  • WHAT I LIKED: For a movie to just while away a couple of hours to, you could do much worse than 'The Duff.' Yes there's just enough fun humour, character development and good acting to keep you in your seat that generally amounts to a fairly enjoyable rom-com that carries a slight whiff of serious theme and relationship development to keep you sniffing.
    WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE: It really isn’t the most exciting, funny or interesting film out there by any stretch of the imagination. For one its plot is unbelievably one-dimensional and cliched, and the ending is truly horrible - but luckily these are all things which won't really affect you if you don't get too into it. I certainly didn't.
    VERDICT: You can have a bit of fun with this movie, but you'll forget about it as soon as you've seen it. Basically then, 'The Duff' is a thoroughly average teen flick with nothing particularly exciting to offer. Another.
