Dreadful, Predictable, Cliched, Poorly written, Excruciating

See it if You know someone in the cast or crew and want to be supportive.

Don't see it if You want more than an occasional spark of decent acting from an otherwise dull, drudge filled two plus hours of millennial melodrama. Read more

Complex, Great acting, Thought-provoking, Intense, Relevant

See it if Emotionally damaged young people seek refuge in a house that is haunted by past trauma. Relationship fireworks lead to self searching.

Don't see it if You are uninterested in flailing 20-somethings. One character was stereotypical comic relief. Read more
