As much as I spent part of the film imagining a better version, I’m also still pretty happy with the one we got. This is a funny, heartfelt film about friendship and the process of coming out a little later than most people. 6.9/10
Backspot has a lot of strengths. Primarily, the rendering of its main character and the incredible performance from Jacobs. But the film is a touch uneven and unfocused. 5.8/10

Compared to the other works of one or more Coen brother, this film would rank near the bottom. Luckily, a lesser Coen film is still a decent time. 6.2/10
