Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
TrueHello
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

I don't know why I left this movie on until the end. Where do I start. The Main characters just get high and drink and giggle and mack on chicks the whole time- so to start with there is no plot to speak of. There is no story, no special moments, no script. The father seems rather homosexual and the mother too young to be his mother and they both just seem like 2 of his friends- bad casting. Its supposed to be about some place in New Orleans? Ho did the movie show that in any way except for stating several times the 18 year old drinking age. Its really not worth reviewing so this is more like a warning don't waste your eye sight.

I forgot early on that this movie was supposed to be a comedy. It is at no point light hearted enough to be comedic in a fun way, and never cognizant enough of the awfulness of the main character to be a dark comedy. And the main character is truly horrible. He's the self centered jerk, spoiled rich kid, never going anywhere stoner, hopeless alcoholic, and shameless cruel womanizer all in one. Whatever charisma he supposedly has that keeps anyone as his friend or attracts girls to him is completely hidden from the viewer. By the time I was considering turning off the movie I was too invested in seeing something horrible happen to him to turn away.But nothing horrible happens. All of his messes are cleaned up, everyone loves him, he never has to show or gain an ounce of humanity or humility. He's on top of the world at the end of the movie and there is no lesson, no catharsis of any kind. So something horrible did happen, to me!!!I feel sorry for all the characters in the movie for having this person in their life and thinking he's OK. I feel really sorry for Sean Carlin. The kid has a great, friendly, and seemingly comedic screen presence that seems completely wasted here.

I have never been more baffled than I was when I realized I sat through this whole film. I mean how did this get made, let alone get on Netflix?! It is like a kid that dropped out of his first year at community college got his rich parents to fund a movie for him and his friends. I am half a semester through a script writing class and I could write literally a thousand times better than this. Nothing happens in this movie, no plot at all, and everything that does happen could happen now days. The director must be a hypnotist, there is no other explanation for how I sat through this. Please anyone explain to me how this film was made, maybe I am missing something.

I really enjoyed this funny "coming of age" type film! Watching this film, it struck me how close to reality the characters were, especially Paul, a modern day Casanova and not unlike today's metro sexual! I thought the dialog was snappy and smart and loved the look of the film. As someone who has lived a large part of my 35 years in the Fat City area I would like to thank the filmmakers for documenting the Fat City area of New Orleans since there is very little literature / media about the area and its perspective from teenagers growing up in the area. See this film, it is a great way to experience time in an area long forgotten and seldom shared!
