charlotteclaireperin This isn't a romcom. This isn't the type of movie I want to grow up with anymore. Where are the 2010s versions of "10 things I hate about you", and "Clueless". Is it this hard to opt for quality instead of quantity? Netflix has been becoming a disapointment with their movies and sadly these movies are what preteens and teenagers are watching. I don't want to say that the past was better because every generation says so, but make good movies! The kissing booth should have stayed where it was, on the internet, as a fanfiction, just like all the other fanfictions out there. The cast can't act, aren't likeable at all, and have no chemistry. I watched this movie while cringing, and mocking it. This was bad.
SnoopyStyle In L.A., Elle Evans (Joey King) and Lee Flynn (Joel Courtney) have been best dancing friends since the day they were born at the same time to two best friends. Elle discovers that she has developed a crush on Lee's older hunky brother Noel (Jacob Elordi). The main problem is that Elle and Lee have set up these rules and dating the other's family is definitely one of them.I hope for nothing but good things for these adorable actors. This may not be one of those good things although it's not irredeemable. King is an adorable child actress trying to grow up on screen. Elordi is in full hunk mode. Courtney has limited character work in his role. Everybody is good. Even the mean girls are not complete ditches. This seems to be a simple cheery teen rom-com. There are a lot of referencing 80's and 90's especially the music. They're passing notes in class for heaven's sake. In the modern era, a kissing booth is impossible for a high school fundraiser. I don't think it would work for any fundraiser. This stuff hasn't been done since Revenge of the Nerds. Leaving that aside, their kiss makes no sense. He wouldn't be waiting around at the kissing booth. The plot is so simplistic that the movie refused to develop a love triangle. It threatens to try early on and quickly draws back. All of that is fine until it tries to be overly dramatic. There is no real drama to be had but the movie insists on injecting some big emotional conflicts. It could have done some smaller emotional arcs to maintain its poignancy. He's going to college and that's enough for emotional drama. As for Lee, the movie deliberately gives him a girlfriend before the reveal so that there is no chance for romance. The first half works somewhat as a light teen rom-com geared for girls. The second half struggles to make it dramatic when it doesn't need it.
alexandra_ik How many times does a junior need to take her clothes off to get her crushes attention? At least 3. And dont forget to take a picture of her dancing half naked in the boys locker room and put a giant poster of it up for prom....
shsims I love it, really would like a second movie to see what happens with El and Noah!
