We are okay with this<\/p>\n

\u2018IT\u2019 stars Sophia Lillis and Wyatt Oleff reunite on-screen in \u2018I Am Not Okay With This\u2019. The series follows Sydney (Lillis), a teenage girl whose life is pretty messed up right now. Her father has died and tensions at home with mom Maggie (Kathleen Rose Perkins) couldn\u2019t be worse, though at least she has her younger brother Liam (Aidan Wojtak-Hissong) to keep her sane and next door neighbour Stanley Barber (Oleff) to keep her amused.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Her best friend Dina (Sofia Bryant) usually has her back, but she’s distracted lately by jock boyfriend Bradley Lewis (Richard Ellis). And just when she thought things couldn\u2019t be more effed up, Sydney discovers she has superpowers that emerge when she feels extreme emotions. And lest we forget, this is a teenage girl we\u2019re dealing with.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2018I Am Not Okay With This\u2019 comes from the director of \u2018The End of the F***ing World\u2019 and producers of \u2018Stranger Things\u2019. The new\u00a0Netflix\u00a0series borrows from the former and Stephen King\u2019s \u2018Carrie\u2019; though it hesitates to go as dark as the latter (until the last episode, which is set at a prom, of course) or funny as \u2018The End\u2026\u2019 Then again, you do have that opening image of Sydney drenched in blood returned to over and over. So that\u2019s some grisly stuff.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The \u2018IT\u2019 kids have grown up and their acting abilities have matured too. Plus it\u2019s interesting to see more potty-mouthed and bad-tempered adolescents headline a series than Netflix offerings \u2018Stranger Things\u2019 and Noah Centineo rom coms (\u2018To All the Boys I\u2019ve Loved Before\u2019, \u2018The Perfect Date\u2019, \u2018Sierra Burgess Is a Loser\u2019, etc\u2026). Though she maintains a sharp, cool, smart-aleck exterior, Sydney is enraged at the cards she’s been dealt with. Lillis turns in an excellent, thoughtful lead performance as Sydney. She keeps you invested when the show goes off the rails. Oleff is great too as the adorkable sidekick while Ellis is perfectly loathsome as jerk jock Brad.<\/p>\n

One can\u2019t help but compare \u2018I Am Not Okay\u2026\u2019 to other YA Netflix content. And there is, at times, a lack of charm in the characters as well as lack of inspiration or originality in the storyline. Mind you, one very smart decision the producers made was having the series be so short. With only seven episodes lasting about 25 minutes each, you\u2019ll fly through the series. When the beats don\u2019t quite hit as they should, you forgive \u2018I Am Not Okay\u2026\u2019 for the sake of seeing how it ends. The finale is, of course, a cliffhanger and you wonder what direction it will go in next. You also wonder how much you really care. It all hangs, really, on whether audiences receive Sydney as an icon or just another angsty teenage protagonist.<\/p>\n

‘I Am Not Okay With This’ arrives on Netflix on Wednesday, 26 February.<\/p>\n
