Basically, a female version of Superbad. Funny, smart and entertaining.

This movie is a comedy, yet its comedic elements are its biggest weakness. The obvious improv feels mostly awkward and ill-suited to both of the main players. Who are kind of outshined by much of the supporting cast. This movie makes a great case for Billie Lourd, Diana Silvers and Molly Gordon. And Lourd was obviously the highlight. Up until the final act, that is. 'cause that's when the movie went mostly deep serious, sprinkled with some fun quips here and there. Which worked much better.

Loved this delightful romp, jeez. It's fucking emotionally honest, the characters are types, but they're freshly rendered in this. Kaitlyn Dever and Beanie Feldstein are a riot, while Billie Lourd is fucking killing it, I wanna see her in everything (SW totally wasted her, but if she's anything like her mom, she has a long career ahead). The comedic timing was great, the pool scene was beautiful, and the emotional pay-off GOT ME. Loved to see these girls learn how to have fun.

Billie Lourd was absolutley delightul in her turn as spaced-out angel/guide Gigi. The rest of the acting was bog-standard. I understand it was part of the character but the way Beanie Feldstein's Molly was written really made her hard to root for. It really brought down the rest of the movie.

I honestly loved this. I was expecting this to basically just be a genderswapped Superbad, and while there are some elements in there like that, it feels a lot more genuine and therefore drew me in more. Honestly I could have watched another hour of this movie.

Takes awhile to get going for me but the weird fever dreams interspersed throughout were the little shot in the arm the movie needed. It's just so weird sometimes. There's really witty dialogue and more than enough cringe to go around, and about as close to an American Pie or Superbad that we're likely to get in 2019, complete with some serviceable 80s/90s bombast. It's weighed down a little bit (unfortunately) by the big blowup, but the ending is satisfying for sure. It's worth checking out.

Overcooked. Licensed music blasts over emotional moments, indulgent directorial flourishes are pretty but drown out what's actually going on between the characters, dragging it out while simultaneously (and in one crucial point literally) muting the feeling. I just could not get into the depth of this.

The 'Female Superbad' descriptions have been common but after seeing Booksmart the parallels between the two are almost distracting with how many similar narrative beats occur through the runtime. Still, like the movie it mimics, Booksmart is funny and that's the main thing. Great cast of characters, but unfortunately there are some jarring story twists towards the end that seem to be for dramatic convenience rather than believably earned and this let the climax down somewhat for me.

Frustrating comedy needed a tighter reign behind the scenes, with Wilde proving unable to pull together the disorganised strands of the "too many cooks" screenplay. Moments of insight and genuine emotion are buried under strident, abrasive characterisations of all and sundry, and a real lack of intelligent insight into modern high school life. Perhaps it's because recently we have been spoilt for choice for intelligent youth based movies, but this fails to live up to recent genre highlights.

a modern John Hughes movie: a diverse ensemble of teenage caricatures learn powerful life lessons in a day they somehow didn't in the preceding four years. the performers aren't bad, even solid; but the direction is hollow. Wilde's tendency to resort to slow-motion song-driven montages for emotional beats takes away any sort of chance for the actors to develop any intimacy with their characters. I don't think I laughed even once; there's no surprise in its humor. watch Eighth Grade instead.

Despite an iffy start, it picks up as it goes along & never really loses steam, staying interesting and engaging the entire runtime. It also features spectacular performances by Feldstein & Dever, plus great work all around by the supporting cast. Not all the jokes land & some parts definitely feel forced or out of place, but there's still plenty of clever humor, smart writing & enjoyable characters to make for a good time. Overall, it's a very solid modern teen comedy & is well worth watching.

I'm pretty far from the target demo but I enjoyed this more than I expected to. The dialogue is clever and funny and the performances are solid across the board with some outstanding performances from the young leads. Demographic be damned, it's just a well made movie..

Unexpectedly funny and touching. Script is mediocre, but the leads are supreme. However, "Superbad" is still superior.
