RATED 8/10 Language: English RECOMMENDED Decent adult exploring drama presented in feel good romantic way... Its sex comedy kind of education.... Worth the watch.

I pulled this from Rotten Tomatoes because I agree... When the edgiest thing about your teen sex comedy is the title, the best you can offer in praise is "that's a nice first effort." December 16, 2020.

This movie doesn't have that much dept, but it does write in quite a few smaller twists with them, giving true depth to the superficial lead which still feels superficial as the dark isn't that dark and the light isn't really that light. What it does hit is that feel good tone that "itll be allright". The cinematography is decent enough, sound and music ok, the cast is well above anticipated even though the dialogue is stiff it leans into it which adds to the movie rather than detract. It's very ungraphical for the subject and more in respects to the inner hesitations about maturing. For a low budget movie this is high production values and possibly perfect for girls growing up to feel normal as they do so. Note, this is in no way an educational movie about the more graphical parts of sex or having an active sexlife but the emotions for a akward, high achieving girl deciding to have sex. Possibly slightly on the autistic spectrum.

Decently acted and writtten movie about nerdy girl learning how to interact with others, losing her virginity, and finding a boyfriend. Not really a comedy, but not too serious either. Better than I was expecting.

So often in coming of age rom-coms, we get the male perspective. I loved a female point of view for a change. Especially that of a young woman who takes charge of her own sexual path. Funny, charming, well done. This film was just an all around treat!

It´s a very bold and cool feature debut for Allison Powell. Well done for an actor, writer, producer and a director. A funny romantic comedy for the younger generation. The story is about Lanie Burroughs, a young women who has found the guy she want´s to loose her virginity to. Hence resulting in a lot of awkward moments as she and the story develops. I recommend this movie to young directors as well as people that are into the genre.

Maybe im old n old fashioned guy , but this movie about a VIRGIN teen girl attended sex education and then suddenly wanna explore about it by her own methods or way. The she get helps from homo friends, and then have crush on some another kid from collage. and start having dates , until to the end. even the end is stupid . --------------------spoilers------------------- a single mom tells young teen daughter to go out have FUN (sex) with a guy ? what kinda parenting is that? and then in the end , her bf got hurt n break up . and she didnt even fight for love or watever she feeling and then she start to have feeling for another boy ? .. no wonder the divorce rate is getting high in that stupid country.

Bangie Lanie is a charming indie rom-com. Honestly the title made me chuckle so I gave it a watch. The film reminds of Booksmart, which I loved, and I think others who liked it will also enjoy Banging Lanie. The film's lead actress, who I believe is also the director, gave a very good performance as an awkward teen trying to navigate her sexuality. These types of coming of age movies have always been a personal favorite of mine and I love seeing more of them told from a young woman's perspective.
