PRO REVIEWS ----------------------------------------
"Writer-director Maggie Carey's feature debut boasts a crack ensemble cast led by Aubrey Plaza that evocatively captures the carefree elation of youthful summer romance" (Justin Lowe: The Hollywood Reporter)
----------------------------------------
"Hits its fair share of outrageously funny highs amid lots of so-so filler, but stays buoyant and likable throughout thanks to the winning presence of 'Parks and Recreation' star Aubrey Plaza in the lead" (Scott Foundas: Variety)
----------------------------------------
"Does Carey go too far? Duh. But why gripe when you can't stop laughing? (...) Rating: *** (out of four)" (Peter Travers: Rolling Stone)
----------------------------------------
"This movie is smarter and better acted and just plain funnier than most of its predecessors in the my-first-time genre" (Neil Genzlinger: The New York Times)
----------------------------------------
"'The To Do List' has its enjoyable moments but doesn't exactly feel like a peak experience (...) Rating: **1/2 (out of four)" (Claudia Puig: USA Today)
----------------------------------------
"This is a welcome female-centric variation on a familiar theme, not the first to deal with a teenage girl's de-virginization project, but certainly a minority report in a field crowded with boys trying to Get Some (...) Rating: **1/2 (out of four)" (Michael Phillips: Chicago Tribune)
----------------------------------------
"A summer-adventure comedy, and its tone is fairly synthetic, yet it gets major props for giving us the first movie heroine who is clueless and easy in such a hardcore way" (Owen Gleiberman: Entertainment Weekly)
----------------------------------------
"Maybe someday there will be a better commercial comedy about a girl taking charge of her sexual education, but for now, this is the only one we’ve got, and it’s a filthy-fun charmer (...) Rating: ***1/2 (out of five)" (Kimberley Jones: Austin Chronicle)
