7/10
Another movie people don't understand
13 September 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I read a few reviews here and it's kinda hilarious how people are upset that the main character doesn't seem to get a redemption arc or grows in any way. I strongly disagree by the way. Zoey Deutch's character is incredibly selfish, so selfish that she is not able to feel empathy for others or even worse that she is not able to have the tought that other people might be affected by here actions in a bad way.

Now for the ending: After everything is revealed and everyone hates her, she again starts to just think about herself. I am so bad. I learned this and that. I need therapy. And then ultimately: i need to fix rverything gor me and get my redemption. Thats why she writes that sorry speech and heads to the public stage. But there is her true redemption while listening to rowans side and opinions. This is the first time that she feels real empathy and accepts the fact that rowan ia better off without her. She finally acted unselfishly.
