Director and writer Mike Mills has once again done and made a personal film that speaks to viewers. As "C'mon C'mon" is one touching feel good emotional drama journey that shows love and connection between kids and adults. A young boy Jesse(Woody Norman)gets to see a glimpse of the country and other lives. Now here is how the story connects Johhny(Joaquin Phoenix("Joker")) is a lonely divorced New York city radio journalists who travels the country interviewing kids, and his sister Viv(Gabby Hoffman) who lives in L. A. hasn't spoke much to John since their mother's death, and Gab has problems of her own as her husband and his mental health is gripping however 9 year old Jesse(Norman) keeps them connected. Then the film opens and pops up wide when John decides to be an uncle and much needed parent figure to little Jesse, and despite his bruised home life Jesse is open minded with thought and wit and when arriving in New York city to be with John the relationship is tested, yet slowly grows on a rich life like journey in which Jesse sees other kids and culture. Really this picture is moving, touching and a blend of life and art as it proves during a journey one connects, learns, and has experiences.
