There are just so many cliché concepts in this movie, awkward girl with glasses and bangs, blonde mean girl, gay best friend, love triangles, etc. Worst of all, i hated how annoying the protagonist was.
When it comes to movies like this, the directors are supposed to create a protagonist that the viewer can relate to and side with, but they made her so intolerable that it was impossible to side with her. There were too many moments where she got herself in cringey and stupid situations that i had to pause the movie and sigh from second-hand embarrassment.
I could go on for days about how annoying this character was, and how annoyingly predictable the plot was; but i could not stand how whiney she was. She always complained about everything not only in her narrative, but in situations that are not suitable. Like who the heck would start moping over a guy during the funeral of her best friend's grandpa?! Let's not forget how she continuously stalked and pined for a guy who already had a girlfriend, and she was annoyingly persistent on going to a party she wasn't invited to (or wanted at). Overall, her pick-me behavior just got worse throughout the movie and it was hard to sympathize her.
Also, the age gap between her and the guy she ends up with is a little (a lot) weird. Idk if that would be illegal in that country but it had to have raised some eyebrows.
In general, this movie was annoying and it's not worth watching.
