It’s a highly enjoyable romance from front to back that’ll leave you wishing, hoping, and anticipating which couple you’ll spend the sophomore season with. Until then, this series will get plenty of replays.
-
This frothy “opposites attract” series will fill the YA romance series hole in your life.
-
It is high-class, lovable nonsense, and I love it.
-
Even with their clothes on, the charismatic characters are fun to be in the company of, with their day-to-day lives serving a balance of drama, comedy, romance and raunch that's eminently bingeable.
-
Overall, “Off Campus” is a wonderful addition to the wildly popular YA romance genre — and a worthy successor to Prime Video megahit “The Summer I Turned Pretty.” And while fans of the OG books might not love the way in which certain scenes (or even characters) were re-written, when comparing the two, a lot of the rewritten beats flow more naturally for the characters.
-
Detractors might call the show cheesy or a guilty pleasure, but for lovers of romance, there's nothing guilty about it, and by the end of the finale, you'll be clamoring to return to Briar U as soon as possible.
-
Off Campus is sometimes a little too glossy and derivative, but while it isn't necessarily original, Garrett and Hannah's relationship is sincere enough to win us over.
-
Encompassing all of the tropes of an opposites-attract love story, “Off Campus” isn’t reinventing the wheel, but it’s still an interesting ride.
-
It's a little corny; the dialogue can be cheesy, it's at times overly reliant on romance micro tropes, and it never really manages to create a distinctive atmosphere. Still, though, as far as book adaptations go, this one was clearly made with genuine love and care, and in the end, that's all anyone who enjoys reading and watching romance can really ask for.
