Eighth Grade Reviews

the bitch was weird asf

9/10
As someone who just exited childhood, this movie was too real. So much so that it made me feel a visceral level of cringe. It made those heart warming or sad scenes, hit even harder too. Most “coming of age” movies are out of touch, but this one actually felt like being 13

This movie was uncomfortable, honest, and the thing I loved most about it was the universality it had. It gave a glimpse inside the digital generation and it was such a rare movie that I think speaks to any age. Bo Burnham did an amazing job writing this story.

Good movie, just hate the second hand embarrassment

ate. bo burnham directed this beautifully and perfectly portrayed middle school in 2017. it was heartfelt and funny and contained material of serious topics. 10/10

My favorite movie of all time 🫶 I’ve watched this at least ten times and i still laugh and cry just as hard every time.

11/10

Thanks for watching! Gucci👌

its really accurate to kids in 2017, and some parts were relatable. alot of second hand embarrassment tho, so u gotta prepare yourself for that LOL

My grandpa forced me to watch this in grade 8 😭

Did an excellent job reconnecting me with my middle-schooler self. Had me welling up with the themes of growing up, losing our innocence, struggling with insecurities and self worth, and navigating the world while discovering your identity. Captured the cringe of 13 very well.

yes it’s supposed to be uncomfortable BC BEING THIS AGE IS UNCOMFORTABLE. brought up a lot of repressed memories in me. one of the best portrayals of middle school i’ve seen. some may not relate to this, but as someone who was in a same boat as kayla, this hit home. loved this

horrible bo you did me wrong!

it was gucci

It was okay. I didn’t really like it bcuz it was really cringe, but I liked how realistic it was from my school experiences that I felt like I was back in school again. It was just too uncomfortable to really enjoy it

the second hand embarrassment is REAL

it made me feel uncomfortable

Why is she such a dick to her dad he’s literally so nice

Maybe if I watch it again I’ll change my mind

i wanted to like this so baddddd but i didnt

friend was in this - still didn’t like it
