Verdict: I gave this film a 2/10 and not a 1/10 because it attempted to be something, even though it completely failed to achieve it. Every single character felt like a parody of themselves, making them unlikable, cringy, and hard to relate to. The lazy and predictable jokes did not work at all for me, and I didn't laugh once in the entire 110-minute runtime. The main story, which tried to communicate a message to the audience, was handled really poorly and ended up following the same formula every single Hollywoodian dramedy follows. The soundtrack consisted of a popular pop song being played every 5 minutes, which became incredibly annoying very fast. I can't really think of one aspect I enjoyed about the film, and I'd recommend staying away from it. 

Final Grade: 2/10
