Adolescence is a Netflix show that dives deep into the mind of a young criminal. It tells the story of Jamie Miller, a 14-year-old boy who is arrested for killing his classmate, Katie. But this series isn’t just about what happened, it’s about why it happened.
With only four intense episodes, Adolescence shows how toxic online culture, bullying, and loneliness can push teens toward violence. Each episode is filmed in a one-take style, making viewers feel like they are right there with the characters.
Jamie’s father, Eddie (played by Stephen Graham), is at the center of the emotional storm, trying to understand if his son could really do such a thing. As the police dig deeper, Eddie’s belief in his son starts to break, and we see the pain of a father who may have missed the warning signs.
One of the most powerful moments happens during a long therapy session between Jamie and a psychologist, Briony (Erin Doherty). In this scene, Jamie begins to admit the anger and frustration he felt before the crime. It shows how being ignored, bullied, and influenced by toxic online groups can damage a teen’s view of the world.
The show also highlights male rage and toxic masculinity, asking tough questions: How do boys learn about respect? How much do social media and online hate shape their minds?
The acting is top-notch. Owen Cooper’s role as Jamie is chilling and real. Stephen Graham shows deep pain and regret as Eddie, while Erin Doherty’s performance is calm yet powerful.
Adolescence is a bold, honest look at teenage struggles today. It’s emotional, disturbing, and very real.
