Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.
A lot of fun.
When I watch a movie mostly I just want to be moved.. and this moved me big time. Funny, Everyones on the top of their games, killer soundtrack and heavy hitting gut punches. Highly recommended

View MoreI can't understand how is it that most of the people love this movie. I found it pretty boring, because THERE'S NOTHING REALLY GOING ON, I mean there's no plot or at least a worth developing plot. He's gay, right, and that's it, like the whole movie goes around this issue (which is obvious cuz that is what the movie is about) but it could have been told in a hundred more interesting ways, not in a teenager cliche using emails. Besides, these emails, which are the 'romantic' tool, are supposed to make you feel sorry for the main character and build a bond between you and him so that you can understand his feelings, because that is how it works. However, they are worthless, they do not make you feel any pity or love or anything. These emails are meant to be mind blowing because they are the only way in which Simon can express his feelings and struggles, as non of his mates know about his true sexuality, but poorly they aren't. They are missing a spark. The ending is lovely, as the guy who he exchanged emails with decides to go out and finally show the world his inner self, by meeting Simon and kissing him, which I found really cute. But when I saw it was him, I couldn't remember who he was! This guy only appears a couple of times throughout the movie, mainly at the beginning, and then he disappears. You are not familiarized with this character, so my reaction was some kind of 'Who the hell is this guy and where did he come from?' Something that was awful as well was the reaction of his BEST FRIENDS! When they find out he is gay, they don't give a crap about it, though they know how lonely and desperate Simon was feeling. They are just mad because he had lied to them, and that's undeniably true: he messed up. But if you are his best friend, you do not leave him alone at his worst. Besides, the way in which everyone found out he was gay was no cool at all, so they should have at least first asked him ARE YOU OK? But they didn't, and it was pretty rude. I expected so much more from this movie.
View MoreThis movie is more important than you think. If you just think, something is hard to tell, just watch this film. It helped me a lot get trough hard times, and I think everyone who is struggling with these "problems" should watch this movie. Thanks for everyone, who made this film.
