The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

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.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Chloe is an attractive teen who one day tries to help a seagull and he is aided by Nick and Jason. They manage to save the bird only to find out that later Chloe will keep it as a pet and eventually kills the animal. The two boys spend increasingly more time with the girl and soon will discover some dark secrets about their newest friend. After a while another girl, Hillary joins the gang and now they are all caught in Chloe's dirty game. The characters are presented too forced right from the beginning but for a bunch of unknown actors, they've manage to play their part very well so the acting wasn't so bad. The problem is with the story that doesn't evolve. The director even borrow an idea from The Bling Ring but this didn't save the film, brings even more harm to the scenario.In conclusion, you might not fall asleep but still does not worth to spoil your eyes watching this.

A girl meets a few people after moving to a new town and she teaches them about drugs and partying and things and ends up being a lot more messed up than they thought at first.I thought the movie was pretty cool. I loved the scenery and the music and there were a few times where the girl had me pretty freaked out. I thought the ending was cool too because it didn't like spell out everything or have it all end up nicely with everything solved. Also it has Ned! But he's older and hotter now.I don't know why people are hating on this so hard. We went with friends and had a good time. Isn't that what movies are all about?

This movie is the worst I've seen. I was mislead by the high note in IMDb but I didn't saw it was only the opinion of less than 10 people.It's all about a crazy girl that manipulates 2 guys and a girl. The scenario is empty. Nothing really happens and when it does we have no clue why the 2 guys do whatever the crazy girl tell them to. It's full of cliché and stereotypes. One scene was quite amusing though : one of the guy is buying condoms and the girl he'd like to make out with comes at that moment. But that's all.It's definitely not a "thriller" it's a "so what..?" . Besides we know right from the beginning what is going to happen and not because of "clever" deduction but just because that's the way the scenario is written.. I lost 90 minutes of my life. only good thing is that one actor is cute to watch. Avoid!

i am a major fan of the virgin suicides.imagine the creepy thinking process of the Lisbon girls on drugs with ignorant Malibu students.i loved the movie definitely watch it. the girl Chloe was scary. she's a psychopath in the hottest way. hands down loved the movie. iloved the twist on Charles Manson's creepy crawling and marry poppins.one thing i didn't like was the way Rachel was so randomly introduced.other than that two thumbs uprecommend it for ages 15- 25not your typical i hate myself teen movie, for once an actual good teen movie
