Not great, but Rye grows on you. Cooper is terrific as Salinger.

Boston Herald
A well-meant if tender-headed morsel of a young man's road trip from Pennsylvania to New Hampshire in search of the elusive J. D. Salinger in a sketchily realized 1969.

The film's send-up of youthful obsession is sweet and funny, and its depiction of first love and buried pain is moving.

3 stars out of 4 -- [A] warm-spirited romantic drama that benefits from James Sadwith’s confident writing and direction, especially the appealing performances he gets from his two young leads, Alex Wolff and Stephania LaVie Owen.

The film is undermined by distracting elements, like scenes in which Jamie breaks the fourth wall and addresses the camera directly with snarky asides. [Full review in Japanese]

It's not quite coming of age, but it's definitely growing up a bit.
