[7.00/10] The Edge of Seventeen (2016)

The Edge of Seventeen (2016)

Quick Review: With a sharp script that avoids most teen cliches, witty dialogues, and spot-on humor, "The Edge of Seventeen" is definitely not your by-the-numbers coming-of-age story, being equally wise and utterly hilarious without losing its cool edge for a second, and getting everything right. Hailee Steinfeld is a true force of nature, giving a fresh, and feisty lead performance as the fascinating Nadine, complemented brilliantly by the fine supporting cast.

It's hard to find a good teen comedy these days. Maybe I'm just partial to all those that came out in the 80's.

Alex, same here. The 90s had some good ones as well.
