We Bet You Missed Out on Some of the Most Underrated Movies of the 2010s

Teen dramedies are a staple of midtier movies, but The Edge of Seventeen deserved to break out more than it did. The prickly mentorship between Hailee Steinfeld's Nadine and her favorite teacher (played by Woody Harrelson) gives the movie its off-kilter spine, and the overall approach to teenage-hood is refreshing on the whole. It's neither oversimplified for the sake of teaching a lesson nor overly edgy for the sake of being shocking — instead, it captures the emotional nuance and dark humor of being a teenager, more in the vein of a (less offensive, more modern) John Hughes movie.
