Pretty cute movie
I watched this as I was on an Arthur Chen binge but was pleasantly surprised by the acting of Haha He. The female lead is cute and not annoying, and they really made for a cute friendship couple. The love chemistry however, wasn't really there.
The high school vibe is pretty strong (perhaps because the main actors are young and still look like high schoolers), and it did remind me of my own 'summer'. There are also a lot of cute scenes that makes it for a pretty light hearted watch.
I didn't like the twist at the end, though. I felt it was overdone. And the thing that attracted you at the start (the actors being convincing as high schoolers) made it hard to digest when it pans to them 7 years later and are adults. I just felt that they were too young to be convincing as adults, and so at times I was very conscious of how inexperienced they are to acting.
Overall, it was pleasant. A lot of cute scenes. If you like Arthur, you'll appreciate him here. Definitely very much geared towards the teenage audience though.
