What a stupid movie. I'm not even going to hide spoilers here, because I'm HOPING that after seeing spoilers, people won't waste their time with this movie.

These three teens are going around doing heinous shit (robbing drug dealers, stealing cars, beating people to near death, ACTUALLY shooting and killing a guy, etc.) and there's not a SINGLE consequence for the entire first hour of the movie; completely unrealistic.

Who the hell decided that Amber Heard was old enough to be the mother of a 16-18 year old?? I swear to you, I thought she was Nicky's girlfriend in the beginning of the movie, and not his mom. You couldn't have found someone a BIT older looking for that role?

Terrance Howard. Do I even NEED to comment on this ridiculous/useless character? Terrance, were you looking for some kind of 'range' role? Why did you even agree to this role? They never explain his character (not even once), he's just the 'random homeless crazy bum' that shows up everywhere, ATTEMPTS to say profound things (to himself, of course), with no direct, nor indirect, correlation to the characters.

I honestly think the director/writer tried a bit too hard to make this movie seem 'artistic' (I guess?). They tried to work backwards, and they actually got that part right :clap_tone3:... but they completely ruined the middle/body of the movie. By the time I got to the ending, I no longer cared, nor had any remaining interest, due to the fact that they couldn't hold my interest for the bulk of the movie.

It's like the director saw the movie, "Moonlight", and decided, "Yeah, I can do something like that". No.
(...and I'm not even a big fan of Moonlight, to be honest, but this is much worse). Don't think for a second that I don't see the attempt from the director (believe me, I get it), but it just misses the mark so hard, and in so many different aspects, that I can't forgive it. I can overlook one or two minor details, but this is just chocked full of inconsistencies.

Jonathon Majors' character and acting was the only saving grace, in a movie that couldn't be salvaged. :person_shrugging_tone3:♂

I completely agree on Amber Heard, but you missed the point of Terrance Howard's character completely. <br /> <br /> It's hard to follow, because the story is based on true experiences and it's just as over the place. That seems to be a common thing in film right now and I agree that's just taking away anymore from the actual story and point of any movie like this. <br /> <br /> Still you gave it a 5? Your rant suggests way lower.
