KISSING BOOTH 3 is the Mess No One Needed | Explained 

My honest thoughts are that Noah and Chloe SHOULD get together because they're too good for everyone.

The fact that elle was accepted to both prestigious universities is just offensive.

I can't believe they needed 3 movies to make sure everyone knows that Elle is a immature teenager who can't stand up for herself and keeps pushing everything until it just explodes and hurts everyone. ONE HOUR WITH A THERAPIST COULD HAVE TOLD HER THAT!

it BAFFLES me how these characters just get into these prestigious colleges. WTF.

Amanda forgetting Marco even existed only to immediately remember Chloe’s name and still love her is so on brand lol

The ONLY thing that "Kissing Booth" does right over "To All the Boys" is having Elle and Noah break up before she goes to college. Your high school boyfriend or girlfriend isn't always "The One", so it was more realistic than Peter and Lara Jean's "We're not like the other couples."

"You've always had everything you wanted handed to you" Says the girl who has had no real struggles, lives in a big house in California, was accepted into 2 prestigious universities and is going to Harvard even though she showed no academic abilities

So many things about these movies are unrealistic and absurd. But I think one of the most absurd things is these character casually getting into places like Harvard or UC Berkeley. Like when have we seen these character actually do school work, extra curriculars, or have jobs??

Lee and Elle should get together and be annoying til the end of time and leave everyone else alone.

Anybody else weirded out by the fact that Elle is so upset about Noah cheating on her, yet she cheats on him in front of possibly millions of people

Hallelujah! Someone gets it! We didn't need a 3rd movie let alone an entire trilogy, screw abusive shit being cute. Let us have wholesome stuff.

The fact that this garbage of a storyline gets three movies and good shows like Anne with an E and The Society (and many others) get cancelled 😫

I was so fucking relieved when Mrs Flynn FINALLY said to Elle what she should have learned in the first movie: maybe you shouldn't make life altering decisions based on what other people want from you. I thought they were going to be bold and actually end the movie with them broken up, but this reconnecting thing was fine enough, it's ok. The ending was not as bad as I thought it would be, but we can confirm this universe has NEVER experienced corona, cause there's no scenario I can see where we can let shit like kissing booths happen ever again. Also I kind of hated Noah in the first movie, but I gotta admit he is the one who grew the most throughout these movies - he went from abusive violent jerk to regular annoying boy. Rachel gets a lot of shit for being very bland but I think she was also one of the best characters, she kissed Lee in the first movie despite everyone mocking him, stuck out in a relationship she was never valued a lot and when she felt it was time to end it, she went and did it with no drama. And Chloe is just like, chef's kiss, I have no complaints. I was just confused when she said she is 23, I thought she was 18/19 like Noah and Elle.

I know a lot of people didn’t like Noah but he was the only one who actually learned anything before the end of the trilogy. Probably because Chloe is his friend and the best character. Elle and Lee just kept having the same drama over and over again.

If this is the summer before college, shouldn’t Elle have accepted the college’s offer back in the winter? You can’t decide what college you’re going to the summer before college, that’s not how this works

So basically my way of describing the trilogy... Kissing Booth: Abusive Kissing Booth 2: Toxic Kissing Booth 3: Predictable It’s pretty hilarious to be honest 🤣

The fact that gets to me in these movies is that these characters get into these prestigious or well know colleges/universities that are difficult to get into when we have seen them not do the work to get into them. The only character that I can get getting into one is like Gabriella from HSM. When Noah got into Harvard in the first movie I was making sure I heard right. Cause the amount of school violence that is literally apart of his character should be enough to not even really look at his application.

I love that everyone is in agreement that these characters are too incompetent to realistically be accepted to multiple Ivy League universities

God, I hate how Wattpad has been known as the site that produces trashy teenage romance. God, I remember when the site had good stories that weren’t romances. I remember reading wonderful fantasy adventures and gripping zombie survival. Like, shit, why couldn’t those have gotten adaptations instead?

"Lee and Rachel break up" me : yes! at least there is ONE good thing i could say about this trash movie "They get back together" Rip Rachel's sanity And who would say Noah would be the only character with SOME develoment.

The way you described his running? That’s literally what happened to my brother! He shot up in stature suddenly and now runs like he doesn’t know how to use his limbs, it’s seriously the funniest thing to see

Marco pulled a Jacob, where in the previous movie he actually seemed like the better choice and is nice and king and caring, but in the next movie he turns full nice guy that keeps fucking chasing the girl after being pushed away several times.

the most unrealistic thing about all of this is that lee and elle are best friends and meet more than once every few weeks

The most unrealistic thing about this entire movie is that decision day for college/university is MAY 1ST meaning that the main conflict of this movie is entirely null

They had Lee become friends with a guy who was his clone and going to Berkeley as well. I thought that would be the conflict , where Lee is pulling away and Elle is being clingy for a change. Then Lee could have an aha moment about his own selfishness and clingy ness.

“...that was my cat” nobody wants any more of this Kissing Booth movies but we need more of your cat please.

"Bypass this movie and watch Booksmart instead." Life advice with Amanda Part 3

These movies where impossibly dense people get into impossibly difficult schools are so incredibly laughable. And no one in these films acts even remotely like a real human. I think this shit is even worse than some of the bad '80s and '90s teen films with which I grew up.

I'm surprised Marco wasn't fired for organizing Elle's Mario Kart challenge. I seriously doubt the owners would be happy that a bunch of kids wanted to recreate a video game that involved crashing into each other and throwing dangerous objects in the race, while causing a lot of damage to their go-carts and the track itself.

This entire series: Lee has attachment issues and is insufferable.

Man Noah actaully turned out to be the cool guy and Ella became the emotionally immature and stupid asshole by the end of the trilogy. It's literally Twighlight except Bella and Edward swap roles by the end.

And so begins the incredible commentaries about the movie series I refuse to watch myself LMFAOOOO

"So we all knew this one was coming" I'm gonna be honest this movie was a complete afterthought in my personal mental rolodex

Got the vibe from the first movie and the sequels that Lee is secretly in love with Elle but the movies didn't want that so they gave him Rachel as an obligatory love interest so they could try to redirect his romantic feelings away from Elle.

You can almost see the pain in Joey & Jacobs eyes. Jacob was amazing in Euphoria, & Joey was brilliant in The Act. Give👏🏻Them👏🏻Better👏🏻Acting👏🏻Roles👏🏻

"...That was my cat." Idk why the delivery of that line is so funny to me but it sure is Cheers

I screamed when Marco told Elle that only one thing would have held him back from leaving L.A (besides his family) it's been less than a year since he knew her

I can’t believe they made three movies based off the same conflict. How did it take Elle this long to learn how to make decisions for herself?

It would have been nice if Elle had ditched Berkeley and Harvard to go to a trade school. Netflix is single-handedly pressuring youth into going to get fancy and expensive university educations. Would have at least been a nice change to see another pathway to success offered.

The second half of this movie is just characters having conversations. I had to force myself to finish it because I watched the first two and I have a hard time quitting things apparently

Growing up is realizing Noah isn’t that toxic and that Elle is really disrespectful to him AND Lee

“Imagine going from wanting to move in together to breaking up in under a month” *flashbacks to my ex* 🙃

The world has no need for 1 kissing booth movie muchless 3

You have officially convinced me that I never need to see these movies.

Is anyone gonna talk about how at 2:25 the article says “Wales, England”, not “Wales, United Kingdom” or “Wales, Great Britain”? I mean 🤦🏼‍♀️

The biggest question is what even is the geography surrounding the Flynn house. A street that seems to be just trees on one side, another overlooks a giant empty field that has no view of the tree street or their neighbors

Oh now wait a dang second I just realized Lee painted over their height lines only for Molly Ringwald to not sell the house 😂

I don't understand how noah and Marco are so obsessed with Elle when her personality is nonexistent lmao when she's not completely boring, she's just an immature hypocrite, I seriously don't think there is anything likeable about her, she's a bad friend and girlfriend and she has no empathy, yet they suddenly shove the whole "my mom died" down our throats, trying to make us feel bad for her

the tagline of this read "end of an era" and i used to think twilight was giving itself way more importance with those end credits of breaking dawn part 2 . The director needs to realise this aint Lord of the rings or culmination of some epic saga its a teen rom com trilogy.

KB Elle: I got into Harvard! Legally Blonde Elle: What, like it's hard? This was like the 4th season of 13 Reasons...waaay too much crammed in, except things here were resolved. I still lost brain cells watching.

Major plot hole : by graduation she would have picked her college already because if the deadlines

This is getting out of hand. Now there are 3 of them!

Elle reminds me SO MUCH of when someone writes a self insert Mary Sue character and doesn't realize that they aren't endearing and quirky, they're just bad. Also wtf were they thinking with Elle's bad wig in the last scene? Yes, go for the short hair, but that was not an "I'm 24 and living my best life" look. That was a "I cut my own hair after drunkenly watching a Brad Mondo video at 2am" look.

the fact that the one good advice comes from Lee and it's about trash bags is too funny for me 🤣

And to think that they cancelled I am not okay with this for these movies...

Honestly Lee inviting that male friend everywhere with Elle is a callback to him being Elle everywhere with his gf. Always obliviously making someone a third wheel

Okay. I couldn’t figure out what it was, but even though teen dramas do sensationalize the American teenage experience it still resembles American high schools depending on the locations (small town, LA suburbs, NYC all have different experiences). But for some reason, this always felt so off to me about this series. It didn’t feel like a high school in California (or the US) at all, and finding out the author is Welsh makes so much sense. Lol why not just set it in the UK? That also explains why in the last movie they had thanksgiving dinner at like 1 pm and half-assed the spill all the drama during thanksgiving trope

The only charachter development in this franchise was of noah everyone else literally went in a downward spiral

Two things my parents taught me when I moved into my first appartment alone: always chose good quality trash bags and toilet paper. That is a lesson worth learning and I'm glad they included it in this movie!

Can't wait for Kissing Booth 4: Fuck It We More Money

Elle is such an unlikeable protagonist, it's almost astounding.

As a single dad the thought of not telling the new partner what's up with the piece before we even sat down for the game is really not sittin right with me

Honestly, I no longer watch anything on Netflix without consulting you first. Thank you for your community service Amanda. 😄

The only reason I watched the movie was because some of it was shot down the road from me and I played a game guessing where in South Africa (Cape Town/ Durban) the different scenes were shot location wise.

Seriously, the only good thing about Netflix making more of these movies is that we get to hear more hot takes from awesome channels like yours!

Very good points but what does Amanda’s cat think? We need an in depth analysis from him/her. 🐈

So it has a cut to six years later and.... Noah should have shown up married or engaged to Chloe, as I still think they made more sense and kind of worked better.

Like can we have movies about Cloe? She’s the main character.

Anyone else bothered by the screenshot from the Hollywood reporter claiming the author lived in “Wales, England” ….. they are two separate countries!! Journalism really is dead!

Not Amanda being early for a movie review! We love to see it!

Marco looks like he smells good, I'd hug him too

It looks like they were trying to make them look 35 but they would’ve only been 24, 25 years old. I’m about to turn 24 and I definitely don’t dress in business attire for casual events just because I’m an adult…

When you were describing the main conflict for the movie, I literally thought "Isn't this the plot for 'To all The Boys 3'?" And yes, Ive seen To all the Boys 3

The only shred of credit I will give this movie is that the couples all chose to hit pause on their relationships for the sake of figuring themselves out before continuing. Something you don’t often see in teen romcoms. So like, ten points for that. Minus fifty for everything else.

The fact that this was made by a 15 year old on wattpad explains a lot. If she can improve and no longer be seen as the author of the KB books then great for her. Shes 15 so she can improve. In the same breath it makes me wonder what I'm doing wrong in life...

* picks up phone call from Harvard admissions * "Hello Elle, we've been trying to reach you about your car's extended warranty....."

I wish these sorts of movies targeted at teens didn't constantly set such unrealistic bars with things like getting into ridiculously good colleges and just deciding on a whim to get into a career like video game design/development just because you enjoy playing video games. While I know they're not really going for realism, they can't even bother to get their concepts straight. "Going pro" as a professional gamer is an ENTIRELY different thing than getting into a career as a game designer/developer, and just deciding to do the latter on a whim based on enjoying playing video games is the equivalent of deciding to be a doctor because you think talking to patients about symptoms and handing out medication seems like it would be fun. Feels like setting up a bunch of kids for disappointment at the very least, failure at worst.

Noah asking her to move in...her first year was a little ick to me. I totally agree that she should have the dorm experience and Noah should live with his friends & Elle visit. That's what happened my senior year. My friends and I lived together and their boyfriends visited. It was better that way. We all had fun and maintained boundaries

I am just here being amazed that we went from "the main love interest is so abusive and a controlling asshole" to "no one is good enough for the main love interest". Like, maybe just the fact that they have been away for so long is the only thing keeping him in check and he will get back to his asshole ways as soon they lived together... or they completely forgot the characterization they gave him on the first movie. I wouldn't be surprised at all.

Oh lord the Mortal Instruments...gave me flashbacks lmao

Life advices with amanda are just the best

Yessss!!!! When I saw it announced, I knew it was just a matter of time until Amanda suffered through the movie for us once again. And here it is! As always, a thanks from your humble viewers.

Random fact: Lee's Berkeley friend was a contestant on the very first Bachelorette South Africa.

Dear God. Well, if I'm going to have any Navigator through this fresh hell, Amanda is a welcome choice.

I wonder if the people that makes these movies, have they ever heard of the kissing disease or the kissing bug.

Kissing booth 3 exist Jack : " welcome welcome to Hell's outhouse ! " - Mask of Zorro three-finger Jack

i have never been here in the commentary community for the post netflix movie video dump when the movie came out yesterday and i am here for all the videos about it

I can't believe that for all this series weird, problematic shit it's one of the very few teen romance movies/books that starts with a super aggro alpha male romance lead who actually grows and unlearns a lot of his toxic behavior. I know it's not perfect but I'm honestly pleasantly surprised at Noah's legit character growth. Also, absolutely fucking good for the author. Her stuff isn't for me but I hope she keeps up momentum and gets a chance to grow as a writer. There are some nuggets of promising stuff in here, and if nothing else I hope she gets to keep doing what she (hopefully) enjoys

I got into several prestigious schools. For most of them, I got the admission letter, a call, and a follow up letter. That's it.

There’s one part where she says “while everyone was coming at me from all sides,” and I literally had to pause the movie and walk away for a moment. GIRL YOU ARE THE CAUSE OF YOUR PROBLEMS.

Moved 4 times in 12 months. I feel your pain. I’m about to rent a storage unit so I don’t have to lug my shit around. And for sleeping.

Did the Hollywood reporter seriously write “in her childhood home Wales, England” holy shit

Amanda, we still need a Team Everybody goes to therapy shirt 😂

I started watching this yesterday but figured I could put it off and just wait for you to post this video, thanks Amanda, you're doing the lord's work.

This is the most tolerable one because Noah has such a decent and redemptive arc.

did anyone else stop dead in their tracks and flinch when they read "her childhood home in Wales, England" at 2:24?

The funniest and bizarre part about the whole movie was when there was six years leap and they met at the very end of the beginning of all of this mess *kissing booth* and elle narrated that she met noah six years later...like dude, in all these six years you were in california and the flynn's where pretty much living there too, it's not like their children never visited them during holidays💀 Also, I think tkb2 & 3 were unnecessary, this was beyond exaggeration of fantasy-land, that's why i ship lara-jean and peter, and pretty much that movie managed to be less worse than this💀💀no wonder jacob elordi never promoted the last two movies, but always up for the interviews🤣

I hope that Marco finds "the one" for him. He deserves to be happy too.

Your videos have showed up in my recommended for years now and I don’t know why I’ve never given them a try. You’ve earned a new subscriber today. You go through videos and discuss them exactly the way I do. I love your energy as you describe the plot. You remind me a lot of myself, haha! Keep up the good work

Thank you for going through this for us Amanda, your sacrifice is very much appreciated
