One time watch; Not bad or good
This isn't for everyone if I'm honest I feel like the message or the purpose of this movie is hard to perceive. I skipped around a bit too bc some of the dialogue and scenes were just fillers. It's pretty confusing why he quits school and why his sister is so nonchalant about it. I guess given his family situation he just wanted a break from all the stress and quit on a whim bc he was regretting after. It also seems like he craves love and security but doesn't know what it is and just chases whatever he sees first. Perhaps the movie was getting at sex does not equal love in that aspect. The girls story was her falling in love at first sight with someone who she knows nothing about and expecting him to like her back too. With her it might be that we tend to create fantasies in our heads about someone we're infatuated with without knowing them and when its crushed by reality it doesn't register easily. The ending is where that really comes out. Except what isn't sitting with me is that they had sex??? that kind of retracts the purpose I said before because he didn't even remember her so he just wanted to do it with someone who loved him but did he even like her back..I doubt. He used her to fill a void and she just wanted him to fulfill what she had in her head. It's the reality of some relationships too I guess. It's kind of sad but true. When you put this sort of real life thing into a movie I suppose it's harder to understand because we do things that we don't really have a reason for or we do things for twisted reasons that we don't let be known. Overall I give it a 6.5/10 bc it just wasn't a really riveting movie but you may like it so don't let me influence you completely.
