Critics Consensus

To All the Boys I've Loved Before plays by the teen rom-com rules, but relatable characters and a thoroughly charming cast more than make up for a lack of surprises.

Thanks to films like To All The Boys I've Loved Before, The Edge of Seventeen, and Running from Grace, Asian American teenagers can see dimensional versions of themselves onscreen who are worthy of falling in love, no matter who they end up with.

Thrills in part because most viewers are all too familiar with what it feels like to baldly deny feelings for another person even as they become patently obvious to everyone else.

Much of the movie's success is down to Condor's gentle appeal and her quiet chemistry with co-star Noah Centineo .

One must mention the performance by Condor. Her comedic timing is perfect, but more than that, she really embodies this character...

Every movie should have a Lara Jean Covey and Peter Kavinsky — except I don’t know that we, as a society, are prepared for that much cuteness.

It has a strong, flawed protagonist who reminds us of some important life lessons as she is learning them at the same time.

I personally haven't read the books myself, but based on this movie, it's good. It has charming and good vibes and definitely captures that teen romance that most teenage girls have or have gone through. Props to Kitty—without her delivering the letters, then Lara Jean would have never mailed them herself. Then she would have never fake-dated Peter or been true to herself, realizing that she's yearning for true love at some point in life too.

Ah! Young Love! "To All the Boys I've Loved Before" reminded me I have the heart of a teenage girl, even though I'm a 70 year old man. I loved every minute. The central theme -- L.J.'s desire for, and anxiety about being seen instead of invisible -- is beautifully scripted and played out and also true to a core tension of many introverted emerging adults who navigate the self-other tension. That both L.J. and Peter have lost parents adds depth. Skilfull acting of tenderness/vulnerability, couch/bedroom scenes, soft colors, and light romantic music made this a comfy pleasure. Great plot with Shakespearean twists, keep you guessing. It was great for me to re-live feelings from 55 years ago. Those bored watching the longer conversation scenes may be more extrovered. To them, I would recommend watching again. Some might think the takeaway is to always remember to tell others how you feel. I think tis more about opening up/enjoying the sweetness of life, while it lasts! Ah! Young Love!

everyone was like "you haven't seen this??" and idk why but i never watched it. it was a cute movie, sometimes akward but i liked it. Lara jean liking her sister's bf was lowk weird but i also dk what she saw in peter they were cute though. there's more movies but everyone has told me they're bad so I'm probably not going to watch them.
