Really loved this concept. Really relevant to today. Being in love with your best friend. Yeah we have all experienced that haha. Great acting from Victoria. Director did an amazing job. Really loved this. Worth my money. Loved the comedy and romance and raw feeling you get when watching the movie. Great movie for teenagers and adults to watch. We have all (well most of us) had a best friend like Naomi and Ely had. All in all this is a really good coming of age story and LGBT movie. Great to watch with your friends. Not sure if you would watch with your family do to the make up scenes but to each there own I suppose. Definitely worth checking out if your into movies like this.
This was enjoyable enough as indie rom-coms go, even though I didn't get (missed?) what motivated Naomi's coming out of denial at the end of Act Two... My biggest Hunh? came when I checked the release date at the end of the movie... I know she was only 18, but as a young woman living in New York in 2015, I found it incredible that she wasn't gay-savvy enough not to have fallen in love with Ely, or at least acknowledge that it could never work out... That kind of naive self-delusion was more fitting for a girl in the more innocent 1970's (I'm thinking of my younger sister, who had a gay BF she developed a crush on) - it's hard to believe that could still happen almost 50 years later in our current culture... In any case, should be popular with teenage girls.
Victoria Justice and Pierson Fode are perfect together in this movie and their chemistry is undeniable! Not having read the book previously I don't know how well it was portrayed but the movie is great on its own. This is a great and very different type of love story, from friendship (specifically best friendship) to romance and all of the challenges that come with it, to somewhere in between. It is relatable enough but also a different enough perspective that anyone can enjoy it! Naomi and Ely have to grow up and it's the coming to terms with that, the obstacle of a possible love interest and the testing of their bond that propels the story forward. Great movie that I can not wait to watch it again! I also really want to read the book now!
The character of Naomi is so self centered. Clingy, whiny, attention craving. When bad things happen to her, you want to pause it, invite the neighbours in, dance around the TV letting off party poppers, shouting "Whoop whoop" She's an awful character, wouldn't be out of place in'Gossip Girl' Horrible character. I stuck with it because Ely and Alex are hot. Okay, apart from that, I associated with Ely's perspective. You can't help where the heart leads you. Annoying and, 'what's that about' having two sets of characters with the same name, even a boy and girl. I would have enjoyed it more if it hadn't been for enduring Naomi.
I loved the movie. It was funny and also soothing for a nice relaxing afternoon. I think that this is a great story about friendship and love, also about growing old and changing. Not all change is bad and the movie handles very well the idea that not all relationships are perfect, not even between best friends.
The cast is great, relatable and have great chemistry, therefore the characters feel real and not forced into the plot. Bruce 1 per example is a magnificent secondary character who brings a lot of comedic elements and also funny scenes.
Above all, you can get lost in the movie and be happy for a bit over an hour, forget about your problems and have fun.
