As someone who doesn't know the original (neither book nor movie) this series feels similar to other dark teenage dramas like Euphoria or 13 Reasons Why. Many reviewers criticize the modern pop songs and similar stylistic elements. However, since this topic is timeless I don't feel like it needs to have a 70s mood. Actually, I expected even more of a contemporary adaption. Also often mentioned, and it is surely true, adult cast always feels a bit weird when they are supposed to play young teenagers. However, I don't see a way around that given the topic and the scenes. Personally, I can recommend the show.
