Movie Review — To All The Boys: Always and Forever (2021)
After To All The Boys I’ve Loved last 2 seasons were a success, the following last season was out right before valentine’s day on February 12, 2021. In the last season, Lara Jean (Lana Condor) and Peter Kavinsky (Noah Centino) break up due to misunderstandings even though, they both still have feelings for each other. The viewers are worried whether these love birds would end up together or break up again.
Well, you’ll find out the answer when you watched the movie and in the following paragraphs. Spoiler Alert!
***
Lara Jean’s love story with her boyfie, Peter Kavinsky continues until their senior year. It is normal that teenagers are feeling anxious, doubtful, and uncertain to decide what are they going to do after graduate? Senior year is a crisis year for the students both physically and mentally. This is what LJ dan Peter face.
So, what will Lara Jean and Peter Kavinsky do about their future? Will they stay together even if they go to different Colleges? or Will they both go to the same school and remain together?
Looking at LJ’s character in this season, I thought she has changed. She becomes more brave and certain about the decision that she made. Although at the beginning of the movie LJ seems to always be worried about her relationship with Kavinsky, didn’t know what she wanted to be, and is paranoid over everything. There is definitely drastic character development within LJ.
In the end, LJ can figure out what she wanted to be and to do in her life. In this case, the value that we can learn is, having a relationship doesn’t mean that you have to follow wherever your other half doing. Otherwise, you have to be able to enjoy your own life and have a purpose on your own. Being in love means you got each other back and support what your partner does. As long as what they do is positive.
Peter and LJ seem to break up in the middle of the last season. It is because of a miscommunication. LJ lied to Peter about going to Stanford with him and was afraid to explain her plan will affect their relationship. But this made Peter disappointed.
However, they both learn a valuable life lesson. In every relationship, we have to possess great communication skills, open up to each other, and compromise. We have to ensure that in a relationship both parties are happy.
In addition, I love to see LJ’s friendship with Gen (Peter’s ex) is getting better. Where in the last two seasons I hated her very much, for always interrupting LJ and Peter’s relationship. In fact, they even become good friends. Gen was practically helped LJ to convinced her to study at NYU.
Generally, I am extremely content and relieved that the last season is fulfilling my hope. All the problems between the characters have been solved and everyone is happy.
