Thirteen-year-old Kayla endures the tidal wave of contemporary suburban adolescence as she makes her way through the last week of middle school--the end of her thus far disastrous eighth grade year before she begins high school.

Director: Bo Burnham

Cast: Elsie Fisher, Josh Hamilton, Emily Robinson, Jake Ryan, Missy Yager, and Daniel Zolghadri

What the critics are saying:

"Eighth Grade takes a look at its titular time period that offers a rare and resounding ring of truth while heralding breakthroughs for writer-director Bo Burnham and captivating star Elsie Fisher." - Certified Fresh Rotton Tomatoes

"An achingly honest film about some of the ghastliest years of adolescence. Funny, tender and endearing." - Rafer Guzman, Newsday

"Great in so many freaking ways..." - Bob Grimm

Why Parents Should Ignore Eighth Grade's R Rating:

Stand-up comedian Bo Burnham’s feature directorial debut has picked up rave reviews since it premiered at Sundance, but the MPAA has slapped an R rating on it, making it more difficult for younger viewers to see it. But, as Christy Lemire argues, this is exactly the kind of movie those teens and tweens should see, as she breaks down what earned the movie its rating and what you can expect going into it.
