“I dig you so much, so much it freaks me out.”

Sweet. I like to see characters with a real 'soul'. Two protagonists who touch you, who fit together and who have chemistry, wonderful. Dave is a likable guy and Aubrey is a nice, not-so-obnoxious teenager. The blossoming romance of the two is nice, they completely melt together. It takes you back to the moment when you were really in love for the first time, and it was mutual too.

The very beginning of a crush that suddenly happens when you least expect it, it's so exciting. Fortunately, that is also well represented here, nowhere exaggerated or unbelievable. Fortunately, important moments are supported with beautiful, appropriate music. It is touching at times, Dave's clumsiness and Aubrey's awkwardness.

There was no real humor, at least, there is not much to laugh about. Not a loss for me because the romance and following the brand new couple's first 'First times' with all the accompanying struggles was what the film is all about.

Sweet. Recognizable, sometimes not at all. It captivated me from the start.

Nice, especially because of the fresh couple of the handsome teenager Robertson and the fine playing O'Brien who portrays a somewhat insecure character but succeeds very well. Often they become caricatures, but not now, and I could identify with them at times. Furthermore, the pace is good with no scene that lasts too long and the whole atmosphere is just very nice. The many separate scenes with small moments also work one by one. Also had to laugh out loud a number of times due to a very subtle humor.

However, especially the dialogues about sex are rather scripted and therefore come across as very forced and that does take away from the score. 3.5*.

"I dig you so much…"

Still one of the best coming of age movies I've seen. The First Time manages to portray the lives of two average teenagers in a recognizable and interesting way. O'Brien and Robertson are a fine duo, and from the start you can see that Dave and Aubrey are attracted to each other.

Dave is a boy who knows exactly what he wants, but because of his own clumsiness, insecurity and immaturity he can't put it into words. O'Brien is fantastic at this. Aubrey is more mature in her ways, but there's also an insecurity that comes to the surface when she's with Dave. In the end, this film is about the first time they have sex, and these scenes are also presented convincingly. Compliments also for the wonderful music. The First Time is a must for anyone who wants to see an original film about teenagers and their struggles.
