Mala influencia

I've seen some bad movies in my life, but this one? This one is a masterclass in chaos. It's not that I'm a film snob-heck, I'm a Vampire Diaries fan, so my standards are flexible-but even I have limits.

Who funded this? Who read the script and said, "Yes, let's go all in"? I have questions.

The leads have the chemistry of two damp sponges. The romance? I've felt more sparks watching two strangers avoid eye contact on public transport.

The scenes are stitched together like a school project-using glitter glue and confusion. Plot points pop up like they matter, then vanish forever. Emotional arcs? Character growth? Not here, honey.

And then there's the ending. The glorious, baffling, award-winningly terrible ending. It's as if the writers said, "Surprise! None of this made sense anyway," and just walked off the set.

Save your time. Or don't-maybe you need a new low bar to appreciate other films.

This movie wanted to be better than it was - desperately.

The two protagonists - Eros and Reese - are the archetypal "Bad Boy and Good Girl." However, their depictions could not have been more lackluster if they tried.

Eros is the furthest from a bad boy I've seen in a long while. Even trying to make the actor ride a motorcycle and go to jail still did not help this man make Eros the bad boy he was intended to be.

I think the largest issue with his character is that we only know pieces of him. We are never given the whole story. Even when Reese tries to ask him questions, he completely dismisses her. Which ultimately made him more aloof and standoffish than a bad boy.

As for Reese, while the good girl act was portrayed fair enough, she was completely lacking in depth. Other than knowing she dances ballet, we are given nothing else about what she loves to do or what she aspires to be when she's older. While they do show us her performing ballet, there's never a part in the movie where she says, "dancing is my passion." Thus, resulting in her being completely one-dimensional.

Due to these character choices, when they eventually "love" one another, to me, it is completely unfathomable. It is genuinely nothing more than infatuation.

This is proven further during intense scenes where Reese's life is put at risk, and Eros doesn't even react, much less show he cares. Even her father is completely emotionless throughout her stalking and bullying harassment.

So, how are we to believe that they love her when they don't show it during her hardships?

Lastly, aside from the uninspired love interests, the plot itself is severely flawed. Though some things are "resolved," like her stalker, the reasoning behind why it happened doesn't make any real sense. It seriously could not have been less thought-out. In addition, her bullying was completely unresolved...we never find out why it happened in the first place, much less get the satisfying retribution to those who had been harassing her. Resulting in the end being completely unsatisfying.

And, that's what this movie was in one word: unsatisfying. I hate to say it, but I cannot imagine anyone liking this. I cannot truly find ONE redeemable facet about it. It was simply bad.

I watched the movie, expecting it to be similar to 'Through My Window' or 'My Fault' both of which I quite enjoyed. This, however...I have no idea what this even was. The beginning looked promising, if a little absurd, but as the movie moved (or should I say dragged) forward the story became lamer and lamer and it became obvious, that it wouldn't even come close to what I was expecting. The dialogues, along with the plot were emotionless and often very random, the ending was rushed and empty. When the movie ended I sat in silence, trying to process what had I just watched. If you only take one advice from me, let it be this one: this movie is a pointless watch. It has little to no depth, and you won't ever get back that 1h48min you'd spent watching it. A big let down in my opinion.

I don't usually write reviews, but I just had to. I knew going into the movie that it wasn't going to be some masterpiece, obviously. But this was just bad. It felt like it was all over the place and going in different directions (not in a good way). It seemed like every other scene was a new party. There was no substance to this film and I was bored a few different times. The acting could've been better from both leads, but I thought that the actor who played the Dad and the actress who played Eros's friend were better.

I just didnt believe anything in this movie and didnt connect with anything. The story had an interesting premise but it just wasn't made well so it didnt work out. As far as any of the mystery went, because the film didn't rope me in and make me feel anything for anyone in it, it just fell flat for me. Especially the ending.

Again, I wasn't expecting a masterpiece. So usually I rate this type of films with less strictness than others, but this was just bad. Very forgettable and felt like a waste of time.

I really don't know how to express how ridiculous this movie was. There are so many good films coming out of Spain and this unfortunately was not one of them.

And I feel that the actors are going to get the brunt of this negativity but it really starts with the writing.

I don't know why anyone thought the plot was going to be spectacular. But then it just really went downhill as the movie went on.

Especially towards the end when the story kind of finally unfolds it seemed very forced and quick.

I don't find the love interests believable and I feel like all the characters had lots of drama.

I mean if you got some time to kill and you're just curious then see it but don't go around changing any plans just to see it.
