Everyone deserves a great love story, but for 17-year-old Simon Spier, it's a little more complicated. He hasn't told his family or friends that he's gay, and he doesn't know the identity of the anonymous classmate that he's fallen for online. Resolving both issues proves hilarious, terrifying and life-changing.

Critics Consensus

Love, Simon hits its coming-of-age beats more deftly than many entries in this well-traveled genre -- and represents an overdue, if not entirely successful, milestone of inclusion.

Love, Simon works because it feels like a love letter to a specific queer internet borne of staying up late, sweaty and paranoid, on the family computer.

This beguiling romantic comedy offers a fresh take on the familiar premise of a high-schooler trying to fit in.

4/5

The film is a landmark in LGBTQ representation, but succeeds on its own merits.

Thanks to director Greg Berlanti and his talented team, Simon gets a great love story and gets to share it with us.

The best thing Love, Simon did for queer media was pave the way for Love, Victor, its superior spinoff series...nevertheless, the latter wouldn’t exist without the former, and for that, I will always hold a soft spot in my heart for Berlanti’s adaptation.

5/5

A timeless teen comedy that could not be more inclusive, diverse or air-punchingly, smile-inducing saccharine feel-good mulch with heart. And a giant beating heart at that.

Simon doesn't look or act like a "typical gay", and that's exactly the point. A warm, honest film about the fear of how everything might change after coming out: friendships, family, the way people look at you. Helps you understand what others go through in a way that feels genuine rather than preachy. Based on a novel. Recommend.

I love this film. It's funny, moving, and relatable for a lot of people that have been through similar journeys. Nick Robinson plays the role well, and his respective scenes with both Jennifer Garner, and Josh Duhamel after they learn his sexuality are powerful. I happily rewatch this.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom
