You won't be disappointed!
Best movie of this year hands down!
This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Badly scripted, badly acted, just so so bad. Cliche after cliche it doesn't even come close to being believable. The baddie is worse than bad he's rotten. Don't waste you time.
I wouldn't consider the Jennifer Lopez character in this movie to be flawed, just more or less vulnerable. The younger guy who moved in next door to her was charming enough at first, but he became progressively and unbelievably twisted as the film moved along.I need to note here that Jennifer is way too beautiful for the "age difference" to even be noticeable. Besides, the connection was clear between the two leads. In fact, everyone gelled well together to make this cautionary tale work on the big screen.This movie should serve two lessons: people aren't always who they appear to be...and everyone makes mistakes.
Noah would have been put in handcuffs and sent in jail for beating up the student and hitting the vice principal in any real school. But then the movie would have ended there. A teacher does not confront an out of control student like Noah without calling the police. No violent student like Noah would be allowed to stay in school. Lame plot.
Nothing original, nothing clever, so predictable. I can't believe money was spent on making something like this. And the title? Couldn't come up with anything else? Sorry but 19 year old boys don't know how to use the words this fellow did to seduce her. Trying too hard to be poetic at that age.You might like it if you like Jennifer Lopez. Such an eye roller...Unless you love the guy in 'Sex and the City', Aiden, Carrie's boyfriend at one point. He acts like a father trying to hard to be a teenager.
