Honestly I should have known what I was getting into with this movie but I still held out hope that I would absolutely love it. To be truthful the storyline made me uncomfortable and that's where my issues began.

The relationship with Peter was something that bugged me throughout this entire film, the whole relationship started out on the premise that it would be a fake relationship - I mean Lara Jean established a no kissing rule right of the bat - but yet she got so pissy everytime Peter even spoke to another woman. I just didn't get it.

On another note, I think the fact that Lara Jean liked Josh made me even more uncomfortable - that's here sisters ex! That is an absolute no to in my book.

I have not read the books that this film is based off so I can't comment on how well it adapted from the source material but if we're just looking at it as a stand alone film it fails to hit the mark and become another cringey YA romance without any substance. Kind of enjoyable, but nothing to it.
