    a sad, realistic story of manipulation and exploitation

    I thought this was a surprising, solid movie. Overall, however, definitely something you should skip if you don't have much time. The lead (Jessica Sula) did a great job. I would say the rating on this one is definitely a little low. It was a very realistic and upsetting story.

    Also, for a movie from 2014, I would say this has a really diverse cast, which I thought was nice. I didn't let that affect my rating, though.

    I would say the use of music was rather heavy-handed. I saw another review here that said the same thing, and I definitely agree, which is what made me knock it down from a potential 7 to, unfortunately, a 6.

    Plays on stereotypes.. poor!

    This movie is predictable and plays on typical stereotypes. The storyline is badly constructed and lacks any creativity. Though I accept the events were inspired by true events, the writer/director struggles to piece to together a coercive plot.

    I expect the movie was created on a low budget and that is the only positive I can take!

    Naive girl makes poor decisions out of love

    This movie was very well-done. You can tell that it's an low budget movie but that fact isn't distracting. The characters are well thought out. The portrayal is very believable. There were moments I was laughing, gasping, grinning and sobbing.

    Very well done. I recommend it.

    Very very very poor

    Quality of this film is not very high, the acting is not great at all. Compared to other British films this is shocking. Top it all off the ending was awful.

    Watch it

    Starts kind of slow but this is a really good movie.

    The main character is young, nice and naive, she falls in love with an INSANELY attractive bad boy.

    Dark, twisted and dramatic... I think women will relate to this movie more then men.
