    • Trivia
      In one of the interviews that are extras on the DVD release, Billie Lourd says that for the scene in which her character, Gigi, dives off the side of a yacht, Lourd was at first quite game to perform the stunt herself. However, the producers told her that it would usually be executed by a professional stunt woman because of the danger involved. When they told Lourd that one of those dangers was that the water she would be diving into was so dirty that she would need to wear a tampon to protect herself from infection, that helped lead Lourd to accede to the idea of using a stunt person. The stunt woman they did bring in for the scene, Heidi Pascoe, was a professional cave-diver.

    • Quotes

      Molly: It's fun your mom thinks we're boning.

      Amy: It isn't you who has to deal with their awkward looks when I say that I'm going to the library with you and I'm actually going to the library with you.

    • Crazy credits

    8/10
    One of the most entertaining and enjoyable pictures of the year
    That was a great time!! A simple high-school adventure comedy that has every element to be considered as one of the best movies of 2019. Seriously, although it feels weird saying it in a review for this one, but the performances are awesome, I mean a young cast with no potential, in my opinion, just got all the potential in the world for the near future, and I am eager to see all of them in future works. It's an 8 not a 9 or 10 because it lacks some seriousness and the ending is so predictable. However, it is fun and hilarious and I enjoyed it so much.
