Watching this might make you dumber.

Warning: Spoilers
(not sure if these count as spoilers) I watched this movie on Netflix after it described it as a "thriller" about dark secrets coming out. The only thrill was when it was over and I didn't have to endure this awful movie anymore. The writing was absolutely horrible. The dialogue seemed like a 40-something man trying to write for teenage girls. It all came off as very awkward, and not at all realistic. The plot was boring and predictable. But despite these glaring flaws, what really bothered me was the character of Chapin. This girl is shown throughout the movie to be a callous, mean-spirited little troll of a person, and the movie expects us to feel bad for her. Time and time again, this character goes out of her way to make life miserable for those around her, simply to have something "exciting" to do, and it makes the viewer feel nothing but loathing and resentment for her. And her so-called "redemption", really just makes you hate her even more for being so stupid. If you like insipid, trite teeny-bopper movies like Twilight, this should be right up your alley. Otherwise, steer clear.
