Aww what a lovely film with a lot of mixed emotions, but mostly from the script, a good sense of humour. Brilliant performance from Nadine (Hailee steinfeld) that I think she should go far with and not forgetting the rest of the cast that did just as good. I specially loved Mr Bruner (woody Harrelson) performance with his nasty, sarcastic sense of humour with a twist, and with all the characters he's played in his acting life it suits him.

"The Edge of Seventeen" had all the ingredients to fail and be cliché like so many other "coming of age" movies.

However, while watching it I noticed that it was going to be different. This film portrays so well what many teenagers go through during their academic lives. We feel that the whole world is against us, nobody understands us and that everything that can go wrong, will go wrong. We hate life and everyone around us.

Also while I was seeing, here are some things I noticed with which I related to me:

- lying on the sofa to see Futurama - checked;
- no one understands me - checked;
- hated by all - checked.

"The Edge of Seventeen" surprised me a lot. Hailee Steinfeld and Woody Harrelson were great. And on top is the "directorial debut" Kelly Fremon Craig. However, I feel that this movie was not seen by many people, which is a shame.

"The Edge of Seventeen" is very well acted, directed and specially very well written.

Good film, with decent performances from the entire cast. I related to the story - school was a giant crapfest for many of us - but the film goes beyond simple stereotypes. The well-rounded characters make the film stand out from others of its kind.

Edge of Seventeen is a great funny little coming of age comedy. I really hope this movie gets the attention it deserves when its released on DVD. Hailee Steinfeld is a star in this film.

A must watch for teens.

A powerfull movie with great humor and very realistic..I just loved it dont miss this one!

Teen movies are my guilty pleasure, I really enjoyed this one! 5/7 !

I wasn't sure what to expect, but was beautifully surprised.
the movie sets the tone early with lovely dry self-depreciating humour.
there's a nice connection to the teenage years of trying to connect and find people you relate to.
the main actor Hailee has a lovely style. it is easy to warm to her character but still keep enough distance to reflect on weird decisions she makes.
there is a nice flow between the minor trivialities in her day and significant events that floor the main character or someone close to her.
a fun and emotively reflective movie

Good movie I recommend 7.5

I think I was supposed to want everything to work out for the main character.

One of very few movies about teens that has you sympathizing with them and experience it through their point of view. It kind of reminded me of Lady Bird.

This coming-of-age film could have been great - it's 80% of the way there and lands at just good, relying on some cliche moments and without enough time spent exploring relationships between characters. The middle lags and the end is too fast, but the acting and some of the dialogue is excellent. I enjoyed it once but wouldn't watch it again.
