I love toxic romance movies. Also this cast is stacked. Somehow I was rooting for all of them to end up together

one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. I hated the amateur, handheld direction. I hated the story because it glorified cheating. lila was the best character. justice for her!! also, the movie didn’t even have a real ending, which irritated me after wasting an hour of my life on this “movie.” since there was no ending, the story and its main conflicts weren’t even resolved. I also hated the soundtrack. they used music that sounded like the music that was in youtube videos I watched when I was a kid. the opening song sounded just like “summer smile” by silent partner lol. one last gripe I had with the movie was the acting. I thought for such a skilled cast they could pull off the weak script, but I was wrong. I would NOT watch this movie again, and I certainly don’t recommend it.
