Wished it was braver

As a youth movie it's nice but underwhelming. There's the very typical family issues, and I'm actually just glad there's not a huge focus on studies or school life. This movie felt very freeing, in a way.

As LGBT commentary, however, it's so coded (censored?) that it can't make much of an impact. But it really is an interesting take on the fake dating trope, and I love how friendship-focused it was.

The ending is a little abrupt — I wish we had seen more of the two families — but I think it wraps things up decently.
