Vanilla
Competition is stiff, when you have things like "To all the boys," and "Kissing Booth." This just felt so base and vanilla, compared to any other Romantic Comedies. Being simply a queer movie isn't enough. - isaacochoterena - 22 June 2022
Predictable teen rom-com
This movie may be a predictable romantic comedy, but it doesn't fall on bad examples for teenagers of what love is.
This romantic comedy shows that you will not always find love in the person you like, you will find it in who you least expect it, this becomes a good moral for the teenage audience that begins to experience the attraction to another person, the film also develops this falling in love in a correct way and not ridiculous or toxic, which happens in most movies of this type. The plot is very predictable from the second act, but if you like this genre or belong to the target audience it can be an enjoyable movie. The performances are credible, although the character development is not proportional, while some have an extensive development, others have nothing, the love relationship is well developed although the script does it in a very instantaneous way, the climax and the end may seem a bit ridiculous, although for the genre of this film it is normal to be like that.
This film stands out from the others of the same genre, mainly for not falling into the ridiculous or the toxic, just as it stands out for having LBGT characters and relationships as the main point of the story, especially a lesbian relationship, something that had not been seen recently in a teen romantic comedy.
