The Kissing Booth (2018)
A lot of these bad reviews are in bad taste and not a true reflection of the movie (and the series in general).
A lot of people that are saying this has a ridiculous message for teenagers - what message are you expecting? This is how teenagers behave, in a lot of ways, this movie is quite accurate (I mean, aside from being best friends with a guy and falling in love with his brother). It has a lot of the same recurring themes in modern-day spins on Cinderella (generally unpopular girl, a laughingstock, gets noticed by the hot dude, the "OMG"/popular/"plastics" girls fake friendships to further their agenda of getting with the hot dude, relationship is rocky but ends in predictable reunification). I would classify this movie as in the same genre of "Mean Girls", it was a flop at first, but if you stay in context of the plot of this movie, it's better the second time 'round. It's not meant to be perfect fairytale, or a movie of redemption, or any kind of depth-filled meaning. It is a coming-of-age series. They are teenagers, they're acting how teenagers act. Partying, lying, backstabbing, drama, overreactions, etc, etc.
Jared from Subway: Catching a Monster (2023)
Sickening
The acts described in this is incredibly sickening and I actually couldn't watch this straight through. The people criticizing Rochelle Herman are out of line. She was significantly impacted by this investigation, she deserves to tell the story. This isn't about the acts, it's about the investigation. If 20/20 or 48 hours has produced this, of course it would be more about the acts. But the name of the show is "Catching a Monster", it's about the capture and the investigation. It was well done and turns your stomach, as it should. The events described of course were horrifying and frustrating. Well done show. 7/10 because it's just disturbing.
