Flower (2017)

I bet zoey is the next drew barrymore... She's so cute and the movie is kinda nice.... Just watch it without any expectations or comparisons to other movies out there and you'll enjoy this one.

I feel like Erica was quite a peculiar teenager, but it is understandable considering the fact that she didn't have a father and her mother was always in need of boyfriends. What weirded me out the most was how Erica's sex life started where it shouldn't have. I also hated the easy way she could talk about blackmail. She only realised the seriousness of her actions when her freedom was in question. But, I did have a love-hate relationship with her. I liked her for her strenght of character and the way she didn't care what people thought of her, but I didn't like the fact that that made her do illegal things.

This movie is not for the moralist,or for the one who think what moral is. its a film about teenage life,lack of money,strange family structure,extortion,opposite psychees, curious sexuality and sex as weapon,sisterhood,revenge and avenge and a whole lot of love in this feature in the start it is a girls flick,but it become more male friendly after a while. it is a very funny story,i giggled a lot,and the sad story are also there,but its well hidden and engulfed. some might find that a pity,well...i dont... the main cast are more than fine,everyone has their own kind of aura brought into this movie.. there are also something nice and warm with the use of light,the atmosphere becomes special.maybe it is the green sprayed californian hillsides in the background, i dont know. the end of the film, i dont know,couldve been better but maybe a sequel... will i tell my wife to see this movie....definately

'FLOWER': Three and a Half Stars (Out of Five)An indie comedy-drama about a troubled teenage girl who bonds with her mentally unstable step-brother, and helps him stalk a teacher that he says sexually assaulted him years earlier. The film stars Zoey Deutch, Joey Morgan, Kathryn Hahn, Tim Heidecker and Adam Scott. It was directed by Max Winkler, and it was written by Alex McAulay, Matt Spicer and Winkler (the script was on the Black List of the best unproduced screenplays in 2012). It's received mixed to negative reviews from critics, and it got a limited indie theatrical release at the Box Office. I enjoyed most of it. A troubled and very sexually active teen, named Erica (Deutch), forms a unique friendship with her potential step-brother, Luke (Morgan). She finds out that he claims he was sexually abused, years earlier, by a frequent bowler at the bowling alley her and her friends hangout at, named Will (Scott). Erica and her friends then devise a plan to get revenge on Will, for what he did to Luke, and hopefully prevent him from doing it to anyone else. Things don't go as planned though, and Erica and Luke quickly find themselves in a lot of trouble. The first two acts of the movie are really interesting and involving, and I actually cared about the characters and was intrigued by where the story was taking them. Then the final act of the film gets kind of cheesy and totally unrealistic. The conclusion is just too satisfying, and it doesn't seem true to the rest of the movie (in my opinion). I really like everything leading up to it though, especially Deutch in the lead (she gives a really strong performance in it). I also really like the supporting cast; Hahn, Scott and Heidecker are all really talented and totally likable actors. I just wish the movie had a different (better) ending.
