This film is nice... (just nice).
It isn't bad, it certainly isn't original, is full of the typical teen clichés and desperately wants to be more than it is whilst trying to be quaint - an Amazon movie production that wants to be a small indie film.
And that's a bit of a problem. It tries soo hard to be original - even when it spends the whole movie commenting on similar movies. The acting is really ropey (sorry) which gets even more cringey when combined with the some (most) of the cheesy narrative.
Plot holes are also an issue. The movie 'tries' to be intellectual but as the movie and characters develop the story starts to play fast and loose on the concept of time in order to focus on the relationship between the two lead characters.
If you can get past all of this then you'll probably enjoy it, but you certainly wouldn't want to watch it on repeat ;-)
