Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

First things first, Angus, Thong and Perfect Snogging isn't going to win any awards for being the best movie of all time and objectively, it's pretty damn awful, but I still enjoyed watching it. It's easy to watch, stupidly funny and everything you'd expect from a typical teenage chick-flick/comedy made in the noughties. The cliches are unbearably cringe and the stereotypes are all wrong (your typical plain girl Jane gets the best looking guy in school and in the process butts heads with his pretty blonde girlfriend that is by default a brat) but this isn't a movie that should be taken seriously. It's definitely not a realistic take on what it's like to be a teenage girl since it's over-invested in those teenage girl stereotypes from American movies - late night sleep-overs, bitchiness, naivety, boy obsessed etc. On that note, considering this movie was British, it didn't feel very British at all and the behaviours of the characters and general feel of the movie felt more American than British (the only British elements to the movie were the accents and the setting). However, this movie works if you're looking to switch your brain off and have a few giggles. It is feel-good and improved my mood, so for me, that's what earns it the rating I've given it.

(Sorry in advance for any typo's or grammatical errors, I am not a native English speaker)In the beginning of the movie the main characters (4 teenage girls) act like they are 11-12 years old. They are shy, scared of talking to boys and have really childish sleepovers where they eat pizza and talk about immature subjects (In a heavily exaggerated and annoying teenage way). The interaction between the boys and girls in the movie is quite innocent in the beginning as well, with shyness and awkwardness, almost having a resemblance to highschool musical. Soon enough however the scene changes completely, and the girls start acting like they are 20 years old. One would assume it would be a gradual change, but not so much in this movie. One day one of the girls gets asked out, and the next day she is having a very sexual, very long french kissing session with her new boyfriend at school - in front of her friend (the main character). Their relationship is also very "adult like" in other aspects, not at all like the kind of relationship you would expect a person who is just experiencing these things for the first time would have. They act like they have been dating for years, sharing everything (although only knowing etcher for a few days) walk together, sit together in the school cafeteria (often "snogging") and generally behaving like a couple in their twenties. The main character is also suddenly more mature. She falls into a bush with a guy at a party, and after he gets up her knickers are showing and the people who happens to see her, assume something sexual went down. (Weird that not even her best friend is surprised since it was mere weeks ago (maybe days) they giggled over having their first kiss - now she is having sex? No big deal). What I am trying to say is that the girls maturing happens at an unnatural pace, almost from one day to another. They start off way more childish and oblivious than girl that age would be, and end up acting well above their age. But lets move on..The main character is also immature and downright mean from the start, creating schemes to get what she want, lying to pretty much everyone, using other people, being mean to her little sister, and in the end humiliating a girl who really haven't done much wrong, other than telling the main character to keep away from her boyfriend. But I suppose she gets away with it because she looks so incredibly plain: Ethnic with a big nose, close-set eyes and big lips. In the end she also manage get the hot guy (not very believable). Anyway, the hot guy's old girlfriend comes on stage at the main characters birthday party and speaks her mind about how awful the main character is. However the main character tells her to act like an adult, but then continues to do the complete opposite herself, as she helps humiliate the poor girl who just lost her boyfriend. The old girlfriends bra inserts are thrown over the stage while everyone cheer, and as the cherry on top our awful main character gets a kiss from the hot guy all while people cheer and celebrate her behaviour.But of cause the old girlfriend deserves it, being all blonde and "stereotypically" beautiful. Let the plain jane win, no matter how awful she is. So this is my verdict: Plain acting, annoying main character, bad plot, mediocre movie.1/10 If you want true to life teenage drama where the characters doesn't act way below their age, I recommend "Skins UK" or "Fishtank".If you want a family friendly teenage movie, turn to Disney or "Mean girls".... The fact that some people say they watched this movie with their parents makes me uncomfortable.

This movie was a horrible adaption of Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging. It is the kind of film that absolutely destroys the idea the author of the original piece was trying to make.Georgia Nicolson is a silly, immature teenage girl who likes playing pranks and is absolutely boy crazy! To sum it up, the plot is Georgia's pursuit of a boy she calls "The Sex God" (aka Robbie). In her attempts to make the handsome older boy fall in love with her, Georgia gets herself and her friends into zany situations. Despite her painful embarrassing family, crazy cat, and strict private school Georgia manages to come through on top, with her guy! The problem with this movie is that it takes a hilariously silly, lighthearted book and tries to fit it into the normal template of a tween/teen movie. They stuffed in too many clichés, made the audience sympathize with Georgia's shallow complaints, and threw in some morals and "maturity". The charm of the Georgia books are not only Rennison's hilarity (which this movie got JUST a taste of) but the way she poked fun at how shallow and ridiculous Georgia was. It was always clear that the things Georgia thought were so important were...just trivial, childish things. Because as many of us know, most things teenagers think are wildly important are...not, and that's quickly realized in a few years. But this movie makes it seem like every other stupid teen movie does--that your desperate search for a boyfriend, and desire for a smaller nose and less embarrassing parents DO actually matter and ARE important. In fact..this movie ended up being just what the books make fun of, shallow and stupid. It also destroyed the lighthearted, hilariosity of Georgia by making her "mature" in the end. That may be good for other characters, but the fun of Georgia is she stays completely silly and airheaded for years.For the most part, this movie destroyed the characters. This film took away everything that made Georgia special and original. It made her just another recycled teenaged girl character, which is truly disappointing. Her actions, which are supposed to be hilariously shallow and silly come out as whiny, bratty and annoyingly shallow, even manipulative. Georgia's parents have lost almost all personality, except the fact that Georgia's mom is flirtatious, which they push too far and make her flat out inappropriate. Dave the Laugh is NOT funny at all, and way too sensitive, when he is supposed to be an immature horndog. Angus also has no personality, little screen time, and is an ugly, gray Persian. Was it really that hard to find a large, orange tabby? Especially when they gave him nothing to do in the film? Jas was actually okay, but her chemistry with Georgia was not very good. The ONLY character that actually made me laugh and acted how I pictured was Libby, Georgia's three year old sister. And she was only on screen for a few minutes! I know I'm comparing this to the book a lot, but that's because it came from such fantastic material. But on its own? This is just another dumb tween movie with a few chuckles. It might be likable for some young girls who have never read the books, but otherwise it's forgettable. This is one of those films you should really just skip and read the book instead.

I last saw Angus, Thongs And Perfect Snogging a few month's ago, and thought it was a fantastic film. It is about a 14 year old girl called Georgia Nicholson. Georgia and her friends, Jas (Eleanor Tomlinson), Ellen (Manjeeven Grewal) and Rosie (Georgia Henshaw) see two new brothers, that have just moved to Eastbourne from London. Their names are Robbie (Aaron Johnson) and Tom (Sean Bourke). The girls follow the boys, Georgia falls in love with Robbie, but does not catch his attention as quick as she would like. Her friend Jas Starts to go out with Tom, what Georgia does not know is that Robbie is seeing her rival at school, Lindsay, who she hates. Also her dad goes off to New Zealand and he wants the whole family to go with him.She goes to the beach for a walk and finds Robbie there . Robbie tells her that he has dumped Lindsay and he says that he still likes her. Alought I think that this film is mainly for girls i do think that boys could still enjoy it. I think that all the actors in the film were great, Especially the actress that played Georgia. GREAT MOVIE!!
