Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Wasi Ahmed (electrifier4) When the industry is dominated by crappy superhero films and movies such as The Edge of Seventeen kind of fails to meet it's full potential in the market. I completely missed this film in 2016 and just watched it in 2018. I might have never seen this movie if my friend hadn't mention it and boy was I surprised. When you have overdone cliched teen movies for decades and had completely lost faith in the genre, The Edge of Seventeen was a breath of fresh air. It was fun and charming. Beautifully done cinematography, brilliant set of cast, a strong story and a very well executed film this was. This film really left me with an heartwarming experience. I don't remember the last time I really laughed out loud to a movie and at the same time cared for a character as much.For all of you who are tired of superhero flicks, this will be refreshing watch. Promise.

jessicabamford-92078 Though this film fits the coming of age genre the struggles that Nadine, the main character, is going through are not purely 'teen problems', As a 20 something year old this film deeply resonated with me and though similar to Nadine I was a socially awkward, defensive and pessimistic teenager it wasn't just the teenage me who could find the character relatable. I've noticed in the low rated comments one of the main reasons people didn't like the film is because the main character isn't likeable. And though I loved the film, I would agree; she isn't likeable. And the film is more realistic and better off for it. In real life we aren't always likeable people ourselves and the film almost acts as a tool to allow us to step back and really look at our current or teenage selves. Nadine does realise and understand towards the end and throughout the film her erratic and selfish behaviour is a result of her self loathing because she knows she doesn't want to continue being that way but she's stuck in this endless cycle and doesn't know how to get out. The valuable lesson from the film and her journey within it is that we often bring misfortune and unhappiness on ourselves in the way we handle and respond to bad things in our lives. I think this film will speak to anyone who has felt alone in the world, lost without purpose or anywhere to fit in. If you like films about people rather than action and you watch a film to be taken on a journey (albeit an emotional one) rather than to have an enjoyable couple of hours then this may be the film for you. It helps that is has an excellent cast, each actor fitting their roles well and bringing them to life.Another positive note I took away from the film is the way it handles and represents mental illness/ distress as it does so without labels and in a subtle way without needing to bring it to the forefront.

GET-your-ASS-to-MARS Nobody does high school coming of age movies better than the Americans. Ticks all the boxes, and Woody Harrelson is on form as usual.
