Instead of depicting a boy's first steps toward manhood -- ceremony aside -- it turns into an uninvolving portrait of self-absorption.

A boy's barmitzvah looks set to be a disaster when it coincides with the 1966 World Cup Final.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.

What are critics saying?
The New York Times by Jeannette Catsoulis
Charts a sentimental struggle toward manhood with period-appropriate charm.
On the plus side is a good cast, including Eddie Marsan and Helena Bonham Carter as Bernie's hapless parents and Stephen Rea as a sympathetic doctor.
TV Guide Magazine by Maitland McDonagh
Though inspired by Weiland's own childhood, the film's plot sticks close to the underdog's coming-of-age formula and is marred by young Bernie's gratingly self-pitying voice-over.
Chicago Tribune by Michael Phillips
It's labeled a "true-ish story," and the results are cheeky fun.
