[spoiler]This movie really has bad ratings. Though understandable by being another sad story about how life is hard for teens from middle class to high-middle class (i don't know if this is a thing), this makes the plot feels shallow, and worse yet, they could avoided (and probably made a better movie) by not making the other 2 friends (Rebecca and Amelia) only comic relief. They could have developed Rebecca's financial problems, instead they made her have hots for her teacher. And they could probably explore more of Amelia's relationship with her parents. Instead of making a movie about two sad friends feeling grief over a boy/brother, they could have made a movie about actual people coming to terms about becoming adults.
But I still think is a too low rating for this movie. Even though I understand why the five rating, there are some great lines here, there is also a somewhat not that shallow understanding of grief, like how different people deal with death differently, though in not great detail. [/spoiler]

To sum it up I'd say that if you don't have the time or patience for a mid grade movie, don't waste your time, go watch something else. If you want movies about becoming adults I doubt this is the best or one of the greats, the same for movies about grieving.

"_Skins_" this is not.

_Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product._
