I HATE THIS FREAKING MOVIE

The first act is so great.

Even the second act starts so well...

There is so much earnest acting here, it's really depressing how far south this goes. Gilchrist's acting is certainly solid.

And it really goes so far off the rails, its surreal. It's not implausible it goes where it goes, but sheesh....

Waste of time

The acting is very poor in it. The plot is rubbish and predictable.

Entertaining spin on high school summer romance flick...

All around pretty solid movie, well acted, shot, edited, etc. Some might not care for the direction the plot takes in the second half, but I found it quite engaging. While it did require some suspension of disbelief at times, it wasn't immersion-breaking imo.

Don't understand everyone's problem with this film?

I really enjoyed it, I'm not gonna spoil anything but it seems a lot of these other reviews didn't seem to get what the film was about. There are a few things in this film that don't quite make sense but it's like that with any film, you're always gonna poke holes in films if you try to. It's a nice love story, with a dark undertone of what jealously and other people's influences can do to a relationship. Great acting and definitely worth a watch.
