God help us from screenwriters who think that intelligent teen characters can only display their “intelligence” by being really snarky and sarcastic. Can't smart people ever be modest and courteous too, or can they only brim with grating smugness? If they’re so smart, why can’t they carry on a conversation productively instead of just spouting witty epigrams? Anyway, this movie is annoying and mediocre when Charlie Plummer isn’t on screen. He’s the only highlight in this otherwise insufferable and pretentious film.
