I wanted to give Gia a chance. I thought that perhaps she isn't as tactless and vain as her aunt Sofia. My optimism was ill placed. Gia is par for the course.
The existence of this film is as definitively a case of sheer nepotism as anything since . . . well, The Virgin Suicides. At least Virgin Suicides was an arguably interesting failure. There is literally not one original concept, idea, thought, or even image contained within Palo Alto. I haven't read whatever it is that James Franco wrote (that this movie is based on), but it must be excruciatingly, embarrassingly bad.
