Scott is a classic case of arrested development living in his mother’s basement, smoking lots of weed and dreaming of opening the world’s first ‘dine-in-tattoo parlour’. As his sister heads off to college, Scott’s mother Margie decides to re-enter the world of dating. When Margie starts seeing a fireman, this brings back memories for Scott whose own fire-fighting father passed away on the job.

★★★★ “It’s the world according to Pete Davidson as the ‘SNL’ star and director Judd Apatow mine details from Davidson’s real-life to create a comic knockout with an emotional punch you do not see coming.” Rolling Stone
