Booksmart 2019 / Two academic overachievers from high school set out to prove that they're a smart and fun for one last time.

9.0

Do you keep re-watching Superbad when you’re hungover? Next time you are, try the film that has been praised as ‘the female Superbad”: the amazing Booksmart. Yes, it’s coming-of-age comedy, but, like Superbad, it tried something a little different. Like its two main characters, one could say it’s a bit smarter than Greg Mottola’s seminal bromedy. Molly (Beanie Feldstein, incidentally, Jonah Hill’s younger sister) and Amy (Kaitlyn Dever) are best friends, class presidents, and academic overachievers. Nice girls, too. With excellent grades in their pockets, they head off to college only to find that the same in-crowd from high school that was doing nothing but partying, now goes to the same college as them. Why, oh why, did they choose academic success over partying, when, clearly, they could have had both? On their last day in high school, now here’s a trope, they decide to make up for all the years of lost partying on one night. This sets off a raucous, raunchy, and wildly entertaining ride. And with a feminist twist!

    Can't believe I wasted my time watching this. The movie completely missed reality and was try-hard. Disappointed it was rated 9/10. 3 people liked this review.

    Hilarious, handles some difficult topics very well, and despite being loud and theatrical, pretty true to life. 3 people liked this review.

    Had such a blast watching this, don't expect a true-to-life story but an hilarious ride nonetheless. 0 people liked this review.

    This movie is terrible and not at all based in 'real life'. An amalgamation of Apatow-esque humor, poor character development, and an overindulgence of American politics, it falls flat both as a comedy and coming-of-age film, creating a completely forgettable experience. Watch it and find out for yourself. 0 people liked this review.
