The First Girl I Loved (2021) User Reviews

This movie really resonates with me

[mkphd · 7/10 · 24 January 2023]

I saw some reviews that this movie got an outdated ending but that was what most of our generation had. Wish Sam Yut had more courage to be there for Nam. The story of this movie is similar to my life except me and my best friend didn't have the courage to say that we love each other because in our families and society that's not normal. Most of our adults act like loving someone from same gender was like doing something very sinful. The school scenes brought back my school memories and how simple life was. Watching Sam Yut getting married reminded me about my friend's marriage and the pain i felt. Now she have a baby. But I'm happy for her with all my heart and i still love her the same.

I really loved the Nam's character. The way the actress portray Nam's emotions is so amazing. What i really love about Nam is she was there for her friend no matter how much it hurt her and but still didn't loose her soft side. Great movie. 💯 Worth watching...

Young Love, Outdated Ending

Good attempt for asian film on romance between girls. The ending had me screaming (not out of joy). I wish the movie can portray the bravery found within female romance. It exist.

Heartbreaking Romance

[susan-32489 · 9/10 · 27 February 2022]

Follows two best friends at an all girl high school and what happens when society and circumstance conspires to keep them apart. Wing and Sylia discover a tender love between them that captures the essence of obsessive first love. Mostly their time at school, and continues into their twenties where they hopefully are free to make choices for their mutual happiness. That the director is a woman shows through with tender love scenes and plenty opportunities for tears on screen and in the audience.
