Reviews

noahstewart-21790 Hey, guys. This evening, I watched "The Edge of Seventeen" with Hailee Steinfeld, and it was pretty good. A true story about a 17 year old high girl as a school junior who feels more alone than ever in her life. This movie is passionately. Hailee Steinfeld did a good fabulous job as Nadine. Her performance is really inspired with some energy to it. For example, Nadine felt aghast when this guy Nick tried to kiss her, but her couldn't let him to touch her "You-Know-What", gets out of his car and cries her tears. Like me, I felt more aghast than Nadine. I know there are some depressing scenes like I was talking about. But I think it is the truly real-life and coming-of-age story. I will give a recommendation to "The Edge of Seventeen". I did enjoyed it and I praysed it a lot. It's seems dramatic, but very enjoyable.

priceturner A highly underrated gem. The Edge Of Seventeen features a beautiful performance from Hailee Steinfeld, that captures the teenage spirit in a funny, dramitic, and poignant way. With some stellar writing and beautiful debut Direction from Kelly Fremon Craig. I highly recommend this film to anyone willing to laugh, cry, and reminisce.

hawk_moondance I didn't find anything funny about this. She's depressed, she's completely selfish and self-centered and she was all of these things from the beginning. There's no great epiphany or life altering event that suddenly makes her a better person. She gets told off once and flips the switch suddenly. Unbelievable. There is nothing about this girl that is relatable. Geez, The bad boy has more sense than she does. I don't see why it has good reviews.

Michael O'Keefe Kudos to Kelly Fremon Craig for her writing and direction of this coming-of-age drama that features well placed moments of humor. Nadine (Hailee Steinfeld) is a 17-year-old that feels very awkward and is still grieving the death of her father after four years. Her closest friend is Krista (Haley Lu Richardson) in this edgy dynamic of high school society. Things become a bit more twisted when Nadine finds out that Krista is secretly dating Nadine's detested older brother, Darian (Blake Jenner). It is not like Nadine has exactly lost her only friend. When she suffers her day-to-day tragic problems, she rushes to the classroom of Mr. Bruner (Woody Harrelson) and unloads on him as he casually tries to eat his lunch; Nadine is berating him and insulting him with little mercy as this is the way she calms herself down. Miss Steinfeld is absolutely tremendous in this role. Playing her role so seamlessly; so fresh and even genuine. And you get no idea Steinfeld is actually 19 years old playing a girl two years younger. For Harrelson, no one could play his part any better. His devotion to a troubled student, all the while he himself has life problems of his own.Rounding out the cast: Alexander Calvert, Nesta Cooper, Hayden Szeto and Kyra Sedgwick.
