    people need to calm down.
    Everyone is acting all offended SJW about this movie in these reviews and don't remember how much people suck in high school. this movie is really accurate and just because the boy likes her in the end doesn't mean it promotes catfishing, the whole movie it's obvious how wrong it is and at the end both Sierra and Jamey talk about how terrible it was to do that. Most teen movies from previous generations are just as problematic, but hey guess what teenagers are pronlematic, nothing wrong with a story that shows how bad it is to lie and bully friends. the main theme of this movie is about not judging a book by its cover and so what it used catfishing as a story telling device? this is the same plot of cinderella story except hillary duff is hot and doesn't have to hide the way she looks because itll put the guy off. it was a perfectly good teen rom com.
