Based on writer/director Hayley Kiyoko's hit single and best-selling novel of the same name and featuring all-new music from Kiyoko, GIRLS LIKE GIRLS is a heartfelt coming-of-age story set over the course of one sun-drenched summer, where new-girl-in-town Coley falls in love for the first time while learning to accept herself along the way.

3/5

The romantic relationship in Girls Like Girls flounders the instant it gets going, however, because Sonya’s hot-and--cold (mostly cold) attitude toward Coley is so confusing and poorly articulated.

A memorable coming-of-age story, at times beautifully realized and occasionally a little undercooked.

Girls Like Girls gives us a sweet story about two girls in love, but it could have been even more effective if it just dug a little deeper.

Filled with the high emotional stakes of youth that feel no less dire, Girls Like Girls paints a colorful emotional landscape in an unforgettable feature.

.... just as joyful, tear-jerking, and unabashedly gay as I expected, possibly even more so.

I love the movie. I felt seen through Coley and Sonya since I resonated with them and how they were feeling. What I especially love the most is the music so I bought my vinyl record.

Any self respecting queer person should come out and see this film. All LESBIANS should definitely do what they can to see it. I drove 2 hours and wish I could afford to drive another 2 hours again because it was that good. I love this movie, it was poignant and beautiful. Everyone was so real that I felt like I was right there that summer in 2006. My film of the year (mainly because I probably won't go to the movies to see anything else, but still).
