This actually sounds really interesting. I can't tell if her boyfriend has botox or not and it's really creeping me out. :rip:

Jersey boy for life!
Against my better judgment (between the middling reviews and the manipulative trailer), I saw this. It did so much right that I really, really wanted to like it... but I just could not get into the romance. At all. Chloe Moretz and Jamie Blackley were good on their own, but they had no chemistry, though not for lack of trying on their part. They had to spit out dialogue so wretched that even Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone couldn't make it sound romantic. The pacing was also terrible; I can't count how many times the sudden transitions between Mia's flashbacks and the hospital pulled me right out of the film. And Mia and Adam's romance was such a big part of the film that it sank everything else.

Which was a shame, because when it wasn't focusing on their relationship, it was actually pretty good. I loved the parents; Mia's relationship with them was a million times more interesting than her relationship with Adam, and I wish it was that that the film focused on. It was shot beautifully too, and Stacy Keach stole the whole show. It was one of those movies that got everything right except the parts that mattered the most.

Full review here.

Forget about the bloody gods and lsiten to what I'm telling you
This honestly doesn't interest me at all. Even the plot sounds similar to other movies I've seen (Soul Survivor immediately comes to mind) Plus, there's only so many ways to do limbo. I do like Chloe and, while he didn't have a whole lot to do in it, Jamie's performance was one of the few good things about Prowl, but this just looks really lame

So hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry, for everything that I've done
But when I call you never seem to be home
