Love, Simon - Movie Review

The Sandlot, Boyz N The Hood, Breakfast Club, Goonies, Love Simon..my favorite coming of age films.

Overreacting? Simon was completely manipulating his friends for selfish reasons, which could've potentially drastically affected the outcome of their lives. Think I'm exaggerating? I introduced two of my friends in high school back in 2001, they've been together ever since, and have been happily married for 10+ years now with 2 kids. Simon dissuading Nick to ask out Abby and trying to force Abby and Martin, and Nick and Leah together could've potentially prevented such a relationship. I don't know how well you like to treat/respect your friends, but to me, that type of manipulation of people who trust you and consider you one of their best friends is extremely effed up. In fact, in the middle of the movie, I turned to my friend and said, "This is messed up what he's doing. He's like an evil villain."
Maybe calling him an "evil villain" is a bit of an exaggeration, but his friends' responses certainly weren't overreactions in my honest opinion.

Love Simon felt like Diary of a wimpy kid and High school musical mixed together and more mature

"At one point, I thought his friends were overreacting a bit over something."
Fucking thank you. My thoughts exactly

A story about a guy deciding he wants to have sex with other guys is... ADORABLE. Is it adorable that I want to screw girls? Didn't think so. Why are people celebrated for choosing to have sex with someone? Oh... I KNOW... Because it seems rebellious... WRONG.. EVIL!!! and against society, nature, and therefore... it must be ... RIGHT, in the twisted minds of people today.
Good is evil and evil is good. Christians are repulsive bigoted nazi's, while a degenerate who wants to commit what the majority of human kind since the beginning has called a detestable or even abominable act is.. as this guy said... ADORABLE, just in the same way thugs, thieves, murderers, illegal immigrants, etc. are all so awesome, as are every CULTURE, and religion, besides Christianity.
Have you ever wondered why every religion and cult under the sun is CELEBRATED under the umbrella of Culture, and DIVERSITY, yet Christianity is hated and loathed, as if somehow, some people don't have a right to .. .THEIR culture? Odd isn't it. It is because in the end, it is a spiritual war, with atheists, evil doers, idolaters, marxist, socialists, humanists on one side, and Christians and Jews on the other side.
Who gets mocked and ridiculed in movies for their religion? Hindu's, Musllims, etc.? Nope.. Christians. Who do people have to supposedly apologize for being? WHITE? Who has pushed Christianity in the world, and created a nation based on Biblical laws? White people? Who do people hate? White people. Why do people hate the police? Because it was white men that made those laws, under a government guided by Christianity. All of this is pretty simple, and if you aren't the cookie cutter liberal, then you are WRONG!!! End of debate. Its just time for name calling.
If you are a White Christian, especially male, you don't deserve a say, or a chance to speak your mind. You should be shouted down, ridiculed, silenced, and maybe even pummeled. That is where we are in the world, and especially in this Country, where voting for someone will get you harassed or beat up, but being gay will make you famous.
How far we have fallen.

Deeply satisfying movie. A catharsis of some sort for me, and so it begins..

I loved this movie!!! It was so amazing!! It made me cry and laugh and by the end i was cheering him on! I could relate to him in a lot of ways. I baught the movie i loved it that much

Fav coming of age movie Eighth Grade, IT, and Spiderman Homecoming

I expected to like this movie, but I went to see it right after finishing the book and all I could do for two hours was cringe at how exaggerated and dumbed down the movie made the story.

Definitely 100% recommend. It’s super cute and can relate as an lgbt person my self but anyone can watch it if they love a good cute love story. A++. 🌈❤️

I love this movie, it's genius. But to be honest, the ending felt a little shoehorned in and a bit too forced but i like the movie none the less. The ending keeps it from a 10/10.

I disagree, for myself. For others yes they might feel some type of good feelings, I did not though. Pushed me farther away.

He adored it! Sounds gay!

Far fetched!

Lol parent says "remarkably self aware" and good point about people being deeper than their sexuality.

I am still sad that you never did a review on Call me by your name :(

9/10 .. One of the best movies I've seen in a long time. :)

This is legit my favorite movie of all time

Hannah Baker was a THOT

Nick Robinson was in Jurassic world Jeremy

Love this film gotta see it again

I finally got around to watching this movie and I absolutely loved it. There were definitely some scenes where I teared up because they were emotional and so good. Nick Robinson did an awesome job as Simon. I would definitely watch this movie again. Even the music was really good and the ending. Oh the only ending was really cute. If I were asked to give this movie a rating, I would give it an A+.

I agree with everything you said‼️genuinely this was me the entire time during the movie, I’m glad you agree.

Caught the movie with a bunch of friends last evening, and we all loved it. Thanks for the review and recommendation, Jeremy.

I was turned off from this movie by one line of marketing. I was at a movie theatre, one of Love Simon's posters said, "At the concession stand, you have to form a line, but it doesn't have to be straight." I knew right there I would not be seeing Love Simon

shit review

GGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

This movie was fucking 4 hours long. I can't believe you recommended this self congratulatory teen drama as something compelling, man! You said it was for everyone. You lied to me. That's what hurts the most, man....
Top 10 anime betrayals

Someone take me to see this dammit

Wish I could've heard your thoughts on Call Me By Your Name!

hey do call me by your name

One of the years best!

Drama teacher was hilarious 😂😂 this was an amazing movie and yes I hated Martin too

Your so sexy 😍😍

My girl is my favourite coming of age story

I was blown away by this film. Very funny, and quite emotional. I don't think you have to be gay to relate to Simon, it's not that one dimensional.

For me, this was an extremely dangerous movie in that it was too lovie/dovie in your face gay friendly sending the message to young people that its ok to be gay without even remotely touching on the homophobic aspect of it. There are young males out there who may think they`re gay and this movie might push them to come out and then be subjected to grotesque vulgar homophobia where they`d end up becoming depressed because of it and feel suicidal because of the hellish existence homophobes have made their lives and then the realization that they`re not gay but misdiagnosed as gay because of an inadequate sex education but the damage is now done and they had to live with a gay label forever. This movie is extremely reckless and careless in not at least touching on the homophobe aspect of being gay which homophobia is a harsh reality and whether I or anyone else doesn`t like it, it does exist.

Simon gay Lul

Thanks Jeremy imma use that

the theme sounds like Call Me By Your Name

He was in Source code

just saw love, simon last night and i completely agree with EVERYTHING

I loved the book. You're right it wasn't just about him being gay. It was about him as a person. I hope it conveys well on film.

Perks of being a Wallflower (the bok, not the movie) is my favorite coming of age story. Edge of seventeen is a very close second!

Jeremy watch Kings of Summer
he is amazing in it

this movie looks so gooood!!

"Havent"

Please do a spoiler review on this as it would make a big impact as a gay person hearing a straight person who appreciates this movie talk bout it more in depth x

Loved this movie. When Josh’s apology scene happened I was tearing up but this movie had a lot of laughs too

Paghot

I loved loved loved this movie really cute

I've watched this movie 8 times now with different groups of friends and i still love it its just omg the feels and jsut seeing the huge happy smiles on everyone's faces lgbt or not after it ends its a wonderful feeling

Omg. I love this movie. there’s comedy. Drama. Romance and a tiny bit of mystery. It’s hella adorable from beginning to end. The young actors were so goood. Quite “unknown” but I see them becoming the next big names in Hollywood :)

Ha! Gay!

People asking about the comment section... When in your country education is more expensive than a house, this comment section happens...

I plan on watching this movie but I'm baffled that Jeremy watched this movie but never reviewed Moonlight.

loved the movie and love your review

It seems like everything becomes gay in states of united America. That is so gay.

HA! GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The movie didn't have to redeem Martin Addelson because in the book Simon vs The Homo Sapiens Agenda, Martin keeps apologizing but Simons final comment is that he doesn't really know if he'll ever forgive Martin. Simon's reasoning is very clearly stated when Simon is being followed by a Martin as Simon heads to his car after his first day of having to endure the entire school's reaction to what Martin callously wrote on the school sponsored Tumblr site. Near the very end of the book Martin writes a huge apology saying that he envies Simon for having so many friens. Martin doesn't realized that is over the top ego prevents him from establishing any real friendships at all.

I'm gonna read my bible.

Jeremy is WOKE

Lady Bird is my favourite coming of age movie.

as a lesbian i cannot tell you how refreshing it is to have a teen coming of age drama with a gay lead and an accurate portrayal of coming out so i just love this movie

To be fair, I don't really think they were overreacting. I mean, he was kind of manipulating them because he was scared. Ok the initial anger is understandable. Eventually I'd probably forgive that friend.
Oh yeah, drama teacher was fantastic.

Did Simon got a tape?

100% Kid Flash is the gay person

Gay agenda????

Haha, if I ever said something like"I'm a kid, I'm supposed to overreact" that would not be an acceptable excuse in my family 😂😂

I don't understand conservatives you hate sjws censoring things yet you want to censor anything with gays in it either all of is ok or non of it is also republicans used to censor gays with the motion picture production code that didn't stop gays from existing these movies aren't propaganda

STEP BACK I THINK I’M GONNA VOMIT

Not watching this movie

So excited to see this movie! Pretty sure Nick was in Melissa and Joey and Jurassic World, love him, glad he finally got a lead in a movie! "I'm shit with faces apparently" 😂😂😂😂 dead!

you have to fucking review 'Blades of Glory'

My favourite recent coming-of-age film is 'Me and Earl and the Dying Girl', in which I'm also looking forward to seeking Olivia Cooke in 'Ready Player One'.

Saw this movie in my hometown which is 90% Mormon, surprised a Tuesday late showing was very full.... Then was even more pleasantly surprised by the audience reaction... In Idaho... with about 100 Mormons. A movie that can elicit sniffles, laughs, and finally awwws at the kiss in the last scene is obviously doing something right. Great movie.

Nice review Jeremy.

It was so funny hearing this review because when my friend and I discussed the movie after watching it we literally said the same thing that you did about all the characters

review one day at a time

Yo man, you should review "I Can Only Imagine"

Please tell me you saw Lady Bird, Jeremy.

Can you review “The Greatest Showman” please? 😊

CALL ME BY YOUR NAME IS BY FAR MY FAVOURITE LGBT MOVIE

As a "Dice, Camera, Action!" fan, that title is too on time.

Holy crap, Nick Robinson (Simon) is that creepy kid from Jurassic World!
Alexandra Shipp (Abby) was incredibly attractive in this film.
I was waiting to yell "Fuck Yeah" if that kid ever got punched.

Me, Earl and the Dying Girl is a really good coming-of-age movie.

I can’t believe I’m old enough that josh duhmel plays the father of a teenage son

What a gay movie

great review. Glad you liked it. I thought it was very well done.

Movie gets R for retarded Crap

Shitty gay crap 💩 pathetic that gay movies are being made and idiots watch this shit

I love how the movie (LIKE HOW YOU SAID) isn't just about GAYNESS! It shows that gay characters can be whole lot more than just 'gay', I also preach the movie's interpretation of the different kinds of gays (Masculine, Feminine/Steryotypical). This was an overall amazing film, go watch it!

Nah, coming out in 2018 isn't a struggle and no one will judge you or cares about it. Very few people are genuinely homophobic but I'd never support a movie like this.

I hated highschool lol

The drama teacher is in INSECURE and she’s great there too

Meh

I will not subscribe to a TVclipr who promotes perverted films. Unsubscribed.

It’s a movie about an homosexual, then it’s a movie making a mistake

Jeremy, I'm currently watching "The Mentalist"...man you should see this too...this is awesome :)

Love, Simon is my favorite movie ever now. I saw it opening night and I absolutely loved it. I laughed and cried and maybe felt my heart melt a few times. Overall, great movie. 9/10 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
