Distributor

Raunchy, heavily immoral, Liberal, Feminist, pro-Gay empowerment message-film aimed at teen girls

Here’s what the distributor says about their film: “Two academic superstars and best friends who, on the eve of their high school graduation, realize they should have worked less and played more. Determined not to fall short of their peers, the girls try to cram 4 years of fun into 1 night.

‘Booksmart’ is an UNFILTERED comedy about high school best friends and the bonds we create that last a lifetime. Capturing the spirit of our times, the film is a coming of age story for a new generation.”

Negative—I'm sorry I hadn't read the synopsis here, TOTALLY ACCURATE, of the vulgarity, blatant immorality, pro-gay just all of it Disgusting! I was so very disappointed, because it had very very high reviews, and so I went by myself, and I am over 50, raised 4 boys, am not a prude by far!

I had just seen “Long Shot” last week and enjoyed it, except for one part of the premise of making her lover and eventual husband acceptable to everyone by not defending a tape released by the opposing party during her presidential campaign where he was masturbating to her, everything else other than that (which I guess in every movie that’s considered an adult movie at all they've got to thrown in such). But, BOOKSMART… makes me feel so sorry for the Youth, for a movie like this to be directed at them teenagers is a coming-of-age movie is Despicable; it's really sad.
