    Painfully Mediocre

    As far as plot, this one is just mediocre. Easy enough to understand but not given proper attention to be particularly interesting. I wasn't invested enough in the outcomes of anything to care what happened either way.

    To make matters worse, the lead actress is not likable at all to me. Something about her puts me off. I'm sure others wouldn't mind her though-most likely just an opinion of mine.

    An enjoyable watch

    This film tells the story of a college girl who tries compensated dating to get inspiration for her column.

    The story is actually quite good. It strikes the right balance between entertainment and questioning the morality of her actions. It is light enough and yet still treat this as a serious subject. I enjoyed it a lot.

    The New Romantic Review of the film

    It's worth to watch this movie for one important reason: so you know what not to do with your life, not to push beyond thin lines. And also, to process some personality traits that we may all have but we may as well hide. This film shows how possible it is to be on "the other side" by just being yourself, not resisting, not having any moral restrictions, nothing to hold you back. It challenges matters of personality, ethics as well as social interpersonal relationships.

    Nice story

    It has a good plot and good acting, but the camera is shaking almost the entire time. I don't know how, it just bothers me. The main character looks like a 16 year old girl which makes the make out scene with the older guy kind of weird, but her acting is really good. Also, it's really nice to see Camila Mendes and Hayley Law from Riverdale here.

    Not even Riverdale chicks can save this film.

    Laughable at best. The lead girl looks like she is 11 years old which makes the sex in this extremely awkward. The writing was awful, the script was a train wreck. The thought that bringing in two girls from Riverdale to try and make this film great failed completely. Best part of this film was the soundtrack which had some pretty decent songs. That's where the second star comes in. Save yourself the time and skip over this one.
