* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Despite being a movie about the growth of a young boy into a young adult, there are little to no points in the movie where any of the main characters reflect on or refer to events that happened beforehand, which may have further contributed to Mason's character development.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: Some may understandably believe that the film is for kids. It's about a boy who grows to become a teenager! It isn't, though. It features a lot of swearing, sex references, drug use and more, so it's certainly not for kids. Rated R for a reason.
