Critics Consensus

The Kissing Booth deploys every rom-com cliché in the book with little care given to achieving any real sentiment.

Was not a pleasant movie to watch. The dialogue was cringy, almost seemed that they brought random words used by teenagers to make it seem relatable. It was not.

Couple of problems: 1. The height difference between Elle and Noah was inexcusable 2. The fact that Lee tried to not allow his best friend to date his brother was understandable, but he took things too far 3. It was so cliche I almost threw up. The ending was unsatisfying and honestly the whole movie was a complete waste of time.

I'm a fan of Jacob Elordi so I'm a fan of this. That aside, it's not a masterpiece but it delivers some entertainment which is what movies are for, right?

[Noah and Elle's] relationship quickly spirals into one of those classic toxic relationships that populate Netflix's teen dramas.

In another film, the sentiment would be a romantic one. In The Kissing Booth, it feels like a cage.

A refreshing film in its start but whose interest soon decays to end up being a mediocre movie. [Full Review in Spanish]

The director seemed to have a strange fascination with the lead taking off her shirt and wearing super short skirts, and the camera lingered on her in ways that made me uncomfortable.

Rated: F

NBC News THINK

It feels like it was written by someone who simply digested everything she was told "romance" was supposed to be by the patriarchy, and vomited back at us. Nearly every cliché in the film feels cribbed from another movie.

Andrew Collins

Radio Times

A smattering of swearing, sexual references and underage drinking means it doesn't patronise its intended audience, and it refreshingly allows the female lead to be the dork, rather than some unobtainable Venus.

Rated: 3/5
