One of the best things about this movie is that it doesn't revolve around a tortured love story. Instead, it focuses on the journey of two best friends, Amy (Kaitlyn Dever) and Molly (Beanie Feldstein), as they embark on an unforgettable adventure before graduating high school. What sets this film apart as a lesbian story is the early goal set by Amy: to have a romantic encounter with another girl by the end of the night. Throughout the hilarious and relatable chaos they encounter, the movie offers a refreshing perspective on the tumultuous transition into adulthood.
