A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

I loved this show when Season 1 came out. I loved the 80's music because I am a huge fan. I am 16 and I felt that teenagers were really being represented in the right way. Most teens hate pop music and do not listen to it. I felt very similar to Clay Jensen and I was really impacted by this show. I am not the typical teen though. From a very young age I have never had an interest in having a social media presence. I had no idea how awful social media could potentially be until this show came out. I had only heard rumors and stories until watching the show. The central mystery of why Hannah killed herself keeps you interested throughout the whole first season. I could not stop watching because you have to know what Clay did wrong and why he deserved a tape. Tapes are sadly a very inventive way to say why you killed yourself and I hope that it is not repeated in the modern world. There is a lot of discussion as to whether or not 13 Reasons Why glorifies suicide and I have never understood how it has. The directors show the physical and mental pain that Hannah goes through during each episode when someone lets her down. Her heart is broken over and over again and then finally her spirit is broken. Suicide rates have climbed amongst teens because of phones. Some of the damage done to Hannah definitely comes from the presence of phones. Phones definitely make people feel lonely and it is not a good thing. People are not social anymore and people live in a fake world through Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter. 13 Reasons Why does a really good job of showing the empty pit of loneliness that you can feel in high school.When I watched Season 2, I expected the fallout of Season 1 and the trial of course, but I also did not expect other things. I will not go into those things for those who have not watched the show, but I was somewhat disappointed by the writing direction. The writers made a conscious decision to change or alter Hannah's backstory through the views of other people and it definitely did not work for some of the characters. Not having the book as a fallback made the show veer in weird, strange directions in regards to Tyler. The second season introduces a place called the Clubhouse which is for the best because it was a big shout-out to the Me Too Movement. I just worry that 13 Reasons Why is now only trying to shock viewers rather than deliver a convincing, thought out story. The acting in both seasons has been amazing and even the new cast members are phenomenal. I think my massive problem with season 2 was the plot and Clay was not the central character as much which pissed me off. Clay was the main character in Season 1 and I do not feel as if he is in it as much as he should be in this one. Plot threads concern more on the people Hannah blames for her death. There are a few pairings of actors that work extremely well in Season 2 that did not happen in Season 1. That was a pleasant surprise, but Season 2 is not in the same league as Season 1. Not by a long shot. I hope Season 3 is amazing, but with Katherine Langford leaving, I do not know how the show will be. I am still a huge fan and I cannot wait to see what it will be like. On another note, I would not suggest this show for anybody under 14-15. This show is really important for teens to watch though. There are a few gruesome scenes, but it is really important and perfectly signifies how our culture is right now.

I don't want to say too much because people who haven't watched it yet should read this. The last episode needs its own trigger warning. It needed a whole pause before the seen and a very clear trigger warning. It was too graphic and too much to deal with.. .God knows when i could get that image out of my head.

I have to say that this show really touched me and I "enjoyed" watching it as in I cared what happened to the characters. But I also think that it definitely isn't helping people who struggle with issues addressed in this show. I felt like it was just a little bit too dramatic to be realistic. It's a great show if you watch it just for entertainment but if you really expect anything more from it, then it will let you down. After all it's still a commercial product.

My one question, is why didn't Bryce get the tapes? He was tape 12, did the most awful things to Jessica and Hannah yet the tapes skipped being given to him and clay took them to the councillor (tape 13) instead. Have I missed something?
