The movie is good but compared to the book, it is not as good. I also noticed that there are no people of color in the entire movie! None! I even checked background characters and I only saw white people, which is very concerning. The lines and banter between Sam and Patrick was also a lot more cringy than in the book. I think that the book and movie do discuss important topics that should be talked about more which can be helpful but if you can, read the book. It talks about drugs, sexual assault, depression, anxiety etc. The music choice is also pretty good. But I would suggest reading the book first.
