The social issues The Half of it takes on are handled well, between the antagonization brought on to Ellie for her race and the conflict that arises from her being gay. Both aspects of her character are built up over the course of the film and don’t seem abrupt or rushed.

These ideas aren’t thrust upon the viewer in a preachy manor, the scenarios that occur feel believable given the rural setting.
