Everyone deserves a great love story, but for 17-year-old Simon Spier, it's a little more complicated. He hasn't told his family or friends that he's gay, and he doesn't know the identity of the anonymous classmate that he's fallen for online. Resolving both issues proves hilarious, terrifying and life-changing.

Love, Simon works because it feels like a love letter to a specific queer internet borne of staying up late, sweaty and paranoid, on the family computer. Go to Full Review
Andrea Gronvall Chicago Reader Mar 5, 2020
This beguiling romantic comedy offers a fresh take on the familiar premise of a high-schooler trying to fit in. Go to Full Review

The film is a landmark in LGBTQ representation, but succeeds on its own merits. Go to Full Review

Thanks to director Greg Berlanti and his talented team, Simon gets a great love story and gets to share it with us. Go to Full Review
Michael Cuby them. Sep 26, 2022
The best thing Love, Simon did for queer media was pave the way for Love, Victor, its superior spinoff series...nevertheless, the latter wouldn’t exist without the former, and for that, I will always hold a soft spot in my heart for Berlanti’s adaptation. Go to Full Review

5/5
A timeless teen comedy that could not be more inclusive, diverse or air-punchingly, smile-inducing saccharine feel-good mulch with heart. And a giant beating heart at that. Go to Full Review

Albus W Apr 25, 2019 Empathetic and heartfelt, Love Simon overcomes some missteps and offers an enjoyable coming-of-age film.
Leia R Apr 17, 2019 This is how you use the rom-com formula to create a fresh, coming-of-age movie. Love, Simon is delightfully cheesy and wonderfully predictable as it tells a sweet, funny and smart teen love story with a heartwarming happy ending. It's well-written, well-acted, and has got a smashing soundtrack. To think it took this long for a movie like this one to get made is outrageous. Let's hope 2018 is only the start of a streak of great movies that inspire diversity and inclusivity. See more

Luke L Apr 7, 2019 This film will make anybody going through a bad day wake up with a huge smile. #It_Bightened_My_Day_:)
Draco R Apr 5, 2019 With great acting all around, a simple story with the emotional ups and downs that keep you invested in the characters, and finally a climax that is unexpected yet totally satisfying--This is an amazing movie! See more
