Overview
The incredibly spoiled and overprivileged students of Camden College are a backdrop for an unusual love triangle between a drug dealer, a virgin and a bisexual classmate.
As I was watching this movie, I couldn’t help but think that the feel reminded me of Pulp Fiction. Sure enough, the director had collaborated with Tarantino on that movie. It didn’t take long to realize that this story is told in a very unique way, and I very much enjoyed the structure. The problem? None of the characters were that interesting. Couple that with knowing how the movie is going to end and you end up with a high floor, low ceiling kind of movie.
