‘Will & Harper’ A Beautiful Road Trip

“Will & Harper” isn’t just a film – it’s a rollercoaster ride through the heart of friendship, with comedy legend Will Ferrell and his longtime collaborator Harper Steele at the wheel.

Buckle up for a road trip that’s equal parts hilarious and heartbreaking. Ferrell, playing himself, isn’t just along for the ride – he’s our guide through the uncharted territory of Harper’s gender transition.

Think “Planes, Trains & Automobiles” meets “Boys Don’t Cry,” with a hefty dose of Ferrell’s signature wit.

Harper Steele isn’t just the co-writer – she’s the beating heart of this story.

Her journey from SNL writer’s room to living her truth is raw, real, and revolutionary. It’s not just transition; it’s transformation.

Director Josh Greenbaum doesn’t sugarcoat a thing. He lets Will and Harper’s friendship do the heavy lifting, serving up a cocktail of laughter and tears that’ll leave you emotionally hungover.

The Steeles’ script? It’s a knockout punch of honesty. Every line crackles with authenticity, from gut-busting gags to soul-crushing confessions.

With visuals that’ll make your eyeballs dance and performances that’ll hijack your heart, “Will & Harper” isn’t just a movie – it’s a movement. It’s a rallying cry for the power of friendship to move mountains, change lives, and rewrite the rules of identity.

While the second-act pacing tends to meander, and the film occasionally strays near solipsism, it’s never enough to derail the film from its refreshingly earnest worldview.

Forget the tissue box – bring a whole damn roll. This cinematic sucker punch will have you laughing, crying, and reconsidering everything you thought you knew about friendship, long after the credits roll.

In a world of cookie-cutter comedies, “Will & Harper” is the whole damn bakery. Don’t just watch it – experience it.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
