The To Do List

"Writer-director Maggie Carey's feature debut boasts a crack ensemble cast led by Aubrey Plaza that evocatively captures the carefree elation of youthful summer romance" 

"Hits its fair share of outrageously funny highs amid lots of so-so filler, but stays buoyant and likable throughout thanks to the winning presence of 'Parks and Recreation' star Aubrey Plaza in the lead" 

"Does Carey go too far? Duh. But why gripe when you can't stop laughing? (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)" 

"This movie is smarter and better acted and just plain funnier than most of its predecessors in the my-first-time genre" 

"'The To Do List' has its enjoyable moments but doesn't exactly feel like a peak experience (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of four)" 

"This is a welcome female-centric variation on a familiar theme, not the first to deal with a teenage girl's de-virginization project, but certainly a minority report in a field crowded with boys trying to Get Some (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of four)" 

"A summer-adventure comedy, and its tone is fairly synthetic, yet it gets major props for giving us the first movie heroine who is clueless and easy in such a hardcore way" 

"Maybe someday there will be a better commercial comedy about a girl taking charge of her sexual education, but for now, this is the only one we’ve got, and it’s a filthy-fun charmer (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of five)"
