Comedy. Drama. Romance Avery Hansen-White, who doesn’t do things she isn’t excellent at. So when her long-distance boyfriend hints at wanting to take their relationship to the next level at the upcoming STEM conference (“nerd prom”), she sets out to master her sexuality. In this hilarious teen comedy, Avery begins to study the mechanics of love and realizes that relationships require less science and more heart.

	Author	Review
United States	John Serba Decider	"A reasonably satisfying neo-sex romp that has just enough lighthearted smarts to merit a recommendation."	POS
United States	John Anderson The Wall Street Journal	"Sweetly idiotic would be a kind way of describing 'Sex Appeal'"	NEG
United States	Jennifer Green Common Sense Media	"The actors charmingly convey the irrepressible hormonal energy and excitement of first love (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Aurora Amidon Paste Magazine	"If only the film wasn’t so intent on cramming itself into a small corner of the sex-comedy subgenre, stripping itself of nuance and logic in the process."	NEG
Canada	Ferdosa Abdi Screen Rant	"'Sex Appeal' has good intentions and good instincts, but a lack of nuance torpedoes the whole endeavor (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut	"Funny, sincere, and perversely sweet! (...) [It] will find a cult audience (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
Canada	Josh Bell CBR	"[It] brings nothing new to the well-worn genre (...) The adult performers generate a handful of chuckles, but most of 'Sex Appeal's comedy is weak"	NEG
United States	Ally Ham The Review Geek	"As Larson puts it, 'Love leads to sex, and sex leads to love.' Why the filmmakers push this oversimplified narrative is a mystery."	NEG
