Trying to raise my girls in this world, they are young and don't know the social difference between race, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, etc. Now, mind you, I'm a middle aged white dude, married with three little girls, who leans Republican, and voted for Trump. The soundtrack was great, the pace was perfect, and it was just a fun damn movie to watch. His parents were so fun to watch, and that speech his Mom gave him made me fight back some tears. The acting was fantasic - the kid that played Simon was so likeable. Also, I didn't get any work done - my eyes were glued to the screen.
I'm a sucker for romcoms anyway, but this movie had me laughing hysterically at points, then tearing up at others. I planned on catching up on some work emails while it was on in the background. My wife heard it was great, gave me a brief synopsis of what it was about, so I said sure why not. I knew nothing about this movie before I watched it.
