The Rundown: To All The Boys I've Loved Before follows a young girl who writes love letters (AND ADDRESSES THEM!) to her crushes, in order to get over them. Seems silly, but once they're mailed out for real, her life does a complete 180 -- in a good way.

This film has an overload of cuteness and it's nod to famous 80s teen references, automatically makes it an instant teen classic. Netflix, is making major strides in the teen romcom space, and this movie might have just put them in the lead. A huge shout out to author #JennyHan, for putting her foot down and insisting her leading lady remain Asian-American. Major props to the studios for attaching both a female director and screenplay writer to the film as well. . Movies with similar vibes: Kissing Booth, The DUFF, Love Simon, A Cinderella Story .
