The Kissing Booth

SHE CAN TELL HER BEST FRIEND ANYTHING. EXCEPT THIS ONE THING.

Elle and Lee (Joey King, Joel Courtney) have been best friends all their lives; falling in love with Leeā€™s hunky older brother (Jacob Elordi) might ruin everything though. A simple, breezy high-school movie that borrows from many better predecessors in the genre (Molly Ringwaldā€™s presence carries a certain symbolism). Critics called it ā€sexistā€, but young audiences ate it up. Overlong and silly, but it has an agreeably light touch and sweet performances by King and Courtney in particular as the fun-loving buddies.

2018-U.S. VOD. 105 min. Color. Widescreen. Written and directed byĀ Vince Marcello. Novel: Beth Reekles. Cast: Joey King (Elle Evans), Joel Courtney (Lee Flynn), Jacob Elordi (Noah Flynn), Meganne Young, Stephen Jennings, Carson Whiteā€¦ Molly Ringwald.

Trivia: Followed by two sequels, starting with The Kissing Booth 2 (2020).Ā
