Review of The Half of It

Edit* If nothing else, this movie is charming. This movie is at its best when its exploring the three main protagonists. And at its worse every other time. The movie jumps from plot point to plot point without clear direction or focus. The movie tries to be clever but falls short and the characters change with no explainable reason. When the main guy protagonist finds out Ellie is gay, it conflicts with his Christian belief and he I guess isn't friends with her anymore. After 1 conversation with Ellie's father and probably in the span of 1 week, he accepts it and is back to being best friends with her. It's lazy writing. If you like teenage shows you'll love this. If you don't, still give it a try.
