Hey guys so today I'm going to be doing a Short AF movie review on the movie "Alex Strangelove". As usual, this review is going to be short and sweet (like the title suggests), and spoiler free. (However there will be the IMDB synopsis in this and sometimes they can contain spoilers however 9/10 times they don't. It's just something to keep in mind if you're planning on watching the series).
"Alex Truelove is a well - rounded high school senior with a wonderful girlfriend Claire and a bright future ahead of him - and with plans to achieve his last teenage milestone by losing his virginity. But things get complicated when he meets Elliot, a handsome and charming gay kid from the other side of town, who unwittingly sends Alex on a roller coaster journey of sexual exploration, kicking off a hilarious and moving adventure of love, sex and friendship in our liberated and confusing modern times."
Okay so this movie makes my little LGBT heart so happy. This movie is everything I hoped it was going to be from watching the trailers. Netflix did this so well and I loved everything about it. I loved Claire so much, I loved Elliot. This movie is so pure and so wholesome and you just find yourself rooting for Alex the whole way through. It gets the messages across that it's trying to get across and does it in such a fun way. It's really nice to watch a lighthearted LGBT+ movie. I would definitely recommend this to everyone, I wish I had these types of movies when I was growing up and finding out who I am. I can still however enjoy this at 24 and be super proud and happy that young people have things like this to let them know they are okay as they are, and nothing is wrong with them.
Please, if you have the time, get yourself on netflix and watch this movie! I promise you won't regret it!
Have you watched this movie yet? If you did, what did you think of it? Do you have any movies, series or books you'd recommend for me to watch/read or want me to do a short AF review on? Please let me know down in the comments below!
Have a wonderful day,
Love, Lyndsay
