Plot

Kat Stratford  is beautiful, smart and quite abrasive to most of her fellow teens, meaning that she doesn't attract many boys. Unfortunately for her younger sister, Bianca  house rules say that she can't date until Kat has a boyfriend, so strings are pulled to set the dour damsel up for a romance. Soon Kat crosses paths with handsome new arrival Patrick Verona. Will Kat let her guard down enough to fall for the effortlessly charming Patrick?

My personal opinion

I would give this movie a 8/10

Originally I was forced to watch this movie by a good friend of mine but I'm so glad she pushed me to watch it because it's such a good movie! I honestly wasn't expecting myself to enjoy it as much as I did. It's the perfect mix between romance, comedy and teenage shenanigans

I love the chemistry between Patrick and Kat. They're adorable together and you could tell that they truly love each other. I also loved how Patrick was able to make Kat laugh and push her out of her cocoon to go out and do things she usually wouldn't like parties and prom...

Would def recommend! 😁

My favourite quotes from this film are...

1. “I know you can be underwhelmed, and you can be overwhelmed, but can you ever just be, like, whelmed?” - Chastity
2.  “But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you. Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.” - Kat
3. “I don’t like to do what people expect. Why should I live up to other people’s expectations instead of my own?” – Kat
4. “Don’t let anyone ever make you feel like you don’t deserve what you want. Go for it.” – Patrick
