Here is a review of the movie 'Alex Strangelove(2018)'
'A cliché teenage drama'
Story: Alex Truelove(Daniel Doheny) is a smart, handsome, charming and virgin teenager who gets finally ready to lose his virginity with her hot girlfriend Claire(Madeline Weinstein). However things take a massive turn when Alex meets Elliot(Antonio Marziale) at a party.
Reason for 3 stars: Strong acting, good story, great background scores, weak direction, dull screenplay.
What's Good: The fact that the movie has something new and that the movie effectively portrays it well.
What's Bad: The fact that even though it has something new, it remains to be a cliché. Although the movie effectively portrays the new theme, it fails to find it appealing and relatable.
Bore Part: Netflix producing a cliché must be a little boring.
Review: Netflix's original Alex Strangelove is a tale of happiness, despair, confusion, betrayal, realisation and everything you find in a teenage drama. The movie fails to feel something new and soon starts irritating with it's ridiculous predictable scenes.
Suggestion: Avoid if oppose homosexuality.
To Watch Or To Not Watch: You should give it a try.
