Anne Hathaway and Nicholas Galitzine try and do their best with the adapted source material that ambivalently centers on a 40 year old divorced LA mom getting romantically involved with a British boyband popstar 16 years her minor. It also does little to elevate itself to film form with basic cinematography, an editing style of split-screen montages and its decision to bizarrely invest a large amount of the almost 2 hour run on Galitzine performing pop songs as his character. This leaves the script with no choice but to rush the conflict and outsource it to every single character that isn't actually them. In the end you're left wondering if Hathaway's problem was ever really their age gap or is her character's parenting situation just very specific.
