Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging (DVD)

You must be a fan of the Geogia Nicolson books before you watch this film, as it is essentially for the huge amount of fans! Yet in some ways, if you don't read the books you will never know what a fab girl Georgia is, all all the other adventures she has. The film does spoil these in some ways. This film takes a few of the main characters and plot lines from the first few books. Georgia has a smaller groups of friends called the Ace Gang. the characters are much more toned down than in the books and now they don't differ from every other character in a teen-girl movie. The actors and actresses do a great job and there are more references to popular music and ...  Read the complete review

I have been reading the series of books that this film is based on for years, they are some of the funniest books that I've ever read and even though they are written for teenagers I recommend them to all of my friends. So, when this film was released I had really high hopes for it. I expected that like the books it would be a comedy about the life of a teenage girl. Unfortunately it was a big disappoint for me. The film focuses on Georgia Nicolson, a fourteen year old girl whose father has moved to New Zealand and who has a crush on a boy in the year above her who is already dating another girl. The film is about Georgia's attempts to win ...  Read the complete review

Louise Rennison's classic teen novel 'Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging' has been turned into a film, albeit with a small change in the title, presumably so that parents of the 10-15 year old girls it's aimed at don't worry about the content. But don't be fooled by the central character's age of 14, the youth of the actors involved or the very girly, young looking DVD cover; this is not just a film aimed at young girls. I am a good deal older than the target market and I really enjoyed it, as did my partner! The movie features the character of Georgia Nicolson, played by the charming Georgia Groome. She is a typical teenager with typical concerns: her ...  Read the complete review

^^^^^FILM ONLY REVIEW ^^^^ While browsing my local hmv I noticed their 4 for £20 offer and how pleased was I to find a copy of Angus, Thongs and perfect snogging? Very! As I am thankfully no longer a teenager, I couldn't bring myself to go and see it at the cinema, that and the fact that none of my friends are uncool enough to go with me. So I snapped it up and on my rare night off settled down in front of the laptop to indulge my inner teenage girl. The movie is based on the book series by Louise Rennison which include titles like Angus, thongs and full frontal snogging and Knocked out by my nunga nungas and then he ate my boy entrancers. Which ...  Read the complete review
