thiago s @Thiagostone 01/07/2025 Filme ruim, o roteiro é mais ou menos, o filme tem cenas que poderiam ser boas, mas não foi. See more X O @RT27220563 10/18/2023 Maybe I'm stupid, but I can't follow where it is going. What's the point? And so much swearing, especially with the 3 girl family. It's so weird. I can't see this focusing anywhere. The character of Ben is beyond a loser. Why are the girls talking to him for? He's a complete loser. See more L D @RT87004904 09/22/2023 The movie was more about female "best friend" relationships than about teen romance. This would have been fine by me -even celebrated -except the "best friends" weren't like any female best friend relationship I've ever had or seen. Sorry to disappoint but real female friends don't cuddle in bed or grope each other's breasts. If a woman wrote that relationship, I swear she is a closet lesbian in denial. Plus, for me, personally, I found all the drug use infused with Daria derived snark (as a substitution for intelligence) was unpleasant. I didn't like or relate to most of the people in the film. I did, however, like the setup. What would happen if, somehow, the laws of nature, friendship and women were broken and the new girlfriend became best friends with the old girlfriend. That was an interesting question and setup. And I did like how the movie portrayed the heartbreak of first love lost. There were times when my heart ached along in sympathy. But beyond seeing Dylan Sprouse making out with everybody (which is always appreciated), the film left me with a depressed view of today's youth.

See more Rogue 5 @RT17098361 11/01/2022 While it does a good job being a romantic comedy it has some lazy writing and a predictable storyline. See more John O @ThreeRivers 05/02/2022 Spoilers: Impressive work by Hannah/April, another of these impressive young actors who are so creative they also do the writing and executive producing. She looks a little like Sandra Bullock and has her kind of wit. This is at once a passages piece, from high school to college, and the disruption it wreaks on relationships, but also a kind of cliffhanger, as in: Who's going to end up with whom? It was interesting Clara made it clear she didn't love Nick but did love April. It did well the anything-goes kind of zeitgeist of at least some of the youths today -- boy/girl, girl/girl, lots of shots and weed. And the ever-present coming of age in these teen movies: Who am I, what do I want to do, etc.? A lot of these kids are upscale, very smart, college-bound, funny, witty and the banter reflects mind-sets of entitlement to do what you want. Only one parent was in it, like a Peanuts cartoon that has no parents, and the always competent Jessica Hecht showed the uneasy pressure of raising two smart-mouth girls alone. Seems both the boys loved April, she loved longhair Nick and Clara, and it was a let's-find-out mind-set as they moved off into college in different directions. We'll have to be content with how we feel now for now. Real nice effort to express what's going on out there in the Gen Z set, and a pretty honest story, if not that satisfying, as we see no one settling on whom they are with. Heck, they don't know.
