Review by Caitlin ★★★ 5

this performance would be remarkable if he hadn't already invented the very notion of acting, let alone singing and dancing, in the critically acclaimed musical-sci-fi-drama-romance Teen Beach Movie (2013)

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

my friend told me this movie was boring because it doesn’t include any sort of murderous content. quite the opposite, this film remains a calm, scenic rendition of dahmer’s teen years. it illustrates the growth and development of his dark mind, and Ross Lynch portrays him eerily well. Alex Wolff also was amazing in his supporting role. above all, i think this film is worth the watch.

I gained absolutely nothing from watching this movie, but Alex Wolff is always a pleasure to look at!
