All spoilers for the first film are unmarkedA 2020 teen romantic dramedy film, based on the novel The Kissing Booth 2: Going the Distance by Beth Reekles. It is a sequel to The Kissing Booth. The film was directed by Vince Marcello, and the screenplay was written by Marcello and Jay Arnold.Following the events of the first film, Elle Evans (Joey King) and Lee Flynn (Joel Courtney) have begun their senior year at high school. Elle's romance with Lee's older brother, Noah (Jacob Elordi) is challenged by the fact he's far away attending Harvard University. To make matters worse, Elle sees social media posts suggesting he's growing close to a girl he met at Harvard (Maisie Richardson-Sellers). Further complicating things, Elle finds herself drawn to Marco (Taylor Zakhar Perez), a charming new boy at her school. Is this the end of Elle and Noah's relationship, or will their love prevail?Shortly after the film's release, it was announced that a third film, The Kissing Booth 3, had been filmed concurrently and would be released in 2021. | |

Workout Fanservice: A girl shows Elle a video of Marco working out, including close-ups of his muscled chest. She begins talking at length about his attractiveness, not realizing she's broadcasting this to the entire school. Noah is seen working out at a gym when Elle calls him at one time. | |

Mistaken for Cheating: Elle believes that Noah may have slept with Chloe, especially when she finds one of her earrings under Noah's bed, but he insists he hasn't cheated. Chloe later confirms that nothing happened between them; she spent the night in Noah's room while he was out and accidentally left her earring behind. | |

Later, after Lee and Rachel break up, she suggests that the latter gives him a second chance. In both cases, they do. In the ending, Chloe is one for Elle and Noah, after the three have cleared up their misunderstanding. | |

Third Wheel: Elle becomes this for Lee and Rachel, constantly spending time with them because Noah is away at university. In this scenario, it actually makes things awkward for Rachel, because Lee tends to prioritize Elle while inadvertently neglecting his girlfriend and Elle is initially oblivious to the fact Rachel wants to spend time with Lee without her. | |

Long-Distance Relationship: The main source of conflict this time around is that Noah is on the other side of the country from Elle, attending Harvard University in Massachusetts, while she's finishing high school in California. They rarely get to see each other, which puts a lot of strain on their relationship. | |

Dinner and a Show: A really awkward Thanksgiving dinner at Flynn's house forms the climax, with the tension between Elle, Noah, Lee and Rachel boiling over at the dinner table; Noah recently saw Elle kissing Marco, Elle thinks Noah cheated with Chloe (who he invited to Thanksgiving), Lee has found out Elle applied to a different university without telling him, and Rachel is mad at both Lee and Elle for excluding her. | |

Pac-Man Fever | |
The Kissing Booth 2 / int_38d3a0f7 | comment |
Pac Man Fever: Elle is briefly shown playing a beat-em-up in a way that suggests it has motion controls (moving around while holding the controller in order to make her character move). Not only were motion controls a largely outdated feature in 2020, but beat-em-ups are particularly ill-suited to them, since gameplay generally involves precise button combos and not replicating actual movement. | |

The Kissing Booth 2 / int_3b113b7 | comment |
Character Development: Between the events of the first movie and this movie, Noah has mellowed out a lot. He has much better control of his temper, even resisting attacking someone who is actively goading him (whereas before he would beat up people with minimal provocation). And while he once had a reputation as The Casanova, he remains faithful to Elle despite the difficulty of their relationship. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
The Kissing Booth 2 / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Heavier on the sweet, but still. Elle and Noah reconcile, as do Lee and Rachel. Elle and Lee's friendship is salvaged after their own brief falling-out, and Lee gets accepted into Berkeley. On the lower side, Marco is shown to still have feelings for Elle and is implied to be intent on winning her back, and Elle lies to Noah and Lee about being waitlisted from Berkeley and Harvard when she was actually accepted into both schools—a lie that is sure to have consequences and a decision that might cause more friction between the trio. | |

Plot-Mandated Friendship Failure: In the third act, Elle nearly burns bridges with almost everyone; Rachel is mad at her for getting in the way between her relationship with Lee, Lee is mad at her for lying about her college application, Noah is mad at her for kissing Marco, and Marco is disappointed that Elle is quick to brush off their kiss as something impulsive. | |

Adaptation Distillation: In the book, Elle breaks up with Noah after she overhears him talking with Amanda about her early on and spends most of the book single. In the film, their breakup happens in the third act after Noah spots Elle kissing Marco, and doesn't last as long. Noah's closeness with his new female friend at Harvard (Amanda in the book, Chloe in the film) is simply because he wanted to have a close friend of the opposite sex like Elle does with Lee. In the book, it's both because he wanted a close friend and Amanda helped him with his grades at college. | |

Sequel Hook: The film ends with Elle discovering she's been accepted into both Harvard, where Noah is studying, and Berkeley, where Lee will be studying, and it's unclear which one she will choose. It's also made clear that Marco still has romantic feelings for Elle despite her rejection and isn't ready to give up on her yet. | |

Ivy League for Everyone | |
The Kissing Booth 2 / int_6b3c357e | comment |
Ivy League for Everyone: Downplayed. At the end, Elle gets accepted into Harvard, one of the most prestigious universities in the world. It's offhandedly mentioned early in the film that she has great scores and takes part in two extracurricular clubs (soccer and dance club), but her only other notable activities are setting up the kissing booth and being a small-time video game streamer with a couple of dozen followers. Elle's university interview paper mostly consists of praising her family and friends while downplaying her own achievements. Ironically, despite the cost being Elle's greatest barrier to attending Harvard, in real life, it would have been the least of her problems, as the Evanses are middle class and would be granted a hefty amount of aid from the Harvard endowment (in fact, she would probably have to pay less in Harvard than she would at UC Berkeley). | |

Adaptational Angst Upgrade | |
The Kissing Booth 2 / int_730d3664 | comment |
Adaptational Angst Upgrade: Rachel's irritation at Elle being the third wheel in her relationship with Lee is a major plot point in the film. In the book, this is only present in a single chapter, as Rachel becomes more sympathetic at Elle's plight after she broke up with Noah and helped her care for a severely drunk Lee. Neither happens in the film, so the process is drawn out longer. The dilemma Elle faces at the end when she is accepted at both UC Berkeley and Harvard is not present in the book, where she only applies at UC Berkeley and is accepted alongside Lee. Marco's determination to snatch Elle from Noah at the end is also a film addition. Inverted with Elle's rift with Lee. In the book, the two drift apart after Lee enters the football club and starts prioritizing his relationship with Rachel over Elle. These don't happen in the film (in fact, Lee pointedly always chooses Elle over Rachel, which is the reason for the aforementioned angst upgrade with Rachel), though the two do have a brief falling out when Lee discovers that Elle is applying at Harvard. | |

The Kissing Booth 2 / int_c335b9ec | comment |
Irony: Elle spends a lot of the film worrying that Noah will cheat on her, especially given his past reputation with girls. Noah and Chloe really are just friends, while Elle ends up being unfaithful to Noah by impulsively kissing Marco. Lee, meanwhile, spends much of the movie in a Friend Versus Lover situation regarding Elle and Rachel, similar to the position he put Elle in during the first movie. It's ultimately lampshaded by Elle herself. | |

Aesop Amnesia | |
The Kissing Booth 2 / int_c435ec5d | comment |
Aesop Amnesia: At the end of the first film, Elle learned that it was important not to hide things from Lee, especially if it personally affected him in some way. In this film she's at it again, this time concealing the fact she's applied to Harvard, as Lee believes she still intends to go to UC Berkeley the same as him. She does this again in the very end when she lies to Lee, Noah, and Rachel that she got waitlisted from both Harvard and Berkeley—when in actuality, she was accepted into both schools and is uncertain of where she will go. Despite having appeared to come around about Elle and Noah's relationship by the end of the first film, Lee more or less accuses Noah during Thanksgiving of pressuring Elle into applying to Harvard, suggesting he still has some resentment for their relationship. Averted with Noah in regards to his anger issues, as shown when Noah resists hitting Marco when he tries to goad him into a fight at the Homecoming football game. | |

Artistic License | |
The Kissing Booth 2 / int_dd6ce5db | comment |
Artistic License: Artistic License – Law: While Elle is visiting Noah in Boston, they both order alcohol at a bar. Elle is asked for ID, though strangely Noah is not asked. Even with her ID though, Elle shouldn't legally be allowed to buy alcohol because the drinking age in Massachusetts is 21, and both Elle and Noah are around 18. One major plot thread involves Elle entering a dance competition with a $50,000 cash prize so she can afford to attend Harvard University. However, this runs into some problems because a simple internet search will inform you that $50,000 would barely cover tuition at Harvard; if you also factor in board/rent, room, and other fees, it costs over $70,000 unless you have financial aid. And that's just for one academic year. Not to mention Elle would have to split the prize money with her dance partner and would probably get taxed on it; overall, ~$50,000 wouldn't be nearly enough to cover her attendance. | |
