About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a light, feel-good teen revenge rom-com with plenty of smiles and schemes; Not for you if you need edgy satire or clever laughs, similar to Mean Girls.
Pros: charming teen comedy; fun revenge setup; easy feel-good vibe | Cons: bland humor at times; unsatisfying ending; lacks satirical edge
