    Entertaining & Lots of laughs

    It's one of those adolescent pop culture films with terrific references to prior films with certain plots that they are discussing at that moment. We laughed a lot & had to rewind to rehear the punchline bc we all laughed too hard. It's cheesy with many predictable moments but worth the watch if you are fans of similar themed films.

    Short intriguing with a very poor ending

    I'd rather watch friends with benefits over and over again..hated the ending waited a while to get a good 2022 movie and the first one I get to watch is a rewritten plot that's trash that's just messed up.

    Worth a watch

    I'm a sucker for a rom com. This 1 is a bit cheesy but in good ways. Follows the templets of so many others but this is a lil unique. Female lead is really pretty and pulls off the pretty brainy girl.

    Nothing new here...

    ...and sometimes, the things that were, they were cringeworthy, like holding an iPhone like a boom box, ala John Cusack. There were good performances, in particular from the lead actress, but they weren't enough to distinguish this from any other high school love movie.

    Perhaps this will be more intriguing to the movie's core audience, who probably haven't seen Say Anything... or the dozens of movies cut from the same cloth.

    Unrealistic and cringeworthy

    Maybe I had my expectation too much something like Sex Education by Netflix but then the story telling was not compelling enough and the characters seem unrealistic and rushed. I don't feel in any of a way "connected" to the movie thus I don't enjoy much. It feels like a parody.
