A few scenes with compelling actors for sure but overall this series goes nowhere. It feels like an excellent start to a movie that never actually goes anywhere. Some miniseries are made to be more interesting because of the questions they leave unanswered, this one has lots of unanswered questions left behind but it feels more like lazy storytelling than being intentionally ominous. The main character Jamie is completely different from episode to episode. This would read as intentional if they went somewhere with it but they didn’t at all and then the series just ends. It’s a bad attempt at trying to show the intricacies of adolescence

They better give this a second season I stg. I’m a queer teacher and I can attest to the fact that a lot of this though satirized and made to be comical for television is very aligned with the experiences I have had. The writing on here is brilliant

*contains light spoilers* - - - This isn’t one of those Netflix movies where u can stare at ur phone, watch passively and still follow along with the plot. If ur not paying attention you’ll be completely lost. Anyone saying this movie is predictable probably didn’t watch to the end. The concept is intriguing but there are moments where the execution could have made things easier to follow. Also some characters seemed underdeveloped and I guess that was bc they end up being killed off anyways but I think that added to the predictability ppl might be referring to bc they are definitely treated like obviously expendable characters from the very start. I think some moments are tacky but if you look at how they shot things and the filters/effects they use I think it’s intentionally campy. That’s part of the style they were going for and I think it’s an interesting choice. I would never call this the movie of the year but I thought it was worth a watch and I stayed interested the whole time. Watching feels almost like a game in itself

People wouldn't be so harsh if this wasn't a marvel movie. It’s not awful. I really think people are overreacting saying it’s the worst movie they've ever seen lol. This felt more like a Disney film tho. Like sky high. If you liked sky high you'd like this (not at all saying its better lbs). It’s kinda kiddie but i don't see that as an issue. If you're expecting a traditional very high quality marvel movie you'll be disappointed. Tons of plotholes and the casting decisions questionable but theyre all very good actors. Think of it like a disney instead of a marvel movie and i think it’s excellent. I see how the reviews ended up the way they did tho if theyre expecting a traditional marvel movie

Great actors. Terrible writing
