This is a frustrating movie because it has some beautiful moments and ideas, but it is dimmed by some weaknesses: it is uneven in its pacing, there isn't quite enough plot to sustain it, some of the story turns are predictable, some of the humor is a tad forced, and so on. Even the title and cover image are flawed: I passed over this movie at least a dozen times on Netflix Instant Watch because I assumed it was a booby flick aimed at teenage boys. But it actually has some insight and romance and character development, and is mostly well done. It just falls short of what it could have been. Worth a watch/rent.
