About

If you liked the dark school tension of Extracurricular or the hard-hitting action of Bloodhounds, this is a gripping watch; Not for you if relentless bullying, bleak emotions, and violent confrontations feel too heavy.

Pros: intense pacing; strong friendships; emotionally gripping | Cons: familiar bullying story; hard-to-watch violence; very dark tone
