13 Reasons Why Audience Reviews

More Review
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
henryshear 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.
Mr_Masterjones First of all and before review the series I must say that this show has a very important and well receive message about pressure and struggles students have in their high school, this is not something that should take lightly and I dont think any series or movies matter of fact showed something bold and blunt like this before.At the beginning We very well introduce to the series, characters and storyline and slowly begun to feel the pain and knowing mysteries and twists of the story. Everything is just in place, story isnt too slow to bore u or too fast to be cursory. Dialougs, drama and twists are good, acting, directing, plots and chemistry between characters are at very best. We dont have any totally evil or dumb characters that we usually see in this type of stories and thats a relife, just stuped immature teenagers doing things without thinking of consequences.Series in season 1 gets better episode by episode and thats mostly because of the good writing and directing besides the great job of its actor. We slowly get going with the story and with each tape get more attached and sympathetic. We learn how little things can effect your life in big ways and change it forever. Series has very important messages and topics besides the obvious, Its talking about love, loss, family, love, friendship, loneliness and so many more meaningful things, isnt just focus on bullying at school. Everything about this show was good from beginning to the end until they decide to continue the series in further seasons. They could have a very beautiful and inspiring ending scene in season 1 and wrapping the story up with a beautiful sad goodbye between main characters and end the story and series at its best but instead decided to continue the story which it was a huge mistake. Me personally before watching season 2, had hoped somehow with amazing stuff I saw in the first seson next season would be great too but that was false hope. One of the thing I loved most from season 1 was the dark and realistic theme of it which in season 2 almost faded. Not that this season was bad and unwatchable or not dark enough but could have been so much better. The first three episode was no good, little bit shallow and far away from the theme, mood and frame of the first season but in the middle gets back on track but then lost it in the finall episode and all that in 15 minutes. And again they should have ended series in this season or season one but instead decided to continue the story in one more season and without Hanna which thats just ridiculous because hole story is about her. One other thing that I didnt like about this season was what they did to hannas character that definitely reduced her popularity.At the end, personally rathered series had ended in one or at least two seasons with an artistic intense and sad goodbye scene but I guess You cant get always what you want. This was a worth watching tv series even I doubt it watching season 3. Series has alot of good and important topics to discuss but it has its flaws and ups and downs but still definitely is a great and watchable series, I just wish they lead it in a different direction. and one last thing I just love Katherine Langford and Dylan Minnette, very promising actors and definitely hear more from them in future.
lianpilaar 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.
Big Bouy Bokins Seriously people need to stop. All these reviews telling everyone how bad this show is, and how it's unrealist. It's a tv show for goodness sake, what did you think it was going to be? Beyond that, did you know it was a book first? I don't understand this narrative that Hannah isn't likable or relatable. Obviously there was so much she missed, but don't we all? Don't we all miss the little things, the things that make us see the situation from the other side? I think people forget hindsight is 20/20. Looking back, sure she could have done a lot different, seen that people cared and she ran them off. When your living in it, you miss it all. Ok so I got that out of the way. This show while is very dangerous for people with doubts to watch, it does make you think. I could relate to Clay. He was a believable shy guy that never knew what to say to Hannah. I was that same kid. They did a good job of making you believe that. One of my favorite scenes was at the dance. He was pushed to finally ask her to dance, and they just went crazy for a few minutes. It was great! It makes you feel actual joy for them. Only if it's for a second. I say all of this to say that season 2 missed. I think the writers completely changed the story, and missed. The Hannah Baker they made for season 2 wasn't the Hannah Baker from season 1. Since the book never went beyond season 1, the writers decided to make their own story. They missed in an effort to make drama and I think it was a terrible decision. They kind of brought it back together at the end, but just added a bit too much. Hopefully season 3 will redeem it, but I doubt it. Season 1 was all that was needed.
