What the critics say
Critics mostly call Kiss a sweet, predictable teen romance carried by likeable debut leads and good songs, though several flag a dragging, overlong second half and one review finds it dramatically hollow.

Derived by Filmi
30
How this number was made. We read every review and derive a 0–100 reading from each — including where the critic printed a number, which stays first on its row, because it’s theirs. The Filmi Score is the mean of 5 readings; 2 of those rows also carry the critic’s own rating, shown beside ours. Rubric v2.1, computed 26 Oct 2026. Any critic can ask us to remove a derived reading.
