Rob Fee gets an early look at the Bo Burnham film, Eighth Grade.

If this is your first time watching…what have you been doing with your life? It’s been a waste up until this point. What we do here is we take all the new movies, as soon as they come out. We watch them, tell you what we think you’ll enjoy. Not necessarily if it’ll be good or bad, but if

“it will be a nightmare to watch while you’re high,”

Which is something very handy to know! Last week I saw Teen Titans Go! To the Movies, so this week to keep the youthful theme, I watched Eighth Grade, the movie by Bo Burnham the comedian. And it’s so good it’s frustrating. His (Burnham’s) standup is hit or miss for me at times, I think he’s really intelligent, but it’s not always for me, which is fine.

“This movie is so poignant and good you’re annoyed by how good it is.”

What people don’t realize is: being funny isn’t just like, oh man, you’re good at jokes! It’s one of those movies where you’ll watch it and it reflects so much of your own experience. Then what it’s like now and you realize “oh my god,” it’s a different world then when I was this age.

It’s a brilliant, fantastic movie. It’s not a summer blockbuster. It’s not transformers 19…but its good.
