This movie is about two best friends who still attend high school, however, they're about to graduate. But these girls are seen as disliked and unpopular due to being portrayed as weird and awkward. These girls are presented as very opinionated and naïve to the fact that you can't have fun and go to parties, as well as concentrate on school grades. They are very school orientated and look down on the other high schoolers for messing about in lessons. The only friends they have is each other, so therefore are shown to be very close.
They then have one more night to make themselves remembered before graduation. To do this they try to get to a popular boy's party.
This film follows the theory of Todorov as it is a linear sequence and goes from the start to the end without cutting to the past or future, stays in the present day.
Reviews:
The movie has a 7.2/10 rating from IMDb, Commonsense media rated Booksmart 4/10 and Rotten tomatoes gave the film the rating of 97%.
Adults gave more critical reviews with ratings as low as 1 and 2, due to the film 'being over the top and cringing with the crude jokes and contents, leaving me disappointed'.
Some even saying that 'it isn't appropriate for children and should be given a higher age rating, due to the film being a poor female version of the hangover'
However, some adults give almost full stars.

Another commented on how the movie was 'touching, a lot of humour and feels like a classic'
Some continued to say that they recommend that people watch it.
Although when viewing the kids reviews over 3/4 of them have 4+ stars.
Many commenting on the fact that they can relate to some of the situations and shows 'how it's like to be a teenager in modern society.
