The First Time is a coming-of-age drama that captures those awkward moments of teenage romance. The film centers on Alex, who’s trying to navigate the complexities of young love while battling the pressures of friends. You can really feel that raw, nostalgic vibe, with the beach setting amplifying the laid-back yet tense atmosphere. The pacing is a bit meandering at times, which reflects the uncertainty of first experiences. There's an honesty in the performances, particularly in the way Alex and Sofia awkwardly stumble through their interactions—it's relatable. While it doesn’t break new ground, there’s something quite genuine about its portrayal of those formative moments we all go through. It’s that mix of humor and vulnerability that makes it interesting.
