Teen Burg ✔ | Pro |

Streaming on Hulu starting May 12.

Mills excels at atmosphere. The Burg is a sensory wasteland: flickering neon signs, grease-stained aprons, the omnipresent smell of stale fries. The first act hums with authenticity—lazy shifts, dead-end conversations, and the quiet terror of realizing adulthood is a trap. Reyes carries the emotional weight, her dead-eyed monologue about calculating hourly wages against escape plans being the film’s single best scene. teen burg
