Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I go to this sort of show to see what people are saying about us. I liked it. I find that quite a few of my autistic friends did as well. This reaction is not universal. There are many things that reviewers in the autistic community find fault with. I concur on many points, especially the physical transformation of the protagonist, but not so much as to dim my overall appreciation. As well, the sound+light+stim sensory scenes have been a real challenge for me, especially when I first saw this film in a theatre. I loved what they did with the puzzle piece, which is often hated in the adult Autistic community for reasons that wouldn't fit here. There were myriad other touches that spoke "my tribe" to me. The revelation of the actual identity of the other most important female character evoked tears. I'll watch it again. EDIT: I've now seen this piece five times. There is something new to notice every time. (My particular sensory processing issue means that lots of details will escape me, as it takes me quite a while to interpret what I'm looking at. Going grocery shopping with me is reportedly a difficult experience.)
