This movie was a close shot to a relatable romcom for and about teenagers. I assume that it was supposed to be awkward and silly, but a lot of the scenes were just unnecessary and made me ask why they were even included. In many scenes, there's unnecessary dialogue, like Avery telling her whole class that she "popped her cherry," and there was no humor or any reaction from anybody else but her. She's an unrealistic girl who acts just about the same as a robot would, and is incredibly oblivious to the world around her and has the biggest superiority complex I've ever seen. What happened to her long distance boyfriend? Why does Avery interrupt as many classes that Larson is in to either spill out her feeling or just make things awkward? And there's a whole scene where a girl has an orgasm by humping her damn chair. Were they running out of ideas and just needed some filler scenes to elongate the movie? Also, just to put it out there, the synchronized swimming sex scenes? Yikes. This felt like I was watching a sad episode of Family Guy rather than a teen romcom that came out this year.
