"The Way, Way Back is the follow-up from Nat Faxon and Jim Rash, the guys who wrote the Oscar-winning screenplay for The Descendants and who are now teaming up on directing duties. The cast is top-notch: Steve Carell, Sam Rockwell, Toni Collette, Allison Janey, Maya Rudolph, Rob Corddry, Amanda Peet, and AnnaSophia Robb of The Carrie Diaries. And they're not even the lead, which goes to 16-year-old Liam James, who you might recognize from AMC's The Killing."
"James plays Duncan, a quiet, awkward teenager forced to spend the summer at the beach with his mom and her new boyfriend. Things pick up for Duncan when he lands a job at a waterpark, where Rockwell takes him under his wing."
