Love, Simon

The Gist: Simon is a regular teenage guy. He has a nice family, a tight group of friends, and is in high school. He’s also in the closet. Then, one day, a mysterious message on a bulletin board stirs passions in his heart that he finds hard to manage.

Love, Simon is a really, really good movie, and not just if you’re gay or lesbian. It’s a wonderfully written story that talks about love, friendship, family relationships, and bullying.

Nick Robinson is excellent in what will surely be his breakout role, and I also really liked Katherine Langford as his best friend Leah.

The Bottom Line: If you’re looking for a good comedy that also skillfully delivers some important messages, look no further. Love, Simon is a must-see.

Grade: 9
