Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

The First Time, is an instant classic! The movie is funny and stands out. A story about love and how strong and connected a couple needs to be to stay together no matter what. Dylan O' Brien and Britt Robertson have such a great chemistry and work along great. The First Time is a great representation of showing ones feelings for another. However, my rating was due to some problems I had with the film, though all in all the movie was satisfying and a favorite."The virgin and the skank, a tale as old as time."-Aubrey Miller, The First Time

I began this film with the same amount of hope I have for any teenage romance comedy: not much. I was expecting a few witty quips, some tolerable acting, and a quietly unique take on an overused story. Apparently, this was too much to expect. While the story was fresh, the timeline was too fast, making the film too unrealistic to enjoy. The acting was, well, not good, and if I ever see another change my mind, stop in my tracks, and turn back around, I may vomit. The film is called 'The First Time', but the sex-talk was unrealistic and wasn't integrated into the film and its characters well enough, and the amount of time spent revolving around the topic of sex was not enough to warrant a title. Overall, it was too unrealistic to enjoy.

I don't think I've ever felt so many different feelings in a single 90 minute period before.Before I watched this movie, I was so sure that I knew exactly how this film was going to pan out; I'd written it off as 'just another rom-com' before I'd even finished reading the title.I should never have pressed play. Honest to god. If I'd known that my 'favourite film' - a spot never before occupied for me - was about to become The First Time then I would have turned and ran a mile in the opposite direction. I mean, a high school love story? Pfft. But, the thing is, this movie gets it. That's never happened for me before. I mean, I'm a cynic, I'm a narcissist, and never in all my life have I swooned over actors and on-screen romances, because they've never really felt real. This film did. How is it feasibly possible for a movie to capture the most charming, frank and unavoidably awkward moments that life is really all about, and strip back a love story until it hardly seems pretend anymore? Honestly, the acting, the script, the chemistry, the soundtrack; this is what films should be about.I just think that, speaking as a teenager who hasn't had a whole lot of first times to speak of, it just makes me see things from a whole different perspective. The first time - for anything - doesn't have to be perfect, but I feel as if every other film I've ever seen has geared it up to be that way. But here, every possible awkward thing that could happen... happens. And the acting is so brilliant that it feels like this film wasn't really written at all; it just feels so real. And even though the end result - let's face it - was always going to be the same, the journey that these two characters make to get there, with all it's unexpected twists and turns, is what makes this film what it is.It's been a long time since I've seen a movie like this. And honestly? I'd rather I didn't see another one like it; I don't think a movie like The First Time can be done more than once.

it was an excellent movie , without too much drama or too much romantic thing . Talks about love with a very special way . It reminds me , my love story that wasn't the normal way of love but something more special and more based on how you feel and how you connect with you love . Some movies are easy to love, or hate. But "The First Time" is hard to hate and easy to excited with . I don't feel the need to summarize what the movie is about, as the other reviews and the summary does that job, but I really enjoyed this movie. The writing for this movie really stood out to me, as the conversations felt so real between characters because of subtle little things that happen in most conversations in real life. That's a credit to the actors as well, but when you see the movie, especially the first time the main characters meet, you will understand what I mean.
