Our take

Timothée Chalamet gives one of his best performances as the college-bound student derailed by drugs in this heartrending drama from Felix Van Groeningen. With stellar support from Steve Carell, playing Chalamet’s out-of-his-depth dad, Beautiful Boy is an unflinching look at the cycles of addiction.
