Not bad, go do yourself a favor & watch the iconic movie of the same name before watching this, since they rip some scenes & quotes right from the classic movie it's better to see the original first than the show paying ode to it. Show gender/race swaps characters & has its own twist on the story & what happens, so it's not the same just a re-telling using same style & name of the movie.

Nothing is sacred anymore is it..what a complete pile of cr*p. Just watch the excellent original film with the talented John Cusack and forget this made for cry baby millennials version.

Zoe's best acting to date is unfortunately in a bland show. Leaning on an amazing soundtrack does not make up for an uncompelling story with flawed characters that end up never addressing their flaws. A recommended watch if you have no other shows to binge.

The best crafted and most thoughtful show I’ve seen in this genre. It’s so unusual to get a character study with such riveting characters that’s still enjoyable. I love the plot, dialogue, characters and music. What more to ask? For anyone that loves music or love. Which means everyone, because if you don’t love either, you might want to think about that...

Fairly disappointed with the show, given the cast. The silver lining is Kravitz, her screen presence is magnetic and has a whole lot of charisma, she makes the whole thing watchable. Maybe with better material this could’ve contended with the film. Unfortunately this is not the case, the show feels like a ripoff most of the time, there’s not a lot of originality going on. It’s more of a mediocre remake of the movie with same roles but different actors. Sad to see the show take this route.

I went into this knowing I was going to like it because of Zoe Kravitz and the description of the show and ended up loving it. Zoe really kills this with a great performance. Ps. If you’re a music fan you’ll especially like it

I've read the book and seen the movie, and love this take. Zoe Kravitz and the amazing cast bring these flawed humans who are getting through their days while trying to get to a better state of being to life in such a vivid way. You really feel the intensity and heartbreak and humor of these characters, who are shown to be kind and loving and broken and sometimes **** who just make mistakes and try to learn. Kinda like actual people, huh? The music choices add a whole different level of experience, brilliant selections without overpowering the performances or manipulating the viewer. Loved every moment!

I'm tired of remakes, I'm tried of under talented people getting lead roles.

A shot for shot, line for line remake of the movie except all the actors are different. There really was no point to making this. It's a flimsy copy of an originally good idea.

Started this show because of Zoe and damn I don't regret it. I didn't expect anything and wow? it's seriously so good. Fell in love with the vibes, the characters and their flaws and got so sad when I finished the show... where is season 2?
