What we said: “Chbosky nails the textures of teenage gloom; but he needs to be more ruthless about editing a novel into a 103-minute movie. The characters – an abusive boyfriend with a ponytail, a kindly English teacher, a rich shoplifter – should have been developed more or dropped altogether. Worst of all, a crucial plot point arrives in a last- minute burst.”
Extras: Audio commentaries, featurette, deleted scenes, trailer.
