Coming from a person who has watched a lot of rom-coms, this is by far the worst I have ever seen. I watched it and subsequently made my friend watch it also, so we could laugh about how bad it was. Our judgment was not only based on the non-existent plot, but also on the extremely poor acting which added the comedy aspect to this neutral film. On top of this, this is simply just a poor attempt at replicating the film Starstruck, which is far far better. If your thinking of watching this film, I'd recommend you just watch Starstruck instead, or bang you head against a brick wall for an hour and 27 minutes, because that would probably be a better experience than watching this dreadful film. However, if you are in the mood to watch this with a friend and make fun of how awful it is, then go ahead because that's what we did and it was quite fun. Don't listen to the people who say it is good because they are deluded, don't waste an hour and 27 minutes of your life watching this when you could spend that time doing something worthwhile, for example baking a cake. In a nutshell, we are teenage girls who love any sort of rom-com, but if this film cannot even be tolerated by us, then I don't know who it can be tolerated by. However, if Zac Efron had played the lead boys role, we would have know complaints. Jordan Jaye's gelled back hair at the end really didn't do it for us - he looked like a tadpole going to a dinner party. The whole time you think you're watching a romance blossom, but at the end you realise you've just been watching a guy who looks like a tadpole and a pizza delivery girl be friends for an hour and 27 minutes. Do seventeen year olds not even kiss anymore? LAUGHINGLY AWFUL.
