This is a well-shot and well-acted film, but despite starting out very promisingly (and having a very short runtime), it runs out of steam much too soon. The mild outrageousness of the premise (being from a horny teenage girl's perspective) only goes so far, because the plot is so miniscule and underdeveloped--once our heroine is shunned at school for saying her popular crush object did something inappropriate (which he did, but publicly denies), nothing else of note happens. The deadpan, humorous view of boring rural life is likable, as are the performers. Still, there's only enough material here for a fine 20-minute short--at feature length (albeit barely), it's stretched very thin, and as a result the end result feels inconsequential. I hope the director and cast go on to bigger and better (-written) things, as they have talent, but this is like a short story printed in extra-large typeface in order to be marketed as a novel.
