I would have stopped with the topic. But because it's required that over 600 words has to be said, here we go
First Brit high school comedies should explore out of the horizon of trying to be like that show" Sex Education" I mean its getting old. All about a boy was a great high school movie..I could see Britain and the uniqueness that the Brits were trying to bring to bare.
Two stop trying to be American. It sucks. There's a difference between American and British schools. It's clear..the terms for being funny in America is quite different in the UK.
I couldn't relate with this movie even when its clear about the story line. It just isn't funny. It was boring and all over the place. The actors weren't even helping matters .. They clearly needed a better cast than this out of place mediocre and annoying to watch casts.

" How to Date Billy Walsh " is a fun movie. It involves witty dialogue, and the classic trope of a love triangle between three teenagers.
However, it was... hard to watch to say the least.
The main character, Archie, is crude and hard to sympathize with. It's hard to believe that he actually cares for Millie with all of the horrible things he does throughout the movie. The only interesting characterization he has is when he speaks to the audience, and that gets old fast.
The titular Billy Walsh is supposed to be an American bad boy that the English girls swoon over. While his accent is lovely, his character is bland and flat. He has no other personality traits, or motives, behind any of his options. His use in the story is just to be a "foil" to Archie, and that is made clear.
Millie, the girl next door, and Archie's best friend, is the worst characterized out of all of them. Her purpose is to just be in love with whoever it calls for in the movie. She's bland, like a manic pixie dream girl but watered down. While she has a motivation, her mother, it fails to bring any substance to her character.
The movie's plot was boring and overdone, but no idea is original. I could excuse the overdone plot for interesting characters, motives, or really anything of interest. However, we're only met with the same predictable plot twists and endings.
This is a fun movie if you put the cringey moments and poor characterization aside. While I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, it's a nice movie if you've already watched all of Netflix's catalogue.

If the Harry Potter franchise and a Nickelodeon pie-in-the-face bathroom joke-filled movie had a child, this would be it. The movie suffers because of unflattering sex jokes and constant breakage of the fourth wall. It may have been a satire, but the script was very disorderly.
I laughed only once, and ironically it was from a character who got seconds worth of screen time (the restaurant waiter). I did enjoy Charithra Chandran's performance, but she couldn't salvage the overall viewing experience.
It felt like every character was stuck in their own fairy tale universe. Plus the film tried the "influencer" type angle, complete with slow motion scenes and text message bubbles. The ending was mildly cute, but it was too little too late.

I really wanted to like this. The movie has a great cast and, to give them their due, the weakness isn't in the cast performance here, they do a great job with the dire material they have to work with.
There's nothing new or original about the story. It's a poor British attempt to replicate an American high school movie trope that has been told a thousand times. I'm unsure how you can remake a movie that has been made so many times before yet get it so wrong.
I get that the design of the film is supposed to be slightly off the wall, but it borders on cartoonesque. If it not for the occasional swear word or discussion of sex toys, this could be an episode of any Nickelodeon or Disney show.
The characters, writing and story is all paper thin.
I'm really unsure who the audience is for this, it's too adult in content for the tween audience, it's too immature for older young adults, it doesn't have the sarcasm or self-awareness to please an older audience.

We have seen this movie 1,000,000 times, and i dont get why hollywood tries so hard to wanna make Tanner Buchanan into a super cool badass character, he clearly is not and it shows they try to hard every time in every movie.
And, dude, she knew the guy for 2 weeks , that made me roll my eyes in the secreat revealing part in the intercom.
Is not bad, its just a good sunday movie to put in the back while you scroll your phone and fold laundry.
Acting is nit bad, i laughed at the "you have an amazing bone structure line"
I also like how billy left her in thebdate and did not take her crap lol.
