Neil Welch Georgia fancies Robbie who is going out with Lindsay so she starts plotting with her friends even though her parents won't let her have the 16th birthday party she wants and besides her dad is getting promoted to New Zealand and her mum may have something going on with the hunky builder...This film is based on books which I haven't read. It is OK. It's not terribly original, but is mildly amusing nonetheless. The acting is, for the large part, no better than adequate and, regrettably, this includes the adult cast as well as the teens. The only cast member who stands out as good as Aaron Johnston who, of course (and, I suspect, not entirely coincidentally), has gone on to bigger and better things.

melissadakersghs I absolutely love this movie! It is my NEW favourite movie! My favourite actor is Aaron Johnson. I just bought it because it looked interesting, and Blockbuster was going out so I got it cheap, and I am so happy that I got it.I have got the books now because of this movie.The actors and actresses were picked perfectly for this movie. It was the most cutest movie ever, and I love how it is British. I love British humour so much!!!!I love it how they talk about the parents the way they do. It really tells the truth if some teen walked in on their own parents who were kissing right in front of them. Me and my friends watched and I still laughed, even if it was my second time.

Jackson Booth-Millard From director Gurinder Chadha (Bend It Like Beckham), this looked like it could be a pretty entertaining British comedy based around another coming of age story, the title was certainly catchy. Basically it is the first day of school for Georgia Nicolson (Georgia Groome) and her friends Jas (Eleanor Tomlinson), Ellen (Manjeeven Grewal) and Rosie Barnes (Georgia Henshaw) living in Eastbourne. They spot two good looking brothers moved from London, non identical twins Robbie (Aaron Johnson) and Tom (Sean Bourke), and the girls follow them as new friend Dave the Laugh (Tommy Bastow) shows them around. Georgia plans to get close to Robbie, as he likes cat like she does, so she pretends her cat Angus has gone missing, it is instead Tom that gets the cat and he starts dating Jas, while Robbie goes out with Georgia's rival Wet Lindsay (Kimberley Nixon). Georgia's father Bob (QI's Alan Davies) is planning to move the whole family to New Zealand because of his new job offer, while he is away her mother Connie Nicolson (FAQ U's Karen Taylor) looks like she is spending too much time with handsome hired builder Jem (T4's Steve Jones), making her question her parents' marriage. To "grow up" for Robbie, Georgia starts "perfect snogging lessons" with Peter Dyer (Liam Hess), and infatuated with her he attempts to kiss her at a party one night, and she falls over exposing her knickers to her friends and Tom, and because Robbie saw her she tells Peter she is a lesbian. The next day Tom, Jas and Robbie go swimming, and Georgia stuck babysitting her little sister is there too, and she gets to kiss Robie, before he leaves saying that he will call her later. A few weeks later, Robbie's band, the Stiff Dylans, are doing a gig, and Dave the Laugh invites Georgia to come along, but before she gets the chance to talk to Robbie she is stopped by Lindsay. Both Dave and Robbie realise the jealousy scheme that Georgia was plotting, and they both stop talking to her, and an argument with Jas confessing she leaked this information means they are not speaking to each other too. Thinking her life is no longer worth living in England, Georgia initially says she will go with her father to New Zealand, before finding out that Robbie has dumped Lindsay for her, as he still likes her. In the end, thinking that her mother is planning an uncool fifteenth birthday party for her, Georgia is surprised to see all her friends attending a club, with The Stiff Dylans playing on stage, her father returned and staying home, and she and Robbie get their confirming kiss. Also starring Eva Drew as Libby, Imogen Bain as Headmistress and Ingrid Oliver as Miss Stamp. In the leading role, young Groome is really good with her dry sense of humour, the embarrassing parents get their time, and the other supporting cast members get their moments too. The story mainly focusing on hormonal teenage attitudes to love, snogging, fashion and maybe a little mention of sex is appealing when it doesn't use gross out jokes, it is just witty dialogue and well acted comedy drama. Good!

gurrrrrrlllll Right, I've watched this film with my friends because it's awful but at the same time we rip it apart because at the end of the day it's so cringey and bad that it's really really funny..Why is it bad? Well. 1- It gives girls false hope... No, being 'quirky' and a total 'clutz' doesn't make the guys fancy you. Robbie (the Sex God) goes "she's just the perfect nutter!" But in reality, no one wants a perfect nutter. No one's going to go "AWW she fake tanned her legs and dressed up as an olive one time! She's so individual!" And there's a difference between being quirky and being mildly retarded...2- The culture of teenagers is dramatically unrealistic. At the end of the day, if you turned around to see 4 girls in a classroom doing a completely stupid dance in the centre where everyone can see them, complete with finger spins and brushing their shoulders, they would get merked. On top of that, all the main friendship group seem to dress terribly. It's as though an archetypal designer of Tammy Girls came along and dressed them all up in knitted pink tank tops or a purple t shirt with long white sleeves behind them. They looked like absolute dweebs.3- You sympathise with the main villain. Georgia, the irritating and unfashionable main character, steals the boyfriend from the main 'villain', Lindsay. Now Lindsay at the end storms onto stage and demands her boyfriend come back and everything, but is publicly humiliated when her chicken fillets are pulled out. Now, really...? Is this really a good message to send out? Is it good to promote the idea that people with chicken fillets are pathetic and deserve to be teased for it? At the end of the day, even the thought that you'd lose your boyfriend to a whiny, less attractive and less socially aware girl with a severe deficiency in maturity, was probably enough to damage that poor girl's self esteem, let alone the public removal of her chicken fillets. 4- The acting was plastic. Robbie's voice is so hilariously high, and it's brilliant to laugh at. Jas speaks to Georgia as though they've never really met before and that they're on a set acting, which they are... And Georgia emphasises every word in a nasal voice that will drive you insane.5- The dialogue is abysmal. This kind of crosses with the culture point I made, but it deserves a section all to itself. Teenagers do not speak like the characters in this film do! They don't! No one states that someone is 'from Vulgaria'. Nobody says "snoggin'" and they definitely do not claim that they are a 'snoggin' sensation'. Jas delivers a cringe worthy string of phrases about the boy she likes, and whilst doing so makes a total tit out of herself: "He has a fit bum! QUALITY lushness. Oh I just want to go over there and snog his face off!" I know this can't be an accurate manner of speaking. Oh and Georgia delivers another line that will infuriate you: "Remember. He's from a broken home, so you have to be extra sensitive." Here she uses the implication that being with a divorced parent requires more sensitivity. I don't really know if the writers were purposefully trying to make Georgia dislikeable...So having moaned about the film (and believe me, I could've written more), it's thoroughly entertaining if you're watching it with like- minded friends who want nothing better than a good session of ripping it apart and laughing at the idea that some poorly delusional person wrote this fantastical fairytale between a 'sex god' with a helium high voice and a moronic heroine who tries to find hope in her obnoxious and boring life that was once filled with My Little Ponies, listening to Scouting for Girls and concocting 'snogging scales'. I think a sequel is necessary, where Georgia wakes up from her dream and tries to turn up at the door her boyfriend usually waits at, only to realise that the events over the past few days have been nothing but a dream.
