Review of After

After (I) (2019)
2/10
Formula to the Nth Degree
23 July 2019
Always, always a sign of cheap production/script is opening scene w/overhead view of car traveling on roadway. Furthering the formula, for our single mom's daughter being sent off to college, is the dorm scene meeting of her new roomie who of course is the polar opposite of our nice bookish daughter - duh!. Then comes the all too obvious being coaxed into a party instead of studying. Usual redux countless times scenario of alcohol, and girl meets guy which leads to problems & obvious resolution. Classroom scenes were totally fake, e.g. our two lovers arguing an interpretation of a bit of classical lit. Discord w/mom over her independence to do dumb things - predictable. To sell this story our producers only used model looks' actors.
