The gal who played the MC was ridiculously cute. She was probably the main reason I stuck with a "kiddie" movie. I'm a lot older now and it takes quite a bit to like (really young) YA books and films.The thing is, I don't remember 16 year old boys this way AT ALL. Even all the guys at our church constantly had over-flowing hormones. None of them were ever that serious or real. Many of them got married young, just to get physical. All us high school girls WISHED boys were this mature and could express their feelings like this movie portrayed, but c'mon... They're not and except for the occasional kid, most 16 year old boys don't conduct themselves in the manner that this movie portrayed. Boys fell for girls all the time, but the immaturity was a constant. In that age group, I can't recall one guy as sweet as Peter got, not to mention two of them. Both Peter and Josh were well-spoken and conducted themselves as if they were much older than 16 year old kids. Anytime a movie is made with kids in mind, I think all of the adults involved, like the producers and directors, don't take a true look back to their high school days. This girls mother died when she was young, but Peter's father bailed and got himself a new family. Except for a couple of minor issues with abandonment, both of these kids were so well-adjusted for living in a one-parent home. While it's not an impossibility that high school boys can be genuine and share their true thoughts and feelings, it's just really rare. Boys have their moments, but in reality, these movies aren't a true look into teens. It's just another fantasy story. Because I loved the actors in this and thought they were exceptional, I gave the movie a higher rating, even though it didn't feel like teens in real life. I laughed because Peter continuously said "Woe, woe, woe woe" because he did this a bit too much and I was rolling my eyes, but the guy playing him (Noah Centineo) was great in the role. Lana Condor is as cute as a bug in a rug. She's just adorable. Loved her and loved her acting. This is a modern day Sixteen Candles, which by the way, is mentioned in the film. That movie is decades old, yet everyone still loves it. I am normally a Sci fi girl, but when you've seen all the new movies, you gotta look elsewhere and this is what I chose. Good job! I didn't know any of the actors, but they all did really well in this.

Cutest and most amazing teen romcom! loved it all! Really hope for a remake of the 2nd book!!

The book was way better, the main actress does a horrible job and she's really boring to watch, the guys are as bad as her, the youngest sister is probably the best in the movie, and that's not good for the movie, I guess. I felt like I wasted my precious time on this movie, meh.

It is nice to show teens a romantic movie. Based on the thoughts of the main character.. all the rest casting was just auxiliary. A bit wrong casting.. the older sister had nothing to do with the family and the father too tall for these daughters. But again a nice story for teens narrative and emotional.
