To me, this movie is perfection.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

I was drawn in by the synopsis and how it simply sounded like a horror movie that was connecting the dots and going to a next logical place. It was a well done reflection of where we are and modern fears. It also did a great job establishing the characters. The setting they were in was also thankfully unapologetic and nonjudgmental. Highly entertaining and very well put together!
