Almost Adults (2016)
3/10
Cliché, Boring, and Bad Acting
12 April 2017
Warning: Spoilers
As someone who loves the unsolicited project I was expecting something funny and uplifting. Instead we got a cliché story lacking humor, wit, and charm. The characters were one dimensional and terribly acted, which is disappointing knowing the chemistry the two leads had in Carmilla.

Don't even get me started on the "flaming male gay best friend" trope or the fact that we're supposed to believe Mack doesn't already have the slightest idea what Tumblr is, or that you shouldn't have a Tumblr girlfriend when you have a real one.

What could have been the start of an era of funny, happy lesbian movies has fallen flat. There were even points were the cinematography felt like it was recorded on a shaky Iphone. Hopefully they learn from their mistakes and take their hilarious sketches and make something out of them that we can all enjoy.
