To All The Boys I've Loved Before

Have you watched it yet?

We’re quite fond of a good old fashioned romantic movie at JOE.

Matter of fact, we think everyone is.

Some lads won’t admit to it, but deep down we all know that they’ve watched The Notebook at least four times.

They’ll tell you their girlfriend made them, but they’re lying.

And there hasn’t been a romantic movie as good as To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before in a long time.

We’re not alone with this thought. Netflix have released figures that show that it’s one of their most successful movies of all time.

According to Variety, the streaming service released its Q3 earnings report, and it showed that more than 80 million of its subscribers from around the world watched one the movies from their “Summer of Love” selection of rom-coms over the past few months.

It also found that To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before was the most successful of these love stories.

They described it as one of the “most viewed original films ever with strong repeat viewing.”

The plot is a great one: What if everyone you ever had feelings for found out how you felt about them, all at the same time? When her secret love letters somehow get mailed to each of her five crushes, Lara Jean finds her quiet high school existence turned upside down.

And if that’s still not enough evidence that you should watch this, it has a 96% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Enjoy it! We won’t judge you…
