Candy Jar | Official Trailer [HD] | Netflix 

*"My whole life, I've hated you. Not because I knew you but because I thought you hated me too."* That's actually relatable on many levels. As someone who's shy and reserved, some people thought I disliked them and thus disliked me in return. On larger levels, some people hate entire groups of people because they think they are hated by them. If only we all tried to get to know people before making assumptions. I suppose people just want to feel loved and accepted. Maybe we fear verfiying that our interpretation is true and thus make a judgement ourselves to prevent being hurt. At the root of most of our problems and hate is fear. If only we chose to confront our fears rather than let it shape our visions and who we are.

I worked on this movie! I was a PA and this was my very first movie I ever got to work on. So happy that it’s being released.

as a high school debater who debates just as fast and high pace as this, it's actually surprising seeing a comment section this positive about debate yes, we actually speak that fast, and yes having a partner is really just as frustrating sometimes as this movie portrays it usually in comment sections of anything related to debate like this it's a bunch of people who say this kind of debate is trash, so i appreciate all the positive comments

this... is honestly waaaaayyy better than the kissing booth

I am so thrilled to see debating finally get the spotlight it deserves !! As a university debater, this brings back a lot of memories of when i use to be active in our debate club and the tension and thrill and sass that we felt during debates. I miss all my debate partners ♡

Great film it was not about black or white it was about two people who was not getting because of the competition against one another they had their issues they had their problems but they came together to work it out some you win and some you would lose that's how life is brilliant film

Turned it on expecting another generic high school romance to pass the time. Even though it has some of those elements I was very surprised how much I enjoyed this movie. The highlight for me was the chemistry between the two characters. Nothing too spoiler heavy, but there is a montage where they show a progression of their relationship that felt so natural that it was as if I was watching the two actors themselves getting to know each other while filming went on. There were some other plot points that I wasn't expecting which gave the story a little more life and oomph which I was grateful for. Overall if you're looking for a movie to fill that coming of age romance void for a bit you won't be disappointed giving Candy Jar a shot.

This looks cute.

The movie's really good guys! Coming from a person who hates clichés this does not come under that category. It's not a romance about two people who hate each other but they rather have a connection with each other since they've never had any friends and learn to embrace highschool life

This was such a good movie! I feel like not enough people are watching it. Go see it!

Watched tonight and loved! I'm still on the verge of crying - such a FEEL-GOOD movie! So relatable!

Bro. I just watched this and it was really good like....wtf. How am I 2 years late to this movie? I had no clue this existed before today. This had a real heart and soul to it and even the moral of it was on point. I know not EVERYTHING needs a sequel....but I kinda hope they get one.(Surely if we can get 3 kissing booth movies they can also give us a sequel to an actual high quality movie).

This is the most underrated movie on netflix. It was so sweet!

Don't look that bad tbh

Netflix needs to fire whoever is editing these trailers for their films. Reality High, Amateur, Dude, and now this one? All of these coming of age films that have the potential to genuinely spark interest in people have the plot ruined by their trailers. Whatever happened to less is more?

"My whole life, I've hated you. Not because I knew you but because I thought you hated me too." I related to this so much. There was this one girl at my high school, we used to sit at the same table during lunch during freshman year because our whole group knew each other from elementary and middle school, my homeboys sat with me and her girl friends sat with her. After a while, i just didn't like her because she actually had a pretty messed up attitude. During sophomore year, we still talked but it was all shallow conversations, she said that she thought I hated her guts, which I honestly did but when she said that to me I thought she didn't like me either because I didn't approve of her attitude when everyone else sucked up to her. During senior year, we had these things for college prep, I sat next to her mistakenly and I played it off as if i did sit next to her on purpose, as the session went on we talked and I felt like we were keeping a facade the whole time. The next day, during lunch, i was sitting with my friends, who are completely different from the friends i sat with during freshman year (go figure), she came up to me and said "Hi, whats up". She waited for a response and I was kind of confused and i didn't know what to say, I still had that mentality of "we don't like each other, therefore this conversation should be in-existent" , i said "hi (girl's name)" and there was awkward silence, and then she walked away, after that i kind of felt bad. I started trying to be nicer and saying stuff like "you did a good job during the performance" (we were both in performance choirs). There is still this awkward thing where she still has this attitude but then she acts nice sometimes, and sometimes I feel like she thinks everyone hates her and is fake towards her because of her attitude, so i dont know. And to make things even weirder we are attending the same University. if you made it this far, that means i did an okay job at summarizing why i feel that this quote relates to my life.

Just finished watching the movie. Moral of the story line, some times you win some and some times you lose some. At the end it’ll be all worth it because if you continue to work hard. You might just end up going to your dream colleges. Great movie.

Jacob latimore deserves every role he gets + more this guy has worked hard to get here

This movie is suprisingly good! It inspires me to actually join a debate club tbh. Plus look how cute Lona's outfits are :)

i literally left this youtube ad to go watch it and i loved it so much.

Just watched this, and really enjoyed it. Surprisingly good acting, story everything. Netflix is #winning!

2 students that completely disagree with each other are forced to work together to realize that they have more in common than they thought. They eventually develop a romance for a each other. Towards the end of the season they have a fight or some sort of conflict to create tension. Ultimately they reunite and compete. They end up winning or they realize that they don't really want what they originally wanted and sets up for a second season. Yup ill come back to this comment after and see how close I was.

He's that dude from *The Chi.*

I've just watch it on Netflix last night .it shows the gritty and full of pressure of teen life of today .but allways remember peace friendship and love will prevail.

They are master debators

This movie was actually amazing!! I enjoyed it very much 💕💕

They filmed at my middle school, high school, and all around the downtown area! So cool!!!!

I love this movie! I can't stop watching it.

the mother is the CRAZY Black girl of Orange is the new black LMFAOOO

This movie... Up there with the best of em... When Netflix is good... It's soooo gooooood

I kind of just want to watch it because some of her outfits look nice.

Jacob is Booked and Busy!

The trailer doesn’t do this justice it’s amazing! So cute and if you need study motivation watch this

Yes...definitely watching this!

I'm actually interested in this one. You win this round, Netflix.

It really wasn't that bad, I recommend it!

I'm excited. As a debater it's nice to see a series about high school debate, not what we usually get (e.g. high school football, cheerleading, or a coming-of-age movie about outcasts). I feel like I'll be able to relate to this, which isn't true for a lot of movies aimed at high schoolers, as high school debate as a genre isn't common. also, does anyone know if this is meant to portray policy debate?

Watched and it was good👌

She reminds me so much of Lea from the "good doctor".... Positive vibe and that energy... Yessss and the hair🙂😉

looked this up not knowing it was about debate. was immediately hit with spreading, scrambling to put together the stand, those timers everyone collectively agreed to use for some reason, "is anyone not ready", aggressive hand-waving ... this is going to be wild

excited for the casting, plot looks maybe little generic-ish tough

Finally a movie with an interracial couple! There’s Hardly ever movies like that !

This movie was really sweet to watch. Very enjoyable light hearted film.

Brought a smile on my face, good job

Idk why but i love it so much. It is simple but also such a beautiful movie. I wish i had gone to the movies on my prom night tho

Hey justo ahora

just watched it and it's a movie to watch, so inspiring.

I just saw this movie today. I highly recommend. 👍 just has the right amount of everything and the leads are likeable.

this is a very nice movie

Already excited😁

Three of my favorite actresses star in this movie and why haven't I heard of it until now?

definitely sharing this with my friends in debate 😂

They hate each other, argue, then start to get along. Things are going great - they might go all the way to States and win it all. But then something major happens, and they have a falling out. Until one of the two gets a pep talk from a wiser, older person. Then they apologize to each other and come together to get the trophy, beating all the odds that were against them. PS - I definitely did not watch this movie, but this is 100 percent what happens.

this movie was soooo good I was highkey crushing on lona tho 💗💗💗😂

I love how netflix trailers always summarise the plot

Loved the movie, they need to make a 2nd one!!

YO! This entire movie filmed on my college, OU's campus! People used to call it the " Harry Potter School" now I sure y'all can see why 💖

I liked the scene where she used his notes as her maxi pad and then he lost the debate, but said, "Bloody good tactic!"

“All of them went on to do “stuff”’ lol great words of wisdom

still one of my favorite romance movies- the characters, the music, the shots

I hate the fact im probably going to love this

That dude should be Miles Morales!!

loved this movie! It's a must watch

OMG his mother is crazy eyes! 😂😂😂😂 I can't

I already love this couple.

I wished they could make a sequel.

This looks great! Looks like something new

I love candy jar so much. I don't really like these type of films but I fell in love

I'm glad debate is getting positive representation!

Love it ❤️😍💕 and oh my goodness... That Benette looks good... Not sure I spelled his name right😅

Wow something that I relate on so many levels !

Seeing Crazy Eyes scared me for a second 😂 😂

So basically it's​ about two high school nerds who are in debate team. Yay! can't wait to watch

I’ll watch for Jacob and crazy eyes 😂

This movie was so cute!! I watcged it a few months ago with my family and my mom liked it, too

My favorite movie of all time!

I was hopeing for a some kind of horror movie where a grandma does weird stuff whenever her grandkids took candy without her knowing

I watched this movie on Netflix 36 times. My favorite movie EVER. There should be more movies like this. I think I've seen Lona somewhere else idk tell me please.😘😍❤ Btw the best part is when Bennett doesn't get into Yale so his mom goes crazy.

one of the best movies I ever watched simple but worth to watch

thankyou for the entire movie.

This series is so much similar to the novel today tonight tomorrow by Rachel Lynn Solomon , I love that novel so probably will love this too and tbh the trailer looks really great!

Wow, Crazy Eyes AKA Suzanne is a mom in this?! Ok, do ya thang 😃 👍🏾

Reminds me so much of my debate days in high school

I’m actually pretty hyped for this

I recommend this this is 10/10

Now it's almost hard to imagine crazy eyes as a sane person.

IS THAT CRAZY EYES?!?!? :) LOVE HER!!

more of Lona and Benett plsss 😂😍

Movie or a series? Looks good 👍

"Life after high school is a series of disappoints"

A really good and enjoyable movie, highly recommended

Muy buena película la recomiendo 💕

Looks good.

I literally read a book that was kind of like this! It was called “Dear Martin” by Nic Stone

These two are masters at debating. If they just learned to get along, they could "master debate" together and win.

This movie is awesome; go watch it. Seriously, worth your time.

Wow, I think Netflix is on to. After years of seeing only a few private films like Thumbsucker and the Great Debaters allude to general debate rather than the nuanced trends of policy, it's pretty incredible to see the company writing such a show. They even based the fictional "Association for National Debate" off of the National Speech and Debate Association (similar logos). Needless to say, it looks pretty good

This movie it’s *WAY* better than “the kissing booth” but somehow Netflix didn’t promoted it as much

The music in this was great

Just a thought 💭 : Netflix's movies are so shiny, they look so pretty that you have to watch it (of course the movies are good itself) and they always have new concepts...... I love that
