As someone who grew up during the "grunge era," this film was a walk down memory lane for me. It perfectly captures how it felt to be a suburban teenager living in 90s, and yet it does way more than wax nostalgic. It's like "Dazed and Confused" for a new generation, but with a darker tone that is more appropriate for the time period. It also doesn't hold back in its honest depiction of mental illness, which means it's an emotional gut-punch at times. But, that's what makes it so good. Plus, the soundtrack is awesome!
