Rachel Sennott's character is as unlikeable as the film she resides in. Olivia Peace's directorial debut is a film about a repulsive human who attempts to make herself the center of attention at a funeral. It serves no purpose, but it is in focus. Why would anyone want to be around this character is anyone's guess, yet the movie pivots on one person's love interest for a sociopath. Ugh. Final Score: 2.1/10
Very much a first film. Starts off quite endearing and funny, but the main character, Hannah, is a caricature. She has zero redeeming features and it is unclear why Carrie would want to be her friend, much less love her. Carrie herself never fully comes to life as she is the foil for Hannah.
A moving comedy about the awkwardness, confusion, and pain of adolescence, all set in one afternoon. The entire cast was outstanding, with Madeline DeFreece's performance particularly so. Her facial expressions and body language communicate far more than what is spoken by the other teens.
