Eighth Grade got me thinking about how the teenagers live nowadays. I was nothing like showed in this movie, I was not that much on social media, I had friends, but I was only with them regarding school. Not so much otherwise. This is a good teen movie that shows the teen culture today.
I tried to name as many high school movies as I could remember when I watched this movie. I haven't seen that many high school movies, not even them on the list, but those I could remember was: Grease, The Perks Of Being A Wallflower, Mean Girls, Superbad, Booksmart, 21 Jump Street (half high school movie), American Pie, Not Another Teen Movie, and there's even one more movie Eight Grade is associated with: The Edge Of Seventeen. Except for the plot, both movies look alike. They're both teen dramedies about a teenager who's struggling with a hard life. Some of the scenes looks very much alike, but I won't spoil them.
Usually, I want to talk about the cast in the movie, but this movie contains almost no actors I had heard of before. This movie is still good. If I had wanted to make a teen movie, it would be something like this. The difference is that I would have changed some of the scenes, or add some new scenes to the movie. I love the beginning of the movie, but when the movie is over, I sat there expecting something else to happen. But teen movies doesn't actually have an end. They just end when it suits them to end.
This is still a good movie. It's not one of the best teen movies I've seen, and it could have been better in several ways. But after all, this is worth a watch.
