      Have fun

      Day 6, a top student, a very interesting movie. It tells that two girls have always been the top students in the class. They concentrate on their studies and don’t listen to things outside the window. They don’t go out to play good girls. One day they were slapped in the face, and the class kept playing. They felt that those who didn’t study hard also got into a good university. They were hit hard, and then decided to have a good time the day before graduation. Some of the dialogues felt...

      Chinese are still absent from "Reading is good"-themed movies

      There are only two experiences in my recent memory talking to high school girls, both of which were the children of my classmates and friends of more than 30 years, who traveled from Chicago and the San Francisco Bay Area to Washington for events. At this time, the appearance of the child was basically created by the parents' hard work. In this sense, the achievements of the old classmates were as clear as crystal.

      The two children think clearly and express fluently. One loves...

      Pragmatic feminism after the Metoo wave

      Do we still watch this kind of youth growth film less? Especially from the hands of American directors, ten fingers can't count them. This work also follows the plot routine of this type, with large-scale dialogue, pop music mix, jokes on sexual topics, etc. The film has a precise audience and targets the youth market unsurprisingly. As an actor-turned-director's debut, it is driven by a female perspective in the same vein as last year's "Miss No Bird", but it lacks the focus on family...

      [Film Review] Booksmart (2019) 6.8/10

      Still circumscribed by the usual suspects in an American coming-of-age comedy: first-love crushes and misunderstandings, falling out among best friends, inadvertent trippy experiences, humiliating sex (routinely yoked with bodily excretions), and all-night-long partying (routinely yoked with materialistic showboating), actress-turned-director Olivia Wilde's debut feature BOOKSMART has a clear...

      Those bright classmates on campus

      Young is really too fault-tolerant. You can be gay/straight/bisexual. You can study hard / indulge in fun / pursue freedom. You can like someone, hate someone, denigrate someone, leave someone, hug someone, give up someone. And there will be no consequences for you to bear. Don't be like the teacher in the movie, who only focused on learning when you were free, and then did too many dark things to compensate for the loss of that free time. Some people may worry that, as the heroine said at...

      Three and a half. The emotional and confusing part is much better than the half-hearted part, but I don't like the heroine's performance very much. Some of them are for performance. This script brings the actors a lot of performance space. The film has no goal or is aimed at love or even just confession, the goal of this film is very...

      Relaxed comedy without pornographic relationship and friendship reversal "American high school has a lot of bullying" and "athletic students don't study hard" stereotypes I like the colorful nostalgia of each of them praising "You are so beautiful" after putting on clothes Such buddies. 6/2...

    Movie plot

    High school girl Amy ( Kaitlyn Dever ) and Jasmine ( Beanie Feldstein ) are friends. The top students, on the eve of graduating from high school, found that they had missed the opportunity to play high school life in earnest study.

The two unconvinced decided to make up all the things they hadn't played in four years in one night, and made...
