If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

A high school senior instigates a social pecking order revolution after finding out that she has been labeled the DUFF - Designated Ugly Fat Friend - by her prettier, more popular counterparts. To be honest i didn't know what to expect from The Duff to be perfectly honest cause it started kind of meh at the beginning but as it went on it actually improved a little bit and basically wasn't that bad of a movie experience in general. The acting was alright, the storyline was ok and as a whole the movie was pretty decent with some good laughs and basically a good romantic film from that time but if you were expecting for something more you'll be very very disappointed with 'The Duff'. (7/10)

I enjoy watching teen movies to see what the young generation is up to. This movie gives the modern sensibility on final year high school students wading through the confusing labyrinth of romance and dating mingled with the vicissitudes of friendship. All with the absence of any help from adults, who generally are causing more stress than they are helping out. Feel good entertainment even if there is a little too much voice-over needed to explain what Bianca is going through.

I am a DUFF. I have always wanted to know my role in my group of friends, and now I have a term for it.This is a cute movie, and I can tell that this is one of those movies that I will watch every time it is on Freeform, FX or USA. It has a great cast with a lot of chemistry. Mae Whitman is an amazing actress, and Robbie Amell has charm for days and days. This will become a cult teen classic just like 10 Things I Like About You, Pretty In Pink and She's All That.With all that being said, this movie follows the classic teen formula so don't expect any surprises. Mean Girls and Easy A are a lot smarter than this flick. Also, Bella Thorne is a great actress and she does great with her role in this movie. Bullying is real, but people don't act like her in real life at that age. Every time her character came on screen, I cringed. I don't like to feel uncomfortable watching films like this. The thing that makes it worse is that this character isn't part of original book. I would have rather used that screen time for the main character's relationship with her friends.Still, this is a good film. I will add this to my Saturday afternoon ritual when it starts playing on cable.

No doubt the plot was more or less the same story of a not hot girl (a DUFF in 2015) try to change herself then lose her friend but finally discover that this isn't herself and end up with the guy who she did not target in the first place. You can figure all this out from the first 5 minutes of the movie.However, the real charm and entertaining is within the 2 main character Bianca and Wesly (the only two character that actually have a role). Bianca was awkwardly funny and smart while Wesly was cheeky, idiot and cutest. Together they are amusing, charming, and realistic probably one of the best couple in my list right now. I think what really attract people to the movies was the insider that it is damn true about a DUFF (apparently I am one). It is another entertaining teen flick movie but just don't expect anything new from it then you will ended the movie with pleasure and a little blush.
