The funniest teen flick yet!! - By: S. Slater, 16 Nov 2008
Angus, Thongs & Perfect Snogging [2008]
On a cinema trip with my mates one Saturday we decided to see 'Angus, thongs & perfect snogging'. I hadn't read any of the books but all my friends had & said they were amazing. And it turns out the film was too!

It's incredibly funny & honest & I can't wait to get a copy of the DVD for christmas. Film of the year for me :)

Okay. - By: Jane Field, 16 Nov 2008
I love all the Louise Rennison books, & couldn't wait for the films to come out, but personnally, the were a slight dissapointment. It was a good laugh, & there were some really great parts, though it was quite predictable. You might be thinking; 'Well, you've read all the books, so it's obvious that you'll most likely know what happens.', but my older sister, who hasn't read any of the books, & has even made fun of me reading them a few times, could tell exactly what was going to happen, & me & her went to see the first showing at our local cinema, so she couldn't have seen it before. I think it was really good, just, as I've said, the books were better, to me anyway! I liked the ending though :D

The film for girls in 2008 - By: Vicky Sparrow, 09 Oct 2008
I really loved Angus, Thongs & Perfect Snogging as it is light-hearted & funny, yet realistic with film-y qualities. It is a must see for all teenage girls as it relates to the problems we may have, & is just a fabulous film to relax to. Watch it with an open mind & you'll love it!
I found that as a British "chic-flic" it was much more realistic than the plastic-style ones from America. Nothing is exaggerated any more than the average teenager would & the way Georgia is is very natural.
It involves everything from friendship to family, school to social life, and, of course, boys!
If you want a film which a girl from about 12 to 17 can relate to & enjoy, this is it. Also, if you have read the books it is a fab adaptation, but it does change a lot of the things which happen, so don't expect it to be as good as the books, just different.
Buy this & you (hopefully) won't be disappointed!

Trust me, normal teenagers are doing a whole lot more than Georgia & co! - By: willow, 14 Sep 2008
I knew when I read a movie reviewin The Daily Mail that Angus Thong & Perfect Snogging would be translated on film as a 'tween' movie, the kind of movie that would sit well to the girls drooling over the Jonas Brothers or boasting to having watched High School Musical more than twenty times. The movie succeeds whole heartedlyin creating an entertaining portrayal of the life of a 14 year old to an young audience of 9-14 year olds.

Georgia livesin a quaint seaside townin the north of England, she lives with her little sister Libby & her parents. Georgia & her friends refer to themselves as 'the ace gang'.
The story is set into motion by an older brooding bassist, with a side fringe who looks about 18 (as opposed to 16). Georgia is on a mission to make him her boyfrined & she'll do preety much anything to get him.
There are a few similarities between Georgia & Bidget Jones, the way they both manage to get themselves into embarassing (but funny situatuions)in the name of love & that slightly questionable ability they have to make pretty much anyone fallin love with them.
What I didn't likein the film was the overuse of stereotyping, the way her crush's girlfriend is so conveniently nasty & pretty (think an American teen movie's 'hottest girlin school'). But of course it is a tween movie & it has to cater for the young girls rooting for Georgia.
I wasn't disappointed with the film, I pretty much knew what I was going to get when I bought my cinema ticket & yes you will probably predict the ending even if you haven't read the books which are amazing!
Go to see this film if you are between the ages 9-14, butin relation to a story, I readin a newspaper of a mother & daughter going to see the film together the mother was shocked at the girls antics, I would say that us 14-17 year olds are doing a whole lot more than Georgia & co are, the movie is very condensed, I think there is potentially a great market for mature 14-17 year olds who really want to see something real (like Welcome to the Dollhouse) & it doesn't have to be about drugs or STD's, it seems there is a gapin that market, that it either has to be 'tween' or adult.
In conclusion a good film, definitely not an original idea but for all those Disney & Tokio Hotel lovers out there you can't get much better.
