mid90s on the surface is a skateboard coming of age film set in the 1990s, but if one goes deeper it's far more about building an extended family from your friends when your traditional family structure is lacking. Stevie (Sunny Suljic) is a 13-year-old kid who has a broken relationship with his brother and mother and is at an age that he needs some sort of family around him to guide him during his teenage years. To that end, Stevie befriends a group of skateboarders in Ruben, Ray, Fuckshit, and Fourth Grade. They step in as his replacement family and introduce him to a life that is full of little rules, adult-like experiences, and brotherhood that he's never known.

Director Damien Chazelle (Whiplash, La La Land) takes on the very personal story of Neil Armstrong (Ryan Gosling) as he makes his way from pilot to the NASA program on his path to being the first man to set foot on the moon. The journey is a tightly shot, brutal exploration into what it takes to achieve your goals and how easily life can't seemingly break a man during that journey. Anchoring Armstrong back to Earth is his steadfast, non-shrinking violet wife, Janet Shearon (Claire Foy) who makes it clear that in order to be a true hero of history, one needs to remain connected to one's humanity while even aiming for the stars.
