umm..... no - not good

Full disclosure - I fast-forwarded the film and only saw a few segments in full.
Usually, I don't review a film just by looking at a few segments, but the few segments that I did pause to see were so bad that I can tell you right now this is garbage - it was bad enough that I deleted it already. It was directed and written by a young lady and..... I don't think she's got a bright future in the writing/directing department ahead of her. Nice try though - I'll give her bonus points just for trying, I guess.

Problems in the film ... adults talking like juvenile idiots, while the teens are just a tiny bit more mature. Everything is poorly done - the dialogues in particular. Acting isn't that great either. I imagine the actresses can do a decent job under the right direction with the right script, but this wasn't it.

I'll give it 3/10. Skip.

PS. I just checked the reviews on metacritic and rotten tomatoes - holy cow - the woke mobs are loving it - female reviewers, giving it top score.
lol.... I guess you'll all be seeing it then. Let me know if you agree with my review or the mainstream reviews out there.

It was terrible. Paper thin across the board. Felt like a Lifetime movie of the week debuted on HBO Max

Agreed about the terrible dialogue with the adults sounding like they had brain damage. Overall terribly boring and poorly directed they only good thing was Jenna Ortega's permeance not that she was great but good enough

3/10 sounds about right for this crap

I totally disagree. I thought it was fantastic with powerhouse performances and exceptionally well written and directed. 9/10 from me.
