Fun-Natured and Carefree

I normally hate sexually explicit jokes, they just really aren't my cup of tea. BUT, I actually REALLY enjoyed them here. I don't know what the movie did right, but with the fun-natured and carefree attitude of the protagonists, I genuinely found myself laughing along to most of the jokes and comedic scenes, even the sexual ones.

This movie managed to pack in how your twenties can feel vs. what they are "supposed to" feel like, genuine and hilarious friendship, love & heartbreak, sex-positivity, and a hint of social commentary. I enjoyed every bit of it and found my cheeks hurting after smiling for so long. It's honestly the perfect uplifting movie to amuse you and begin contemplating your own twenties and how they went/are going.

I got to admit, the beginning scenes made me feel like this movie was bit behind with the times with the emphasis on "losing your virginity," and other nit-picky things I noticed throughout my viewing. But as the movie went on, you really got a sense of the importance of some of these things to them and as a 22 year old myself, a lot of the themes hit hard. I found myself relating a bit to some of the characters and smiling knowingly every once in a while when I could predict what may happen.

Despite it being incredibly funny, it contains a lot of wisdom as well, which were little pleasant surprises covertly integrated into the script.

Please, please give it a go. I promise you'll get a laugh.
