No grade for this one–I started it but was not interested. It’s “Romeo and Juliet” for 20-year-olds who are more used to social media than movies. At the beginning, the entire story was being told through texts, Instagram photos, and posted videos. I’m sure it was going to continue that way through the entire movie. It’s too bad I can’t find a trailer for it, you could immediately tell whether you could parse through it.
As I reflect on it more, it maybe highlights how relationships formed through social media are more shallow than in real life? Though I doubt that is the message of this remake.
