Romantic comedies can feel tired, but in a cinematic landscape filled with action and otherworldly adventure, it can be a breath of fresh air to just watch people be people in a wonderful city.

All things considered, a strong contender for best film of the year you didn’t know existed.

Rated: 72/100

Charming, warm, witty and refreshingly un-Hollywood. One of the most honest, funny and wise romantic comedies since (500) Days of Summer.

In as much as 31 Candles is a romantic comedy paying homage to classic films, it is a coming-of-age film touching on Jewish themes.

Rated: 4/5

Steven (Quad Cafe)

Charming coming of age movie, though main character is 31 yrs old. Never too late to "come of age" and accept oneself willingly !!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Funny, intelligent, witty and delightfully entertaining! The cultural humor here is well done but universal and appealing to all walks of life.
