RAVING REVIEW: <\/strong>A challenging watch because of the story and fantastic cast. While I haven’t read the novel the film was based on; I genuinely was moved by the performances here.<\/p>\n

\n

So I won’t lie; I haven’t seen STRANGER THINGS (part of it) or the FEAR STREET trilogy (I know, I know…). I probably just lost credibility with some. Because of that, I wasn’t super familiar with Sadie Sink, but I have been missing out if this is anything to go off of.<\/p>\n

The film tackled grieving, acceptance, and rebellion all in one. It makes me wish I knew how much of the story was changed for the movie vs. the book. So if you’ve read the book, please let me know below! Sometimes I felt that the film had a hard time balancing the different emotions; at the same time, it was dead on with them. Such an intriguing back-and-forth that I couldn’t quite nail it down.<\/p>\n

The entire cast was fantastic in their given roles, but Sink, Rossi, and Collins were the trifecta that made the film. Their balance and chemistry on screen took a somewhat predictable script and elevated it to an enjoyable movie that had you stressed one moment and rooting for things you wouldn’t expect the next.<\/p>\n

Interestingly enough, Sink has a role in one of the films I’m most cautiously optimistic about to finish off the year. THE WHALE looks like it could end up being a masterfully done film and would help get her name out beyond just the Netflix audiences. <\/p>\n

I love that so much of the film had me questioning what I thought I was seeing but also knowing it wasn't the case. If you’re too uncomfortable with young adult content to admit that you can enjoy watching a film not made for you, this probably isn’t for you.<\/p>\n
