Ricky is a charming independent film - it is a story about working hard towards something you thought you always wanted, only later on to realize that you don't really want it after all. You go on Ricky's journey of growth and are there with him in dealing with his own insecurities and watch as he rises above them and finds confidence and empowerment within himself. You find yourself being able to relate to the characters and I thought the group of kids who were snobby and insensitive were hilarious (yet we all secretly wanted to be a part of their world) and we all I think can relate to Ricky during various points of the film. Not going to lie, there is a somewhat awkward scene about massage parlors in the film along with a strip club scene but other than that, check it out if you're bored at home and want some time to kill :)
