This is a great movie but i really hate tge ending 😭😭😭 i really wish they decide to make a sequel. There is never too late for a sequel but i can relate to this movie so much and leaving it on a cliff hanger hurts my heart and a guy like me rarely cries.

I loved this film. It was sweet and sad and oh so real. I really appreciated the fact that they made them go with bare makeup free faces and in regular everyday clothes. And so often with these smart coming of age teen films they overdo the vocabulary, which is great and all but not realistic. But in this movie it felt like the dialogue was pretty spot on for teenage life at the turn of the technology age(no tots aborbs, thot, or twerk to be heard). Just an overall great coming of age film!

I would have liked this movie if I never read the book. The book goes into much more detail of the characters and story. The movie however rushed things along too quickly, I get that things have to be cut or changed so the movie isn't 5 hours long but they just did so bad adapting it to a movie and not to mention the ending was completely different from the book. Not happy with the movie
