So I decided to watch this movie due to two of my favorite actors were in the show (Madelaine Petsch from Riverdale and Danielle Campbell from The Originals) and the trailer made the movie sound cliché but extremely interesting and fun. I was super excited when it was released onto Netflix.
Unfortunately within the first 10 min I was already like, "Seriously this movie is garbage." but I was hoping it would become more interesting and kept watching. But it didn't. The movie was full of plot holes, terrible acting, weird and unnecessary sexual jokes and swearing. Honestly if the writers took out the sex and swearing, 8-12yrs would enjoy the film a lot more then teenagers.
For example, why were the three main characters planning so much to destroy when the literally just spiked Marissa's punch and pulled the fire alarm? It sounded like it was going to be a completely terrible night, and instead all the teens just moved to the parking lot and had a good time there. Also what happens to Marrissa and Maddy's relationship? Why was that was never resolved? And what of Maddy and her cheating boyfriend? And why can't Maddy and Cole date at the end? Yes he is off to college, but them riding their bikes into the sunset isn't a satisfactory ending for me.
Yes the movie contained good messages of not bullying people and treating people with respect but it was extremely unrealistic and cliché in everyway possible.
Save yourself an hour and a bit and just watch the trailer and then read the plot summary on Wiki. Trust me, you aren't missing anything by not watching this film.
