Various coming of age themes were explored (love, loss, virginity, sex positivity, friendship, growth, overcoming fears, fights with parents & friends, unforgettable summers, etc) with just a little more bluntness and vulgarity than you might be used to... particularly coming from a female protagonist (this was a good thing... trust me).
The entire cast was awesome... they had great chemistry and there were several scenes that you could tell they had a lot of fun filming together. This was a great coming of age film that I enjoyed much more than I could've possibly imagined. Great job to writer/director Becca Gleason... she nailed this one!
BTW. I read some comments claiming that the movie content is anti-semitic. No way it is (see the producers)!!! Quite the opposite indeed. Catholics (grandma & most characters) here are seen as hypocrite, dumb or just followers of an empty rite. The final scene (Jamie speech at the church) is one of the most offensive thing I could ever had imagined. Acceptable as viewer because movie need to be free but over the lines. The same the depiction of the young priest, depicted as someone searching a stable job occupation (really? In 2018, being a priest in a post-religious world is something not really "safe"). Last but not least the german character (the "real" grandpa of Jamie) is just a joke, not even a stereotype because to be a stereotype you need a truth behind
This is a relatively standard coming of age dysfunctional family comedies about a hormone filled teen. This one is about a girl which comes with its own issues. I struggle with Jamie's likeability. She's struggling to know right from wrong and sex and all the big questions. Joey King is a hot girl looking for sex. It's never quite as funny as a geeky guy desperately trying to lose his virginity. Guys look stupid and the audience laugh at them. It's tougher to make girls struggle to have sex. The best that can be achieved is the girls having bad sex and Jamie isn't even doing that. There are still laughs to be had in this movie but whoever this Becca Gleason is, she has to figure out how to get more humor out of her comedies.

- BlooperTowards the middle of the film, when Jamie and Emily are sitting on the hood of the car eating ice cream, the amount of ice cream on Emily's cone fluctuates with each camera angle, even at one point in three consecutive shots, going from almost full, to almost gone, back to almost full again.
- Citazioni
[First lines]
Jamie Winkle: [narrating] Isn't it funny how you can never remember much about summer? It's kinda just like, I don't know, a generic string of happy memories. Like that feeling when you leave on the last day of school and when your hands get sticky from ice-cream melting off the cone. Swimming with friends, sometimes with boys if you're lucky. Sleeping till 2. Borrowing the car. When nothing significant ever happens, it's very easy for the days to melt together... passing slowly like a lazy river.
[a small conversation with Shira]
Jamie Winkle: This was the summer I fucked up.
