The Kissing Booth

This story has been done time after time. Forced acting. Horrible attempt to match Elle (Joey King) with Noah (Jacob Elordi). There is NO chemistry between these two. Totally unrealistic. Prom scene is almost a rip off of Pretty in Pink. Maybe with a different lead actress this would have been a much better movie. Nothing new here to watch, keep on moving.

I've been seeing this movie around the internet for a while, and a lot of people said that it was great, so I gave it a try. I was expecting it to be a proper rom-com teenage movie, but instead it was a cringey movie which was romanticizing a possible problematic relationship. Noah, who was the love interest of the main character, was very controlling even before they were in a relationship. On the other hand, the main character was just as bossy. There were a lot of cringe-worthy moments in this movie, especially with a lot of lines and with the party scene. The actors were great, though it felt weird that the leading man looked like a 20+ old guy trying to get a 15 year-old girl through cheesy and cliche lines. All in all, this movie had potential, but not enough to become a sensational rom-com movie.

Sexist and victim blaming. Not appropriate in this 'me too' culture.

If you want to experience a fifteen year old girls fantasy, this is it!! :) For that it like it, kind of. The acting is even pretty good, given that the writing is clumsy.

If I had only know that loosing my virginity would make my hair go from wildy unmanageable and frizzy to smooth, sleek, voluminous, and slightly curly at the ends... damn, I would have done it sooner.
