Watched this 10 years ago and cried, re-watched this again after 10 years and still cried. Will always be my favorite romance movie of all time.
I always like school-romance movie because of this movie. I've watched this movie over and over again, listened to the music over and over again, and still remember the feelings over and over again. I never knew what's so beautiful about this movie that makes it my favorite romance movie, I guess I just like the emotional roller coaster the movies takes me over and over again.
This movie might not be everyone, but if you are like me - someone that craves a realistic romance story during teenage times, go give it a try.

How should I start reviewing this movie? I will first want you to think one thing, movies always have objective, either sending messages, pure entertainment, or combination of both. I won't say one of them is better than the other, since it always goes back to how every movie touches the heart of its viewers.
Plot is nearly perfect. Following the life of a woman that has insecurities because of her physical appearance, I believe many of us relate to the story. You will understand many things about having imperfect physical appearance. Love life, career, friendships, and everybody's perception.
Conflicts are great. I think this aspect is what I love the most. Director has detailed scenes showing the contrast of having perfect versus imperfect body since the very first beginning until end of the movie. Movie is clearly showing about the privilege you can get by simply being more beautiful.
Characters are rich. I have to point out about this movie having perfect portioning of giving life to its characters. Nobody is over or underexposed. Everybody is playing very important role and contributing well to drive the plot.
Dialogues are beautiful. Yes! Please keep this in mind before you watch the movie. It contains a lot of critics to our society, sometimes wrapped by good jokes.
Messages are powerful. I think this aspect is what really giving us the messages. I love about this movie is not only saying that we love to ourselves more (changing insecurities to gratefulness), but also to stop judging and defining beauty of other people. This movie is standing exactly in the middle of social issue, both victims and doers, trying its best to infuse great lessons that we, as both victims and doers, can do much better than what we are doing right now.
I have to give it 1 point less because it lacks a little bit of emotional development. Some good side stories are not fully used to bring up emotions even more. However, this should not stop you to watch this wonderful piece of Ernest and his team. Do give this a chance to watch it now, before this movie gets re-recognized in the future for its beauty.

First thing first, I really tried to understand the hatreds towards this movie. It could be because of its hype, thus people putting the bar very high. Other than that, I am pretty sure you will not hate the movie.
Technical aspects are great! You can notice some beautiful shots, mesmerized by the colors, perfect music, duration is okay.
Additionally, I think we have to give special credit to its characters. Yes plot is solid (I am saying solid because it is not extraordinary), acting is also great. However, one of the reasons why the characters are perfect relies on the beauty of its dialogue. This is one thing that you need to know before watching the movie. Please take a good attention when there are some important dialogues. That way, you will then understand, this movie is sooo simple but also deep enough to touch your soul.
I believe this movie will relate to many of us in our 20s, the very first moments we are facing a lot of serious problems. If you are having difficult times in your life right now, especially relating to family issues, this movie might be the perfect cure for you.
