A group of students share a house living pretty chaotically. Allie (Stephanie Simbari) encourages her best friend Kort (Kortney played by Allie Gallerani) to pursue Daniel. Allie (the character) finds herself getting jealous when the new couple start to date. While Daniel and Kort are spending more time together, Allie struggles to face up to how little she's actually achieving on her own.
While the acting is generally strong, as someone not living in the US, I found the diction and accent hard to follow for the first fifteen minutes or so - this was especially true of Stephanie Simbari. While things improve as we move along, Allie does also come over as not such a likeable character. It's quite hard to sympathise with her rather self-indulgent attitudes.
It feels a little as though some reviewers here have marked the film up purely because it comes at student excess from a refreshing angle - the girls' viewpoint. It's true that this is a nice change but it doesn't warrant giving the film 9s or 10s. At the same time it's not a bad film. The 1s and 2s don't make sense either. For me, this is a straight down the middle 5.
5/10

A mix of a rom com and a coming of age tale, this has it's moments mainly due to the strong cast and acting.
The plot is pretty straight laced and should resonate with a lot of it's target audience.
Girl sets up best friend with dishy guy and has to deal with the consequences of being left to fend for herself.
Leads to some recriminations and the final reckoning. Goes down easy.

This movie is so cliche, the main character is so unlikable it's not even funny. She's self centered, extremely jealous of her friend because she has a boyfriend and she is the one who encouraged her to talk to him in the beginning. I can't take any of it seriously so NOT WORTH A STREAM!

*full disclosure* I am 40 and probably not the target demographic of this movie. But I'd like to think that even when I was 20, I would still think this was horrendous. It's as though an old film exec was told that he needed to have a film from a young female perspective and he copied some old 80s sexist misogynistic teen film and switched the genders, so instead of a man being disgusting and objectifying, it was a woman. Hooray for a equality. There was literally no point to this film, there is no story, I didn't care about the characters or the relationships and everyone seemed unpleasant. There is no heart to this film. I don't know why I watch the whole thing, I think I just assumed that there would surely be some point to it. I was wrong.

This is absolutely one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I love super cheesy rom-coms and fun girlfriend movies, but this....this is absolute crap.
I can't even imagine having a friend like Allie (the main lead). She is exactly the kind of friend no one should want and no one should have, and yet it seems the writer was trying to make her somehow relatable and likeable? Not even close. It was very cringe-worthy most of the time.
Just an absolutely terrible movie.

There is a reason they say write what you know... whitewashed college movie that boils a bunch of girls down to surface level cliches. There is an entire genre that should be renamed to 'Bad films about women written by men' which almost always feature a scene where a girl relaxes sexily on her bed in flattering underwear whilst at home on her own. In the first scene of this film one character mentions periods and the other says 'eeeew gross' HAVE YOU ACTUALLY MET A WOMAN?

This movie is so bad but it's very comforting to me so I often find myself watching it when I need some comfort or relaxation. If you like movies like that, you might want to give it a try. I have no idea why I do enjoy it but I do.

Easily one of the most cringeworthy movies I have watched. It was painful how bad the screen writing was, with terrible awkward moments and so many parts why I was like whyyyy? Lots of unnecessary scenes, the climax was exceptionally mediocre and the ending was just corny and strange. I wish I get back the hour I spent watching this terrible, corny, trashy, awkward mess!

This movie is horrible, the main character is so unlikable it's not even funny. She's self centered, extremely jealous of her friend because she has a boyfriend and she is the one who encouraged her to talk to him in the beginning. She doesn't seem to take anything in her life serious and once her best friend becomes distant she basically loses her mind, talk about dependency. Her best friend and her boyfriend are like totally the American dream couple right(barf) it's so cliche and there is not even a sprinkle of diversity.
Definitely a sleeper gem! Hilarious moments throughout and refreshing to see such a female-driven film :)

Can't believe I wasted 2 hours of my life watching this awful film. No likeable characters and very vulgar script. No redeeming qualities what so ever.

Don't get me wrong, I love our first world, but seriously the writers couldn't show at least one of them with some kind of employment to help get them through school? Zero substance here even for a "comedy?"; what genre was this film supposed to be in?

My mom recommended this movie to me. I didn't realize until I was watching it that she wanted confirmation that it was as horrible as she thought it was. This movie was bad, but I couldn't turn it off and it was good background noise while I practiced my crochet stitches. My boyfriend caught the last two minutes of the movie and he said, "woah that was terrible."

The film was a joke in itself, the beginning start off slow and the middle was ok and then the ending just went flat... was expecting more than that!! Worst comedy I've ever seen!

As a young lady myself I find the movie quite interesting and realistic. It is practically what happens amongst us; the gossips, the fun, the crushing, the secret lies...I think it is a wonderful movie to pass time with.

I only watched this movie because Netflix recommended it after watching Deadly Switch (another snooze fest). I watched for an hour waiting for something to happen. Sadly, nothing ever did. 😬😬😬😬😬

82 minutes wasted from my already terrible life. I thought this was some kind of cheesy thriller movie where the best friend becomes jealous of the new boyfriend and starts killing people....the only thing that died here was a few of my brain cells. I would give it 0 stars if that were an option. I felt like I was watching a lifetime movie and was hoping at least for some girl-on-girl action. I'll just stick to porn. Storyline is non-existent...just like my sex life. I'd rather listen to my wife complain for a week about how I don't flush the toilet or put the seat down than watch this movie ever again. Spoiler alert...it sucks. You'd be better off watching any Lindsay Lohan movie. Better yet, if you're thinking of watching this movie, don't. Go outside, do some meth, literally anything is better than this wack ass movie.
