I first saw this film about 3 years ago. I managed to predict the entire plot, which I put down to luck and the fact that I am, of course, a genius. However, having watched it again a few days ago I discovered the other factor involved; before I saw this movie I had seen about 20 different versions of pretty well the same thing. This film is no less than your stereotypical teen movie and certainly no more. That's right, its another Drew Barrymore film although unlike her other movies such as 'The wedding singer' which is at least original when it comes to jokes, if not plot, 'Never been kissed' relies totally on classic one-liners such as ...  Read the complete review

The running time is 103 minutes. It is a really funny comedy. The screenplay was written by Abby Kohn and Mare Silverstein. ...  Read the complete review

note: also appears in part on Flixster and The Student Room Never Been Kissed is a film that I never really expected to like - I tend to dismiss these sort of films - that is, chick flicks - as vapid and baseless films that do little to satisfy anyone outside of their target audience, but this film actually has a fair degree of charm, largely thanks to a winning lead performance from Drew Barrymore in the lead role. It also skewers the high school cultural conventions quite aptly. Josie Gellar (Drey Barrymore) is a 25-year old woman who was a nerd at high school and so has never been kissed, as preposterous as that is (and it still would have been ...  Read the complete review
