Starts out very weird, gets a little more charming
So this ugly high school chick and her friend gaslight a clueless boy who they've been stalking for a while into thinking they used to be lovers, by telling him he has "amnesia" after he bangs his head in an accident. It's pretty stupid that he believes this for even just a second, but that's the story. Ok, granted he is sceptical, but still. Anyway, I did not really enjoy this film. I know the whole scenaro is supposed to be low-key humorous and quirky or whatever, but the characters just aren't likeable, especially that main girl and her manipulative ways. It gets a bit better in the second half, where a few genuinely heartfelt moments occur, for example when the other girl meets her divorcee father for an afternoon together, or when some real romance develops. But neither this family, nor the romance part is explored any further, leading to a pretty unsatisfactory ending.score 5/10
