Rebellious, quick-witted Erica Vandross (Zoey Deutch) is a sassy 17-year-old living with her single mom Laurie (Kathryn Hahn) and mom's new boyfriend Bob (Tim Heidecker) in L.A.'s San Fernando Valley. When Bob's son Luke (Joey Morgan) moves in with the family after a stint in rehab, Erica finds her domestic and personal life overwhelmed. With Luke and her sidekicks Kala (Dylan Gelula) and Claudine (Maya Eshet) in tow, Erica acts out by exposing a dark secret of high-school teacher Will (Adam Scott), with perilous results; their teenage kicks become a catalyst for growing up in unexpected and unpredictable ways. Mixing dark comedy and teenage angst, writer-director Max Winkler (CEREMONY) and co-writer Matt Spicer (INGRID GOES WEST) create a star vehicle for blossoming talent Zoey Deutch (BEFORE I FALL, WHY HIM?) and elevate the teen movie to unpredictable new heights.

Graderings en resensies

Surprisingly upbeat and saccharine sweet for a film involving sexual blackmail and pedophilia. The script was kind of meandering and ending feels slapped on, like the writer wrote himself into a corner and said screw it lets go for a happy ending.

Pedophile propaganda! Just proves more and more that Hollywood IS full of pedophiles and rapists

tries too hard...to be corny (like black panther) watermelons, anyone?
