Blockers is funny and both the trailer and the name is stupid. Sooo many good things:
  • Teenagers, boys and girls, who are in control of their sexuality, who come to terms with their sexuality and figure it out on their own.
  • Boys who are respectful of their partners' wishes, whether they say no, or yes, or they change their mind.
  • Boys who know how to go down on their partners. (This may set up some unrealistic expectations for teenage girls, but I'll take it.)
  • Parents who are open with their kids about sex and choices.
  • Non-romantic female/male friendships!
  • An interracial family with interracial children where the minority parent speaks perfect English and basically seems like she grew up and was born here, which she probably did.
  • The kids are sooo funny, and honestly they may be more talented than the older, more experienced actors.
  • This is more of a warning: there's a butt-chugging scene.
I have to say, though, watching this as the parent of someone who's going to be a teenager in a few years, (even though I enjoyed it) was fucking weird, and also terrifying.
