"Hot Summer Nights" (2018) Review

Image
“Hot Summer Nights”: an ultra-stylish, yet mediocre summer indie flick. Directed by: Elijah Bynum Rated: R Runtime: 2:00 Review by: Livi Edmonson Recent Academy award nominee and arguably young Hollywood’s greatest actor, Timothèe Chalamet leads “Hot Summer Nights” as Daniel: an awkward and lanky teenager who is sent to spend the summer with his Aunt in Cape Cod, Massachusetts after his father passes.

The majority of the movie’s scenes are painfully awkward and cringe-worthy, but hey, eighth grade in general is cringe-worthy and at least this movie doesn’t try to sugarcoat this part...
