Review of The Edge of Seventeen (2016) by Madmaxfuryroad — 04 Mar 2017
The Edge of Seventeen is by far the best movie of 2017. Hailee Steinfeld, Woody Harrelson, Haley Lu Richardson, Hayden Szeto, Blake Jenner, and everyone else in the movie had near-perfect acting. In fact, everyone acted so well that I felt like I was in every scene of the movie, myself.
The relationship between Nadine and Krista from little to grown up was so touching; in fact, it is my favorite friend group in a movie. The movie was so relatable to my daily life and all the relationships were beyond incredible.
The movie was funny, dramatic, and touching all at the same time, without being over length. Erwin and Nadine's relationship was cute and all the main characters were likable. Hailee Steinfeld's acting was incredible and she gave the best performance of her acting career.
I think this movie should've gotten at least a nomination for best acting and best picture. Woody Harrelson played the role of a likable teacher, which I thought was amazing. The movie, itself, without all the likable characters probably wouldn't deserve such a high rating.
The Edge of Seventeen did seem a bit unrealistic at times, but it was entertaining and it touched my heart. I have been thinking about this movie for days as it was so touching. Other than that, I thought the Edge of Seventeen was a beautiful film that should start a new genre of filmmaking - one that touches the daily lives of teens.
The Edge of Seventeen is a perfect film to watch on date night, as well as at a party.
