So the movie starts out in a way that you don't really know where it's going. But that's because of the good acting. Pete did such a good job his character was kinda scary, because he didn't give anything away by Over or under acting.
He played his character perfect. and the rest of the cast did the same. The acting in this movie supported the writing so well, I could take in each scene one at a time.
It was nice to see Jon break out of his normal role right before my eyes. Each and every actor did such a good job.
I want to see more!

Does this movie do anything special? No. Does this movie do anything never done before? No. I love it though. This is a truly depressing coming of age story. It depicts the reality of how bad the mistakes you make as a kid can actually end up being. Griffin Gluck and Pete Davidson give heartfelt and heartbreaking performances. This movie is a darker Superbad and a better Mid90s. This movie really shows why I love Pete Davidson. This movie does things that have been done before, but does it in a way that personally resonates with me more than most other coming of age movies.
The conversations and the way Pete Davidson acts is so authentic (I think attributed to his micro-dosing of mushrooms) from body movements to line delivery, he was spot on. You watched a star that has the possibility to go anywhere now that we seen how much he was made for the big screen, in his first starring role ever. I predict he will go far and really hope he does, love his stand up, loved him on SNL (even though show has went downhill and hard to watch sometimes), his way of thinking about loving life, and now I love his acting on the big screen. I can't wait to see what his next performance will be or what type of roles he can play, really excited, as he should be, for his career right now!!
The story didn't really end anywhere and I wanted more comedy. Newb director and writer Jason Orley was impressive this being his first full length film. What humor there was, was great, as was Pete Davidson who needs to do more TV/movies. He was jokes in The Rookie.
Not much to say other than this a heartfelt and very funny movie. Fans of Pete Davidson will definitely love it, as well as fans of high school coming of age movies.
