Pros and Cons

Pros:
-Nice Storyline
-Great Acting
-Tear Jerker

Cons:
-Overlooks mental illnesses and Abuse
-Some areas were rushed
-Left me wanting more (i wasn't satisfied where it left off)

To expound on the cons:

This series did a terrible job at shining a light on how mental illness affects people.. especially teenagers. It made it seem like all Umine had to do is accept the fact that she was 'unconventionally attractive' so that people would treat her better.

This series also overlook Umine being physically and verbally abused by her mother which was a major factor as to why she is the way she is currently. I wish this series had focused a tad more on Umine's life as opposed to them just trying to prove that by ignoring all the bad things in life and just accepting it you would be better off.

IDK

200 Pound Beauty was amazing but not what I expected. Like others, I really did enjoy this drama. But, like many others, I had a lot of criticsm. 200 Pound Beauty promotes such a negative message especially to younger girls that may be experiencing these same feelings Hanna had. This entire "Get Surgery, be skinny and pretty and no fat and ugly" is such a bad thing to promote. Don't get me wrong, getting surgery for YOU is completely different from getting surgery to solely fit into what society deems as acceptable. I would not be having this criticism if Hanna got surgery for HER and not in order to fit into a standard and to get a guy to like her (a guy who obviously liked her before she had the surgery). However, I did enjoy how this drama shed light on the rampant fatphobia that is prevalent within most societies and how simple 'teasing; could cause someone to hate themselves to the point they would want to undergo such drastic changes.

Hmm

This is the kind of movie/plot that would make you say "hmmm, I think I read this before" but in actuality you haven't watched this particular movie but you'd watched hundreds of movies with the same plot. It's the typical jerk falls for school girl.
Besides it being comedic it wasn't that much of an enjoyable watch. No one can convince me that the main characters actually fell in love. Everything seemed forced and fast paced.

I would 100% recommend watching it and forming your own opinions on this but this is mine.

COULD'VE BEEN GREAT

I would like to start off by saying I completely enjoyed this. The story is amazing and not once did I take my eyes off the screen. It's intriguing to the point you even forget it's 2hrs long. Like the headline says it could've been great. Before reaching the end I had already awarded this a 10/10 read..but of course, they had to sprinkle a bit of fatphobia that added NOTHING to the original plot. It definitely wasn't needed and it would've been perfect without it. Did I enjoy watching it? Yes. Would I rewatch it? Probably not.

AMAZING

I decided to watch '18 Again' because I'm a huge fan of '17 Again'. Needless to say, this is more enjoyable than 17 Again. I loved everything about this. I love how they incorporated different things to make it even more enjoyable but not once allowing the viewers to get sidetracked. The acting was amazing (probably a few cringy moments here and there but every movie has that so I can forgive those). The OST was great.. i found myself getting emotional every time I heard it. i found it to be very beautiful and very fitting.
If you haven't decided whether or not to give this a try this is your sign. DO IT.
