When tensions mount as the boys begin to realize that life might be taking them all in completely different directions, is also the time that Don Glees’ mixture of tones fully comes together. One moment these three outcasts are meditating on their youth and trying to come to terms with the difficult road ahead… and the next, they are dancing and singing in the light of a bonfire or being swept up in a raging current towards a waterfall. The film does a great job juggling its serious, mature aspirations along with its more childlike playfulness and nail-biting adventure. IS THE FILM ABLE TO JUGGLE ALL OF ITS TONES? This is much more of a reflection on the loss-of-innocence and self-discovery that takes place during the journey into adulthood. And when I say focus, I don’t mean on story… because there is very little of that in Don Glees. It’s not until the movie’s focus tightens, as the boys are thrust into the depths of the forest with no clear way out, that it begins to blossom. These first fifteen minutes or so, feel a bit haphazard in execution as I was struggling to grasp what exactly this film was and where it was going. The film immediately foreshadows its heartbreaking conclusion, preparing us for the worst… and then throws us into a few manic and silly set pieces developing who these characters are. Goodbye Don Glees! starts off a little rocky, as we are introduced to our trio of teenage boys. As disaster strikes their expedition, tensions flare between the friends as they realize that growing up has taken them on wildly different paths in life. One day, when the trio gets blamed for a nearby forest fire, they set off into the woods to prove their innocence. GradeSaver, 12 June 2020 Web.Goodbye, Don Glees! follows teen misfits Roma, Toto, and Drop… Who call themselves the “Don Glees,” an informal name for their backyard adventures.
