Happy Times (2021) is one of those quirky little rom-coms that takes a high school setting and weaves it into a tapestry of youthful longing and awkward situations. The whole thing has this light, almost whimsical atmosphere, with moments that range from genuinely sweet to painfully cringeworthy. Toni's infatuation with Kim is both relatable and frustrating, especially when you realize that Kim's intentions are less than pure. There's a certain charm in the way the film explores themes of unrequited love and sibling dynamics. The performances are solid, particularly from the lead, who captures that teenage angst well. Plus, the pacing keeps things moving without dragging, making it a breezy watch. All in all, it has its own unique vibe that stands apart from other teen films.
