Had so much more potential!
Despite strong performances and good direction this film fizzles out and leaves you disappointed with too many unanswered questions.
Her word vs His word
A situation quite similar to real life situations.
Her word is always powerful against his word combined with her crocodile tears. Dudes, always record interactions with a female during courtship or dating or even one night stands, or you'll be in a vulnerable situation where society is ready to crucify you.

Missed opportunity
It could have had more layers and it left me feeling disappointed that opportunities to do so were not taken. In the end, it lacked intensity and ended up being just a cliche story with no surprises.
Predictable and cliched but worth the watch
Jtncsmistad provided a great review. Please do take a look at it.
To add my thoughts I am a fan of Tucci, Sedgwick, and Garofalo. The first half of the movie held my interest and I thought they all gave great performances but the second half of the movie unfortunately was very predictable. I don't mind predictable with an interesting story but in this case even great acting did not save the story.
Worth a watch and definitely watch if you are a teacher.

Love entanglement
Ancient history repeats itself in the modern college campus.Stanley Tucci does a good job of acting.
Did you know
- TriviaStanley Tucci and Addison Timlin had previously worked together a decade before, on the medical drama 3 lbs. (2006). In that show they played father and daughter, while in this film, he's a teacher and she's a student who has sex with him. Timelin said "it was really kind of a hilarious and weird in a very Hollywood kind of way to years and years down the road, be playing someone that's gonna seduce him." She said it was even weirder since the last time they saw each other, she was only 15, but in this film she had to be fully nude in front of him.
