I actually really enjoyed this movie, Pete Davidson was constantly funny through out, you end up kind of feeling bad for his character even though he's a "bad guy". Also, depicts what drugs & alcohol do to your life, even if you're not using them, you will become a loser if you associate yourself with losers.

This was a great and fun movie. I had the pleasure of working as an extra on the film and you can see me blurred out in the background in one of the school scenes. Pretty cool stuff. Anyway, to objectively review the film, I thought it was very pleasant and well-done. It’s an indie coming-of-age/unconventional buddy movie where a 16-year old boy idolizes his sister’s ex-boyfriend, as an older brother and best friend. But, he’s a burnout and loser, living a life of partying, drugs, and alcohol. I can predict a lot of what would happen, but my expectations aren’t completely high either. It’s a fun independent film that showcases Davidson’s excellent acting skills and typecast as the likeable scumbag. It also features Thomas Barbusca (of *Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp*), Jon Cryer, and Sydney Sweeney (of *Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood*). There’s some good laughs, nice cinematography, and an enjoyable experience.

this movie is so funny but also does an amazing job of not glorifying zeke and Monroes behavior and choices. It shows the consequences and negatives of doing drugs. It's my comfort movie also Pete Davidson I love you.

Griffin Gluck plays a teen who idolizes a dropout druggie (Pete Davidson). They hang together and have a good time, which eventually leads to more serious complications. This is Davidson's movie. Even as his character becomes more toxic, his loser charm is endearingly sweet and even a bit touching. Gluck is also commendable, as he struggles with being cool, while going against his own better judgment. This is ultimately a bromance with liberal accents of humor, but it's Davidson who makes the movie worth watching.

There is something highly annoying about this movie. I'm not sure if it's the protagonist and his mirror character, the real world actor, making this out to be some kind of delusional 'rock-star' auto-biography or it's the complete cringe of the stereotypical plot. Either way, save yourself from this waste of a film.

A paradox of the popular complaints regarding modern movies, Big Time Adolescence could have transformed into a classic if it was only given more time. It was clear the creator had a story to tell, while nailing the aesthetic and soundtrack. However, saying that the ending was fumbled would be incorrect, as there was almost no semblance of an ending at all.

This movie is an absolute must see. Especially for teenagers with its realistic viewing of “adolescence” I need a sequel to this amazing movie. Ten minutes in it became my new favourite movie immediately.

A well-done movie based around subtle character development. The chemistry between characters strongly contributes to the easy-going atmosphere.
