(The two-star female protagonist and the male second in Samsung. The female protagonist is very beautiful, and the male second is very cute with a smile.)
First of all, this trend of substituting a relaxed youth campus same-sex comedy movie for the stereotyped life’s stubborn life agrees with the trend, and draws a little closer to the audience, and makes the impression of the lgbt group more plump, and normalizes it. A good thing
But for the whole film, the male protagonist spends most of the time thinking about how to have sex, emphasizing that too many attempts to put a lot of laughter on this part, a little too much effort in this part will cause a little embarrassment. Then it is said that the male protagonist's deep cabinet really does not show up, is to use a memory of the swimming pool to show the "shadow" of childhood? A little deliberate...
As for some people who say that love Simon is too fairy tale than this film... First of all, the tone of the two films is the same with the theme of youth campus, neither is to show the story of bitterness and hatred, so since I like this film There is no reason to scold love simon because its plot is sweeter, because it is essentially the same story tone. And this film does not show the male protagonist because of the contradiction between his family and classmates because of his orientation? From beginning to end, it's just a process of self-identification. The only contradiction that appeared was the memory of the pool (and it happened to be a part that I thought was a little deliberate), and finally I suddenly agreed with myself and then rushed out of the bathroom and it was a sweet happy ending. (Of course there is one more in the movie, I like this sweet part hehe)
I think the reason love Simon is better than this film is that the emotions it depicts are more delicate, not only between Simon and Blue, but also between friends and parents, which are very touching. The low evaluation of this film may be because I think this film is too focused on the male protagonist, and the male protagonist's personality is a bit self-concentrated. (I think a highlight of this film is on Dell and the heroine’s friends)
If you like these two films, don’t spray hhh on each other. Both films have good features, but in general, they are still moving towards the trend of not making that kind of bitter and hatred gay movies. This is also a good thing. Development, a performance that breaks the stereotype, why not encourage more movies in this direction~
