It is quite good. Cheesy maybe but hit on spot for the school love. As they're evolved from letters to text messages, this ending is expected. The leading lady did a good job and her cuteness is what makes this movie watchable. Happiness is everywhere in this movie and it's good.

Better plot than the second, but not as interesting as the first one. Acting and cinematography is good and consistent with the other films.

What a beautiful song to conclude this sweet series adapted from the YA novels by Jenny Han "To All The Boys I've Loved Before". While not as strong as the first movie, this third and final film in the trilogy was better than the second film. There were some great Seoul travel shots and some wonderful shots of New York City...but ultimately this was the final entry in Peter and Lara Jean's romantic love story that started with a bunch of love letters and a fake relationship...and is concluded in this film which starts with The Covey (Lara Jean's) Family in Seoul, Korea for spring break. The big highlights in the film are the senior trip to New York, finding out about college acceptance, the prom, Dr. Covey's wedding, and graduation. This film is like a post card for high school romance and doesn't delve too deep into any heavy topics, although they do make an attempt to heal Peter's relationship with his father and touch on the Covey family grief in regards to their mom.
Sweet, good hearted escapism and perfect Valentine's tribute!

The first film in the franchise wasn't anything groundbreaking, but still felt fresh. The second installment was, in my opinion, a major downgrade, particularly in terms of character development. Now we have come to the conclusion of the trilogy, and a movie that feels just like a hundred teen romance dramas that have come before it.
The main criticism is that this movie doesn't implement anything that hasn't been done before. Really, from the second the plot of the movie becomes apparent, anyone who has ever seen a movie will be able to guess what happens. It's a simple story of 'girl loves boy, but girl receives a huge opportunity that forces her to choose between her own life and her relationship'. Some standard awkward situations follow, that could as always be so easily avoided if the characters possessed even a lick of common sense. The couple breaks up, realizes they do still love each other, and eventually decide to try and work things out. Doesn't that sound familiar?
The saving grace of the movie are still its characters however. Lara Jean is a charming, kind and positive spirit, while Peter distinguishes himself as a supportive and caring boyfriend. The Covey family dynamic, and their Korean roots, are fleshed out even further, and deservedly so. It's the little interactions between the characters that give the movie most of its charm.
The actors do a fine job, and the cinematography and camerawork deserve some applause as well. The humor in the film is fine, but also feels derivative of other teen comedies.
All in all, this movie is by no means the worst of its kind. It has its moments and several positive aspects, but it falls flat in simply providing nothing that original or new to the genre or movies in particular.

I'm annoyed that it was the EXACT same plot as the last two-super cute in the beginning, a break up in the middle, and then a super cute make up at the end. Just substitute NYU for John Ambrose and you got the same movie.
I gave it a 6 because, like the other two, the cinematography, costume design, music, and actors were so damn likeable! Although, I would expect a Hollywood hair stylist to figure out extensions by now-the hair was driving me crazy.
Overall, I REALLY wanted to like this, but it just felt like I was rewatching the same movie over and over.

It's a nice romantic movie. But why.. is everything.. and I mean everything... blue, yellow or pink?
Once you notice it.. can't be unseen...

For context, I am a 28-year-old male who has never seen the previous movies. (My wife wanted to watch it for Valentine's Day). I am not the target demographic, but I did enjoy the movie.
The acting is good, the writing is actually good, and the cinematography is surprisingly excellent! It's a little too sweet overall, but it is a fairly easy film to watch.
It's nothing over-the-top, but the movie does not do anything wrong in my opinion.

Condor's performance was as always charismatic. Honestly,the movie didn't disappoint me. I didn't expect too much so I got wt I expected. It's a good way to end the trilogy. What makes this trilogy different from other cliche rom-coms is the soundtrack and definitely the cinematography. It's surreal and the direction has a feel good vibe in it. Overall if you enjoyed watching the other two parts, you'll probably enjoy this one.

I guarantee its not like the second movie that made you want to gauge your eyes out. This movie did provide a beautiful ending but there was something about it that I felt it was missing.
I kinda wished they did a little more with it, it's almost liked they played it safe this time. Not necessarily a bad thing but there are many ways they could've done so much more.
I do recommend watching it, it will absolutely exceed your expectations if you were thinking it would be like the second.
Give it a go, watch it. It won't be a waste or your time for sure!

This film is not exciting, not funny, not really very romantic, not educational, not trhilling, not suspensful, I just cannot really see the point of it.
I have seen the previous 2 films, the 1st one was lovely, I liked it. The second was already meh and now the third is the worst one in my opinion.
Sure, the scenery was lovely, the actors were the same sweet people we were used to and they kind of had a logical storyline. But. It was boring, it really was. I wanted to enjoy this, but instead I found myself thinking of other movies I should watch instead, other feel-good entertaining movies. This was not very entertaining to me unfortunately.

An average and typical american high school love story with an interesting and likeable teenage girl as the main character, and her also interesting family. A solid ending to this movie trilogy. The rating refers to the overall impression.

So I loved the first movie,it was a cute teen rom com as it's supposed to be.
The second one was a downgrade from the first but still had some good points and was actually entertaining and had some tension.
This one, well, was simply terrible. There is nothing that happens in the movie that warrants to be told. I haven't read the books so I don't know what happens in it but this definitely felt absolutely unnecessary. Just wasted 2 hours of my life. So unproductive, lags on without anything actually happening.
Do not waste your time on this.

I write this by saying, I thought the movie had a lot of cute moments, you watch this to have a virtual hug on your heart, this won't win any Oscars but you watch this for a good time and to end with a smile.
A lot of people are giving this a 1/10 star for some reason maybe for how it ended but I liked how it ended, didn't follow the trend that college needs to end things.
Nice trilogy, liked these movies, Lara and Noah played the parts beautifully, focus on the positive guys and just have a good time.

Delivers a decent conclusion to the franchise. Story is too simple like the previous outings, had a few draggy moments here and there, could have used a few trims and shortened the movie by 15 min but nevertheless it had decent duration compared to most rom-coms. If you watched the previous installments you'll most probably watch it for the closure, which this movie delivers more or less.

I'm a big fan of high school rom-coms, but nothing happens in this movie. The couple are trying to decide which school to attend for TWO hours, that's the whole plot. I didn't manage to finish it and I'm really surprised by the high ratings.
Always and Forever was another To All the Boys adaptation that ended on a lighthearted note. The plot stayed somewhat loyal to the book which I appreciate, and as usual the cinematography was really nice-it had the ability to make you wanna just curl up on your sofa with some hot cocoa.
Sentimentality aside, this definitely wasn't a perfect movie. Don't expect Oscar-worthy acting or a mind-blowing plot. Its simplicity and sophistication made this conclusion satisfying but at the same time leaves you with that feeling that you're definitely going to miss it.
A bit on the cliché side but it was just what I needed.

I knew that some of the details from the book would have change due to the location of the story. The book takes place in Virginia. The movie is set in Oregon. But I didn't expect some of the major conflicts and characters to be missing. I'm not going to give any spoilers but some things were watered down and some things were added that just don't make sense. This one missed the mark for me.

The plot is basically nothing, I have no idea how someone could make a movie out of this.
