star Trek script to a Hollywood competition.

Dakota Fanning very realistically portrays an autistic girl, but the storyline doesn’t differ from every typical road movie. Three stars are enough for this kind of a film.

I was annoyed by how Toni Collette and Alice Eve’s acting skills were put to waste. With this pair of actresses, the creators could have easily taken it to a whole other level. This way, the whole story was solely based on Dakota Fanning’s excellent performance, without any other storylines, which I think was a shame. Since the protagonist of the film was socially impaired, I wiggled my ears out of joy and added an extra star, as the theme is close to my heart.
