Booksmart

First, the good news: it's immediately clear that Wilde is a filmmaker by vocation... If anything, the film is polished to a fault: the marketing term "elevated genre," most frequently applied to horror, feels equally apt here.

It's more John Hughes than Judd Apatow, and it's a little more Bridesmaids than Lady Bird...a success on [its] own terms...

Booksmart puts a fresh spin on the coming-of-age night-of comedy because it's focused on two girls, one of whom is also queer.

A solid debut for Wilde, but really puts Dever and Feldstein on the map.

Booksmart is a love letter for any young woman who has ever stayed home on a Friday night to watch a Ken Burns documentary.

In virtually every scenario, director Wilde and the team of screenwriters serve up the material in a fresh and original manner.
