Critics are loving Netflix’s Adolescence in their reviews
The four-part Netflix series titled “Adolescence” has received acclaim from critics since its latest release. They’ve been commending the show for its emotionally charged and tearjerking narrative. Directed by Barantini, the story follows a family’s tumultuous journey as their life is upended when 13-year-old Jamie, portrayed by Owen Cooper, stands accused of murdering one of his schoolmates.
In simple terms, Randy Myers from The Mercury News praised Stephen Graham for his dual role as creator and actor in the show. He expressed that Graham is not only potent on-screen but also plays an influential role off-camera.
According to Alan Sepinwall from Rolling Stone, Adolescence is not a light or effortless viewing experience, but its powerful message and bold delivery make it one of the absolute finest programs to watch this year – possibly even the best – on television.
In his critique for FandomWire, M. N. Miller highlighted that the show possesses an exceptional strength and unique perception. He went on to praise Stephen Graham’s acting in the review, stating that “Adolescence is skillfully grounded by Stephen Graham’s impactful portrayal of vulnerability. It carries a powerful punch, comparable to a wrecking ball, leaving viewers feeling deeply affected.
