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!!
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.
Good watch, would watch again, and can recommend.
This is a surprisingly touching "coming of age" story. I'm not a big fan of Pete Davidson, but he does what he does well enough.
I could imagine many people relating to this in several different ways, and what's more is that it feels timeless. Yes, they have cellphones in this, but I could imagine a greaser version of this where he comes by instead of calling, as opposed to calling instead of texting.
The presentation is subtle and near perfect, everyone plays there roles very well.
Its subtle again, but the writing is well nuanced. It really captures the essence of someone who got a broad future, but gets tunnel vision based on his "childish" wants.
There is a lot of depth here if that's what you're looking for, but the minimal version of this is still a good movie.

Pete Davidson is so cool in this and Griffin Cluck is pretty solid! I love most movies about young folks for some reason always have, this one is kinda like a big brother except best friend buddy comedy. I really enjoy Pete he's great all around! Big Time Adolescence is mostly about hanging out, partying and relationships which isn't for everyone but it's an awesome movie. Not much needs to be said of this, I'm surprised this has a 6.9 better than you'd think for a party type. It has a lot of heart and is well filmed that's a big bonus. The main dad in this sounds almost like Pete which is kinda weird, anyway would recommend to some great all around.
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.
