The overall rhythm of the film is good, and the music is very nice.
Due to the difference in cultural background, it is difficult for me to agree with the initial motivation of the protagonist in the movie (Isn't it to solve the problem of bullying, why did he suddenly pick up girls? And his friends agreed to him???) and some behaviors (like makeup). In many places, the character changes are quite abrupt (for example, when the bully finally returns to help them, it will inevitably fall into a cliché).
Also, it may also be cultural differences, I think the characters (especially the male and female protagonists) in the movie have a maturity that does not match their age, which refers to their mental maturity, not behavioral maturity. , the behavioral maturity is still very close to this age group.
The director paid too much attention to the two protagonists in the film, and even turned a blind eye to the rest of the band, especially in the second half of the film.
It may be due to cultural differences (I really can't find any other reasons), after watching the whole movie, I feel very awkward, but I can't tell where it is.

2019-10-2 Supplement:
My first impression of the heroine in the movie is that of a social girl, out of step with the cowardice of the hero. Later, the male protagonist said that the female protagonist was only 16 years old. I was skeptical from the beginning to the end, waiting for a reversal, waiting for the female protagonist to tell the male protagonist that she was already very old and would not fall in love with a child. , I didn't expect to wait from beginning to end, that is to say, the heroine is really 16 years old? (Ireland looks like this at 16? What does 26 look like?)
The protagonist's love pursuit process in the movie is a little too smooth. Whether it's learning that the heroine has a boyfriend or being forcibly wiped off the makeup on her face by the bully teacher, compared to the whole process, it's simply insignificant. This makes the overall "chicken soup flavor" of the movie particularly strong.
