All About Sex (2020)

All About Sex has that rare, bracing confidence to talk about friendship, work, love, and sex the way people in their mid-20s actually do: with too much honesty, not enough certainty, and a lot of laughter in the wreckage. Dakota Gorman keeps the vibe bright and conversational, letting Natalee Linez, Emma Deckers, and Gorman bounce off each other with the kind of ensemble chemistry that makes you feel like you’ve been invited into a real, messy friendship. It’s funny without turning its characters into punchlines, and tender without pretending “adulting” comes with a map—just a series of awkward detours and small, hard-won realizations. If you prefer romances that are glossy or comedies that stay safely superficial, this might feel a little too frank, but if you want something lively and relatable, it’s an easy yes.

All About Sex is clearly aiming for a candid, modern hangout dramedy about quarter-life panic, friendship, and the awkward trial-and-error of “adulting,” and you can feel the sincerity behind it. The problem is it often plays like a string of loosely connected episodes, so just when a moment starts to land emotionally, the movie drifts to the next beat and the momentum slips. The tone can wobble between heartfelt and sitcom-broad, which may leave you unsure whether to laugh, cringe, or care. If you’re tired of familiar indie coming-of-age rhythms and want a tighter, sharper story, this probably won’t hit; if you’re fine with a casual, messy vibe and enjoy spending time with flawed twenty-somethings, it has some relatable, occasionally funny flashes.
