The Kissing Booth (film review)

Film: The Kissing Booth
Year: 2018
Genre: Romance, Comedy, Rom-Com
Starring: Joey King, Joel Courtney, Jacob Elordi
About: A high school student is forced to confront her secret crush at a kissing booth

My Review: 
Seeing a new Netflix rom-com I couldn't resist giving this a watch and I couldn't be more happy that I did.

This film is about a girl called Elle who has had a crush on her best friends brother since she was six. However when they turn into teenagers and they end up kissing at a kissing booth everything changes.

I thought this would only be an average watch when I put this movie on however found myself loving it and couldn't stop smiling throughout it. I thought the teenage situations were rather relate-able and that this film had really good acting from the actors which helped to make this such a good watch. I genuinely can not fault this at all and from finding out that it is based upon a book of the same title have to give it a watch. This film was funny, made me close to tears and really warmed my heart. I wanted so much more of it and can honestly say it is now one of my favourite teenage rom-coms!

I would recommend this movie to those who like rom-com movies and teenage girls as well. Really great film which really surprised me. 

My Rating: 5/5

I also thought it was clever having the gr...

I love how this film although being about football and being something I am not interested in brings it to an enjoyable place for me as well as having the comedy and romance side to keep me fully entertained. Having the film show how the girls team was cut from Viola's school and showing how she just wanted to play and would have played on the b...
