Donald S This is an underrated well acted indie movie about teen obsession. I don't totally get why the main guy does what he does considering his love interest is committed to him. Maybe if he laid bare his insecurities it would have made more sense. But perhaps the point in this movie is it's simplicity, a young obsessed mind perhaps doesn't need that much of a trigger. But the acting was superb and it felt very real. I've watched this a few times and I go back to it often. It's very interesting and riveting and deserves more praise. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/09/24 Full Review Audience Member Romantic turns thriller. I loved this movie and if you're a fan of "you" on netflix youll love this film aswell. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Really exciting movie. I loved it Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member It starts out OK and gets progressively worse. There is no motivation for the male character's mis-deeds. The female character seems to inexplicably romanticize the most unromantic of actions. Good production values, so I call it a well-made, well-acted piece of crap. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Nobody is going to love the ending, but this movie deserved better reviews. It was surprising and very entertaining. The male lead is fascinating, I love all his work. It was also pretty fun to see the dad from twilight play a total creep. Watch it! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member an authentically-styled film. riveting, certainly keeps you on the edge of your seat. extremely thought-provoking long after viewing.
