The first twenty minutes absolutely blew me away, totally enjoyable, when she'd disappeared I honestly thought it was going to be a kind of Gone Girl thriller, wrong, it fell somewhere between Road Trip and the Goonies. After adjusting to what essentially became a teenage road trip movie I kind of enjoyed it, there were some entertaining moments. I couldn't help feeling a little bit robbed, it had been set up so well, it literally felt like a different film after her disappearance.
The ending at least was one that decided not to pander to audience satisfaction, a little sour but interesting. As always with this kind of film the usual clichés are there in full, point zero as is the rule is the prom, they always have to be motivated by the prom.
Interesting casting, Nat Wolff was very good as Quentin, he didn't overplay it, very enjoyable. I will applaud the decision to cast Cara as Margo, maybe not the top of many lists but I felt her personality and natural self gave Margo her enigma and mysterious edge, I thought she was very good, the accent slipped to English on a few occasions, but that can be forgiven, I hope it's a springboard for her I like her.
6/10 It was good, it should have been so much more.
