Selected

Naive/amateurish

I believe the meaning is number 3, literally "inexperienced", so I think clumsy/clumsily (I.e. Not skiful) or naive/amateurish ("inexperienced") would be a suitable translation

Example translation:"..behaved in a rather silly and naive/amateurish/clumsy manner for the first half of the film"


Ref:

嫩的意思:
① 初生而柔弱:娇嫩、嫩芽。
②(颜色)淡、浅:嫩绿、嫩黄。
③ 幼稚、不老练:稚嫩、嫩手。
⑤ 轻、微:“嫩寒清晓。”

"Inept" is another possibility

young and unexperienced

嫩 literally means “tender”. It is usually used to denote a lack of experience in a field or industry, a sense of inadequacy.

In certain other context, it could also mean youthful, but not in this one.
