Reception


Nikki Baughan of Screen Daily found the film laden with teenage romantic comedy clichés, and the 2006 setting "not entirely realistic", but wrote that "two charming lead performances, and a largely positive depiction of adolescent homosexuality ... should chime with its intended teen audience". Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian found the film "sweet-natured and engagingly laid-back, if a bit televisual and reliant on that time-honoured staple that dates from Richard Curtis's Love Actually", giving it three out of five stars.
