Good Girl Jane

Watched> Wednesday, 19th March, 2025 @ Edge Water Studios. Rated 2 * * stars > Average/Fair - 4/10 < Cert. Should be 15 > Jane, played very well by Rain Cooper. The story based in Los Angeles, California, USA in 2005, about a young 'hoodie' teenage girl, with little ambitions, living with her Sister and Mother, separated from her Dad. Mother is busy with her own life of work and socialising, not giving much time for Jane, who is detached from family life, sitting a lot in her room, on her computer and mobile, whilst blasting out music to her mother's annoyance. Jane is a loner at her local high school, by not mixing with others, just distancing herself from life in general. Then she's drawn in to another world of wild teenage boys and girls boozing, snorting the white stuff and having sex. Jane is now enjoying the attention of others, which is now more exciting than her previous lifestyle. Unknown to Jane, this is the downward slope to a tragic way of living, despite the fun of all the partying throughout the night. I do feel this Film/Movie is somewhat drawn out about 20 minutes, instead of 1h 57m, it would have been more suited to 1h 37m. It is still worth giving it a try. (ps)
