Thank you Chandler Levack for making the autistic character not likeable. In all the previous movies I have watched where the lead character is autistic, the character has always made to be portrayed as a good person. This gives an impression that all autistic people are likable, which far from the reality. Here, Lawrence acts like an entitled prick to his mother, self-centered to Alana, and overtly narcissistic to Matt. This lack of understanding and lack of ability to put yourself in other's shoes is lacking in Lawrence which is a major sign for his autism. In the last 10 min, he starts to learn how to listen, which ends the movie on a positive note.
