Review of Eighth Grade (2018) by Peter Debruge for Variety — 28 Mar 2018
Eighth Grade shines as, like, a totally spot-on, you know, portrait of Millennial angst and stuff. That may be how Kayla (and all her peers) talk...but Burnham shows a sociolinguist’s ear for the cadence and flow of 21st-century girl-speak, and Fisher.
..delivers his dialogue so naturally, you’d swear she’s making it up as she goes along.
