In the film, everything is absolutely wonderful without a happy-end. Lots of frank erotic scenes - I always feel some embarrassment at such moments) I also liked the crew of actors. I want to make a brief review... Actual movie, it is worth seeing and, of course, raising an unreasonably low rating.Thanks!

As the review title suggests, I was impressed by the acting in this film. In fact, the performances are phenomenal -- especially from Morgan Saylor. Absolutely fearless.It's nice to see a movie that depicts people as real people in real places instead of as hyper-real, campy, or contrived. I personally know people who made the move from small towns/small cities to the big city and this story rings true on a number of levels.Watching the characters descend into what seems to be an unrecoverable downward spiral is fascinating both by the tragedy of it and the accelerated pace that this film presents. As such, the tight editing in this movie should also be mentioned. The narrative flows smoothly throughout.Leah's encounters with the various 'pitfalls' of the big city proceed to take a notch off of her over-confident view that she is an invincible thrill-seeker -- free of consequence.So it is then that the final scene of her sitting down to the first day of the second year of college is all that more jarring. It makes you really wonder what kind of history your classmates have. Behind each face is a story, and hers is so extreme that it threatens to rip her right out of functional society. One change that I think might have resulted in even more impact would have been to make it the first day of her first year at college. She could still have been the same age (perhaps taking some time off after graduating high school). That way she'd truly be moving into new territory with a nearly-destroyed frame-of-reference. As it is though, it's still an effective ending that leaves the audience to ponder what is either her new beginning or the start of a new crash.What is most haunting is that Blue will probably always hate her and will never know the sacrifices that she made to try to help him (however misguided her methods were).

I get it. This is Elizabeth Woods' first feature film. Making movies is really hard. Let alone a good one. But that doesn't excuse the fact that this movie has some of the most boring characters I've seen in a long time. There's no depth to them at all. Our main protagonist (Leah) basically only cares about getting her boyfriend out of jail (whom she just met by the way, so I have no idea why she's putting herself into all this trouble to get her retard boyfriend out of prison).. and that's it. That's the whole plot. This movie brings nothing new to the table and the same story has been told numerous times before. I don't even get why she went out of her way to prevent her boyfriend from getting jail time, if she's just out screwing other guys anyways. It makes no sense. It's hard to sympathize with any of the characters, because they're all just really boring a**holes. I don't know how to end this review.. watch it if you've already seen every other movie that's ever existed ever and you feel like wasting 90 minutes of your life you'll never get back

The entire time I was glued to this film, its pure drama. I cannot recommend this movie enough to my friends. Its a wild adventure of a girl on an extreme summer break, and it all feels too real. I hated this film in the best way because it made me feel something, every dimly lit second of it. Any white girl, aged 16-30 will probably love this film, even if the whole time you're screaming 'OH MY GOD why did she do that' This is a story of a girl who spends a summer thinking with her short term gains in mind, its all fun and games until it hits close to home. God damn I don't wanna give away too much into the story because its so good, but trigger warning, there is rape culture that comes with most dramas about sex and teenage girls with drugs and dealers.
