Cert 15 Stars 4

Fantastically funny and heartwarming, this US high school comedy sees a pair of nerdy classmates determined to catch up on the two years worth of partying they’ve missed out on, the night before graduation.

Beanie Feldstein and Kaitlyn Dever are joyous with a winning chemistry, and are deftly directed with sympathy and care by actress Olivia Wilde, on her debut feature.

She gets the very best from her young cast, including an outrageous by turn by Carrie Fisher’s daughter Billie Lourd, soon to be seen in Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker.
