I watched this because I recently got into the new TV series on Hulu of the same name. That series is engaging, makes you care about the characters, and actually delivers some important messages on grooming. This movie does none of that. There is absolutely no build-up or character development whatsoever. Like seriously, an unseasoned chicken leg at Susan's backyard barbecue has more flavor than these characters. I think it tries to give you the whole "predatory teacher" message, but it kind of just gets jumbled up in weird sex scenes, unnecessary family drama, and unexplained breakdowns. Also, the soundtrack at the beginning is one of the most horrendous things I've ever heard. I only gave it two stars instead of one because the scenes have some parallels to the TV show, which just made me appreciate how much better the show is. Anyway, don't waste your time.
