Adolescence

An absolutely incredible show. The acting is legit some of the best I’ve seen in a while. Especially the acting from the main kid, truly incredible. This kid has a bright future. As for the show itself, absolutely devastating. Definitely some problems to it, but the overall package is great. I wish it was longer, and I felt the one shot gimmick really didn’t work at some parts. This only being 4 episodes is absolutely crazy. You definitely need more time with the characters and the situation. If these issues were changed, we’d have a masterpiece. Besides my flaws, this show is just so good. Such an important topic. Toxic masculinity in today’s age is so sad. As a teen boy, I know people that act like Jamie in my daily life. That are misogynistic, that abuse women, that are sexist, that are controlling. This is the sad reality of our world today. People like Andrew Tate and Donald Trump completely corrupt young boys and help mold them into sexist pieces of shit. I really hope society helps combat this issue, but I doubt so. The last 30 minutes of the show absolutely are incredible. As well as the entirety of episode 3. Absolutely Stunning.
