As someone who didn't read the book I have to say this is a really bad ad for the book (although I hear it's way better than the movie). The writing in the movie is so cheesy and I cringe so hard at the acting especially of the actor potraying the president's son. The actor potraying the prince was way better but I think the lines were also very cheesy so I'm more so impressed with how he managed to act it so well. Regardless after forty minutes I wasn't able to watch the movie, because it was painful to watch so I had to literally consiously decide to pay half the attention so that I wouldn't feel all that cringe. I do believe the book is better but whilst most movies inspire me to read the book this one actually discoured me.

This gives me high school play vibes with lots of nudity, sex and shock value with absolutely no content. I think they thought they will just add a lot of famous last names to the mix and that will do it, but this is really bad. The plot is incredibly not interesting, the actors have very little to work with so no wonder that they come out as doing a bad job. But I don't know if any actor would save it. I was tired after 10 minutes, but I thought I would give it a benefit of a doubt. At 20 minutes something inside of me was breaking. It's clear now that Sam Levinson cares only about aesthetics which is not my kind of tea anyway and not much about content. The dialogs are like an AI idea of what a human dialog should be. This is really embarrassing for everyone involved.
