No Wonder They Read This in High School
3 November 2012
Remember those annoyingly popular couples in high school whose drama-filled romance was more than you could stomach as they alternated between syrupy stargazing and enraged jealousy? Well, the lead characters in this movie are a little bit more mature than your obnoxious 10th grade friends but they share the same illusions about what love is.

Not that I'm an expert on love but like pornography I know what it isn't when I don't see it. This reminds me of the awful tabloid stories about that dirtball Chris Brown beating the hell out of his delusional girlfriend Rihanna and both of them imagining that theirs is some great love story for the ages when in reality they're just a couple of self-absorbed nimrods.

On the other hand, I did like this movie because I can certainly relate to eagerness for revenge, impure love, and self-absorption.
