At the beginning, you think “maybe it won’t be just a clichéd story about Timberlake’s friendship with the little boy”, and in the end you’re glad that’s exactly what it was. Palmer is a little relationship movie with heart and an excellent Juno Temple in the supporting role of the endlessly high mother.

One of those typical heart-warming films about an unlikely friendship that brings together two people who on paper have nothing in common. In this particular case, it’s an ex-convict played by Justin Timberlake and a young kid with transsexual tendencies played by the newcomer Ryder Allen. Nice, but nothing special.

Thematically similar to Gifted, although it felt a bit more oppressive to me, even though I don't remember that film so well. The forty-year-old Timberlake no longer has to prove that he can act, and I would like to see him in something that more people will see, but he is excellent, and especially in this slow season, I would not hesitate to recommend him for an Oscar nomination. It's really just a small festival movie, but it fits perfectly into the Apple TV+ library, and if you're paying for it, it's a must in this content drought. And if you also got it for free for a year, then after a month, turn it on again and give Palmer a chance. He deserves it... 80%

Growing up for rednecks, without DiCaprio, but with a fantastic performance by Timberlake, for whom "the older the better" applies like for some of his more famous colleagues. It's a bit saccharine in places, and it's not a tried-and-true older vintage, but thank goodness for any film like this, dealing with the intricacies of ordinary rural life. Still raw and focused enough to satisfy even the moderately demanding viewer who has seen a bit.

I’m not a huge fan of Justin Timberlake’s music, but as an actor, he’s definitely one of the best in Hollywood right now. That said, Palmer turned out to be a pretty standard drama about a guy with a troubled past and a kid whose mom is a mess, so he ends up bonding with the lead character. It’s classic indie American drama territory—solid performances all around, especially from Juno Temple, but nothing groundbreaking. I watched the whole thing feeling a bit jaded, since I’ve seen this type of social drama play out so many times before.
