The Duff

...quickly and convincingly, it becomes its own funny and fast-paced phenomenon with its own modern-day charm.

...Cagan's playful script finds sly ways to tackle modern matters of body image, cyber-torment, and social strata while allowing Whitman and Amell to show off their considerable charms in the process.

Ari Sandel’s The Duff is a standard-issue high-school film, but it has some funny material.

Mycket kring dagens sociala medier och digital mobbing gör filmen dagsfärsk. Problemen, elakheterna och lösningarna är tidlösa.

This Rolls Royce teen high-school movie is powered by a sparkling comic turn from Mae Whitman.
