It was an okay movie. Got you questioning your views on age difference and also the double standards that exist around it. The chemistry wasn’t really there but it wasn’t absent either. Really liked the acting, they successfully managed to show shame, sorrow and longing in a beautiful way. The characters, especially Solène, could make better decisions though. She could also have a little bit of a deeper back story to explain why she sees a 24 y/o as a love interest shortly after meeting him, because that’s kinda not normal. In conclusion, it was fine. Neither a waste of time, nor a masterpiece.

Feels like the script came straight out of a middle schooler fanfiction drafts prior to proof reading. Failed attempt at making an enemies-to-lovers and pretend-relationship work in a movie. Characters acting stupid, insufferable, unable to communicate and overall, like young teenagers in sitcoms. The hype around this movie was so much and I was greatly disappointed. The two main actors acted well, the rest not so much. I’m giving 2 stars because the first and last 5-10 mins were cute lol. Can’t help but feel sad that a lot of budget goes to such weak projects and actors with so much more to offer (Sydney in particular. She’s a great actress) play in them.

It was so childish and annoying. Grown adults acting like literal children, trying to sabotage each other in order to win other people over. Graham’s family was genuinely unrealistic in how they completely disregarded their son’s emotions and boundaries and it was all justified by “well you don’t spend enough time with us so we’ll go and hang out with your ex behind your back!”. And the said ex wasn’t even likable…Honestly the only reason this didn’t get a 1 star from me is the ending [Spoiler] where Graham did the exact same thing to his sister by inviting heather over. That was so so so satisfying.
