    Adolescence

    ★★

    This suffers from the "Promising Young Woman" effect, where something gets lavished with praise simply for being *about* some important topic despite saying nothing interesting about it and lacking anything that makes a show actually good (except great acting).

    Surface level characters say surface level things (but ~emotionally~) all packaged in a set of technically impressive but aesthetically vapid oners.

  • Walk the Line

    ★★★

    Satisfying as a period piece but quite frustrating otherwise

    A Real Pain

    ★★★½

    Simple but effective and made me laugh plenty.

    I think Kieran Culkin could afford to tone it down ~two notches in general.

    Can't imagine how this could have been executed better, honestly.
