This is a movie that refuses to shy away from some fairly dark realities yet at the same time doesn't dwell on them in ways that feel exploitive or supercilious.

Burnham... ends up making a movie about internet immersion that ratifies the importance of human contact.
July 20, 2018
As much as Burnham can be applauded, it's impossible not to clap even harder for the pitch-perfect acting of newcomer Elsie Fisher, a marvel in the lead role of an apparently unremarkable 13-year-old.

There's plenty of discourse on how The Youth spend too much time with screens, but Eighth Grade is more interested in understanding Kayla's story on her terms than judging it on someone else's.

Eighth Grade is a revelation of both a remarkably natural young performer and a clever, sensitive young filmmaker.

Adorably cringe-worthy

An achingly honest film about some of the ghastliest years of adolescence. Funny, tender and endearing.

Insightful without being mean and revealing without taking itself too seriously.

Burnham is clearly conflicted about the emotional effects of the constant comparisons, competitions and invidious voyeurism young people are subjecting themselves to nearly all day long. And he gets the subjective experience right.

[Bo Burnham] captures the slings and arrows of adolescence, the high drama felt by not-quite-adults who still think everything is a matter of life and death, with an astonishing amount of empathy.
July 24, 2018
Eighth Grade is a harrowing portrait of anxiety and acceptance in a post-social-media landscape, showing how all of us cope with an ever-changing, constantly refreshing world.
July 19, 2018
Here's a comedy about the trials, tribulations and compulsive worries of youth told with empathy that does credit to first-time writer/director Bo Burnham.
