This plot is so toxic for teenage girls.

this movie was HOT garbage. "Catfishing is okay, you'll get the boy in the end"

imagine if sierra was a guy. this would literally be a creepy thriller movie, not marketed as a high school love story. she literally sexually assaulted jamie and posted very private things about veronica and was forgiven because she’s not “thin” and she wrote a song.

“To be a teenage girl, and look like this...” As an ugly teenage girl. It’s really not a big deal. Chill girl

The film is messed up... you’re right that’s certainly sexual assault.

I agree that the ending should’ve been her single and made up with her friends. I just feel like they glossed over the problem of catfishing and kissing him without consent. It’s just too much.

I feel bad for the actress she literally got casted for being “ugly”

i love how dylan always finds a 30-year old man who doesn't belong in the movie

B-but Sierra kissed him without consent though. How in the world is that romantic in any way possible?

I would've liked the movie if it was from veronica's perspective she was the only one that had any kind of character growth

How do Veronica and her friends think Jamie is a loser? He's the quarterback of the football team...

Sierra is not even ugly. She’s pretty in a normal, girl-next-door way. The whole drama of her being “ugly” because she’s just a little overweight is ridiculous and not buyable at all.

The storyline? 0/10 The soundtrack? 11/10

This movie romanticized and stereotype a lot of serious issues. It's a mystery why is it so famous.

Pro tip: when you’re apologizing, don’t make it about you. “Sorry I suck so bad” isn’t a decent apology. That’s just guilt tripping by being down on yourself, making it about you and not what you did. If the self deprecation bit is genuine because you feel like you’re a sucky person for doing bad things, and you need that to be a part of the apology to express the shame you feel - mention it after taking responsibility and apologizing for the things you actually did wrong. Own up to the consequences of your actions, don’t victimize yourself. “Sorry I was a bad friend, and did those things. I suck” is worlds better, and even that’s half-assed and only just passable.

I was talking to a friend who wasn't understanding why I thought this movie was disgusting. She thought it was cute... I just said "Ok- switch the genders." "Oh". Yeah. Nothing about this movie is ok... I was actively rooting against SB the entire time.

i love that 80% of Dylan’s future plot predictions are about murder

actually, as a teenage girl, it’s very common to take pics in a school bathroom no matter what the lighting is like lol

Dylan's idea of killing Veronica so Sierra can use her dead body to trick Noah makes a more interesting plotline than what this movies actually plot is...

The ONE thing that just made me so angry was how entitled Sierra was. I can’t shake that the girl who has been so mistreated/misunderstood has such a superiority complex.

Sierra: I’m a stakler, catfisher and a liar. Dude: You’re EXACTLY my type.

Imagine If the genders were switched

I mean I get Veronica’s reaction when the “dumped over DM” picture gets exposed because it’s something she confided in Sierra which shows the bond they have, and Sierra breaks her trust. But the rest of the school’s reaction is just utter bs

i love how dylan's getting more mad at the football inaccuracies than how shitty the movie is lmao 💀

YO this movie is honest to God SOOO CREEPY! if sierra was a dude this movie would be marketed as a psychological horror movie since they end up together

"Why is she taking pictures in the bathroom?" You've clearly never been in a high school girls bathroom

I've never hated a protagonist so much. 🤦‍♀️

What are you talking about? Doing illegal activities together is always the best way to bond

if veronica got the guy in the end instead, maybe this movie wouldn’t be burning garbage

I hated this movie, especially Sierra, she’s a terrible person! I might have liked it better if the ending had been different but Sierra did not deserve to end up with Jamie... she catfished him! I don’t understand how this is supposed to be romantic, and I especially don’t understand why Jamie likes her... it’s ridiculous. I did like Veronica’s character arc, and Sierra’s best friend but that’s about all I liked. Felt really sorry for Jamie throughout the movie... that ending tho... it’s just infuriating.

I hate how adults who write high school girls make them super shallow, vapid, and petty. Like no actual high school population would dump on the girl who got hacked and someone tried to expose her in front of everyone. She’d be pitied, but Sierra would go down as “that one crazy bitch” in that high schools history.

how are they gonna make a bomb ass looking movie and a bomb ass soundtrack and completely BOMB the actual plot???

There are two things Dylan wants from life in every video: a murder and/ or a lesbian love story. Every. Video.

sierra was quite possibly my least favorite character in this entire movie. she should've ended up single. 🙄

8:45 COMPLETELY relate. The first convo I had with my boyfriend after we first started dating was me asking if he thought goldfish had teeth. I then excused myself to go to the bathroom and proceeded to scream. A woman literally pounded on my stall door and asked me if I was in trouble. 2 years later and this man is still with me :')) What a saint.

"Why would people abandon her when she's the victim of a guy being an asshole" Welcome to real life Dylan

1. Catfished him by talking to him without correcting him about who she is 2. Got the girl he thinks she is to fake webcam with him 3. PRETENDED TO BE DEAF and faked sign language 4. Convinced the other girl to go on a date with him, then followed them everywhere and listened in so she could feel like she was on the date too? 5. SEXUALLY ASSAULTED HIM by switching with the other girl and kissing him while his eyes were closed 6. Ignores/bails on her one real friend 7. Gets pissed off when the other girl kisses the guy, even though SHE SET IT UP FOR THEM TO BE FAKE-REAL DATING 8. Decides to get revenge on this other girl she's supposedly been friends with by being nasty and publicly humiliating her, doing so by interrupting the football game and ruining it for not only the guy she likes but also everyone else there in general 9. Loses everyone because of her own actions, so she sobs about how she's the victim here because HER life is so hard because she's not thin. I get that societal beauty standards send the message that like you're ugly/unworthy if you don't look a certain way, I do, but nothing that happened happened because of the way she looks. Everything that happened was because of her actions and the horrible things she did and the way she treated people. You can't do a bunch of awful things and then bring that up as an excuse and try to claim you're the real victim here because of how you look. So she... 10. Learned NOTHING about treating other people like objects for her own selfish benefit, lying, manipulating people, taking responsibility for her own actions 11. Is STILL manipulative as shit when she makes up with her best friend by doing this shitty, fake apology designed to get sympathy. "I'm sorry I suck." That's not a real apology. 12. Everybody just forgives her for no reason, she didn't even apologize to Veronica or Jamie, she gets her friends back, she gets the guy, and everybody lives happily ever after. Also, there was NO plan. There was no way for this to work out or for her to think it would work out except for her getting caught/having to come clean. Like she convinces this girl to webcam him, then go on a date with him (not to mention that at this point he thinks she's deaf...😑), so what was her plan? Why did she get that girl to go on a date with him, how was that supposed to help her get together with him? I guess when a lot of people catfish, they don't have a plan and they have to make it up as they go along, but there was no motivation for her to do that. There was no reasoning behind it. How was she expecting that to work out? I just don't get it. And she's an awful person who does awful things that she excuses with this perceived victimhood, she doesn't grow at all, doesn't say sorry, doesn't seem like she IS sorry for what she did, doesn't take any accountability, and gets forgiven and gets everything she wants. Hooray... But the soundtrack WAS good, that's about it.

“noah kavinsky” felt that

The frustrating thing is that the actress that plays Sierra isn't ugly, she's actually very pretty. She's just plus sized. The only plus sized character is both the "ugly", "not pretty girl" who also has a victim complex. What a terrible message to send to preteens who like this garbage

I never get embarrassed with my life, but I get severe secondhand embarrassment from shows and movies and have to pause them then come back to them. This movie gave me the worst embarassment. It took me 4 hrs to finish it lmao.

The soundtrack was wasted on this trash of a movie

Did anyone else feel really bad for Veronica at the end?

Veronica is a great actress. She played Alaska in the show based on the book "Looking for Alaska" and after her performance in that, I noticed how talented she actually was at acting xD.

confusingly attracted to dylan when he talks about football because i'm a simp

If this movie was about a fat dude catfishing a pretty girl AND that kissing scene happened ... I wonder what the reactions would've been

She isn’t even ugly she has no excuses.

People need to understand that just bcoz your life isn't great or bcoz u faced trauma that doesn't give you the right to do mean and bad and illegal things.

One of the few movies that does an outstanding job of actively making you hate their main character 110%.

“They didn’t show the first conversation between Sierra and Jamie” Dude no, you don’t understand. What we saw WAS the conversation. The WHOLE conversation. If you look at her phone afterwards nothing more was said. Makes this shit show even worse.

I love how he only got really pissed with the sport inaccuracies

"You're exactly my type" after you fell in love with her when you thought she was a skinny blonde cheerleader?? uh huh

Watching people react to this movie is better than watching the actual movie

“Dude is lifting weights in his bed room,and your telling me he can’t do a couple hurdles without throwing up” Me: “I mean,maybe he threw up because Sierra did.”

The kissing scene was so creepy...

Sierra isn’t even ugly, she’s just fat. Then all the other female characters are wearing their pretty makeup and clothes. If she really hated the way she looked so much, she could have easily done something. This movie is all about body shaming, catfishing, and unrealistic depictions of how douchebagy everyone is in high school.

I’m 13 and I used to think this was cute. I’m so glad I now know how to identify red flags when I see them now. Especially with the copious amounts they put in these Netflix teenage romcoms.

She was being so evil throughout the movie and she never genuinely accepted that. At the end she always defended herself to get pity so people forgave her for the way she acted. Ew. She was the villain and Veronica was the hero. She changed into a better person.

Jamie: You are my type! Me: Oh! So your type is liars who catfish, stalk and violate you! Good to know!

What bothers me most is that they push the narrative that Sierra is ugly. She. Is. Not. She weighs a little more but that is NOT an equivalent to being ugly, what the f?

As a person who was bullied in middle and high school, when Sierra did her whole "it's easy for you when you don't look blah blah blah" I was like "FUCK YOU." She's like the female equivalent of a 'nice guy'.

Tbh Sierra is crazy , she deserves a restraining order imo . The most realistic ending would have been Veronica and Jamie getting together and Sierra getting in to her dream uni. How are they trying to romanticize catfishing , simply because she's not your typical pretty and popular girl ?I was really looking forward to this movie but I am very disappointed.

I’m so relieved i am not alone in thinking this movie isn’t necessarily «good » I got mad when she got her happy end. It wasn’t deserved at all! She catfished an innocent guy but hey we’re okay with it because she doesn’t have it easy in school? Alright then 😂

I love how Dylan turns this into a Thriller every opportunity he gets.

The only plot point I liked in this movie was the fact the “mean girl” became best friends with the protagonist instead of being a one dimensional bully that ended up getting some comeuppance by the end. It happened pretty early on too, they eliminated that popular girl bully element right out the gate. I really liked it when she was dumped and all emotional, she went straight to Sierra in the hall and hugged her

the world: Dylan in every single movie he sees: Is she gonna murder someone?!?!?!

Funny that attractive characters who like people based off of their physical appearance are viewed as shallow, but unattractive characters do it all the time and no one bats an eye

I read a comic, where this scene 17:39 happened to the mc and the Mc had trauma and trust issues for YEARS. And he couldn't even kiss someone without feeling overwhelming dread and nausea. It was so sad damn

the teacher in this film is adele from greys anatomy and her accent is just so sweet 🥺

I was fat and ugly in high school AND I was in orchestra. I dated two guys that were physically waaaayyy more attractive than me. The difference is I had a personality and I went to therapy that also addressed my low self esteem. If she tells her parents that she hates the way she looks and that it's impeding her happiness they should send her to therapy. That's a big deal. This is really damaging to girls who look like Sierra. We have fun, too.

The thing that bothered me most about this movie (besides the catfishing, assault, deaf-faking, and everything phobic jokes) is that at the beginning when Jamey texts her and she's like "Who is this?" and he sends her the picture of his face she doesn't immediately respond with something along the lines of "Sorry, I still don't know who you are." For whatever reason, she just starts talking to him like she knows why he's texting her and she doesn't find out for way too long that he thinks he's texting Veronica. Any normal person would have pretty quickly been like "Who exactly do you think you're texting?" unless they were going for a prank...

Dylan every five minutes, “is she gonna murder him” 💀💀

I love how the movie tries to make us think she is ugly but Shannon Purser is gorgeous

*hey, you catfished me, wanna go to prom?*

I didn’t want her to have a happy ending . She was literally being such a terrible person

17:29 I screamed the exact same word "THAT'S R*PE!!!" so unacceptable.

The fact that he mixed up 'now that's what i call music' and 'everybody hates Chris' is killing me

Why is the plot for dylan always something bout *MURDER* 😂💀

I kinda hate this movie because it's sending a wrong message. Catfishing doesn't end like this and that first kissing was messed up.

this "i hate myself" movie series is literally the funniest thing on youtube. Always enjoy watching you laugh at these movies

The thing is as well is that she's not even ugly tbh, she's just overweight, and that was her entire "redemption" plot. Like girl, I'm fat, but I don't go around using it as an excuse to catfish and humiliate my friends and pretend I'm deaf and stuff.

One thing I hate about Sierra is that she tries to play the victim the whole time even when she gets called out she goes home and yell at her parents about how ugly she is like GURL Also kinda disappointed Dylan didn't know who Loretta Devine was (southern accent lady)

I hate this movie, imagine if it was backwards, fat guy kisses the girl and tricks her and all of those things, is sick, twisted.

No Sierra. Just no. I think that the movie is literally telling us why she IS a loser because damn, girl is a terrible person.

I really don't get Sierra's struggle. At the beginning it seemed like she didn't care about her looks but at the end she's crying that it's hard to "LIVE LOOKING LIKE THIS!!!" Overall her grades are great, she has a friend, she just is desperate for a guys attention

I honestly didn’t like how the whole plot was based on catfishing. I think the plot would be 1000x better if Jamey texted Sierra, but it was just a wrong number (but not a girls number, just like a friends number or something) and Sierra says “oh wrong number” but they continue talking. That way they can develop a relationship not based on lies and the plot can still be based on Sierra can be scared to reveal herself because of what she looks like. Sierra could have tutored Veronica and Veronica could help her with tips on how to talk to Jamey, and learn how to be more confident with herself and her image. Because honestly the lack of self-confidence thing could have been better, but it came across as fake. Sierra did an awful thing and you end up not even rooting for her. And they could even have them meet before the reveal too and have Jamey fall for the real her before he knows she’s the one on the phone and have him tied between these two girls, not knowing they’re the same one. When he finds out it’s her he could be mad because she wasn’t upfront with him and it caused him stress because he thought he had to choose between two girls or whatever.

This movie made me kinda mad like I get that she's not the 'pretty girl' in school or whatever and people treated her bad because of it, but what she did was so wrong so why is she portrayed as some kind of hero at the end?! And Jamey's just gonna forgive and forget that she played him and scammed him so hard?? Then still think she's a good person and date her at the end?? It's so unrealistic and it kinda portrays this kinda next level catfishing in a good light, when it's completely wrong and realistically, the guy would probably never talk to the girl again. urgH I so wanted to like this movie, but it's sO frustrating (ps. Jamey deserved so much better smh) edit: I missed this out of my op but let's not forget she kissed him without consent and went to such far lengths to deceive him. Then proceeded to try and humiliate Veronica, who was trying to help her, because she did something that wasn't her fault. It's effectively Sierra's fault for creating a situation in which Jamey kissing Veronica was bound to happen? I get the message that they're trying to put across with this movie but they could have gone about it in a much better way. Catfishing and deceiving (especially to this extent) and doing things without consent shouldn't be portrayed as things that's going to 'get you the guy' and like after the kiss scene, Sierra was shown so happy with herself, but it's so wrong. urgH idk I think they're unintentionally sending the wrong message.

If this is the bar for ‘ugly girl’ how are the actual teenage girls gonna see themselves??!?

This movie really tried to say "you want a boyfriend? Just catfish him!"

I preferred Veronica tbh

Man I can't stop staring at your teeth, they 're so pretty.

The only person on KZfaq who actually tries to say Noah Centipede’s actual name and still ended up mispronouncing it

“If you don’t love yourself, how the hell are you gonna love someone else?” - RuPaul

SIERRA IS SOOOOO UNLIKABLE WTF. SHE STALKED AND CATFISHED AND DID STUFF THAT IS NOT OK AND PPL ACTUALLY LIKED HER bcs shes smart WTF. worst main character ever.

Here I’ll turn on the reality switch for you guys Ending: Siera gets charged with sexual assault and Jamie gets a restraining order. Veronica apologizes to Jamie and they become good friends. Siera loses all of her friend and doesn’t get accepted into college because of what happened. Everyone els goes to college and pursues their careers while Siera lives with her parents, working in an office job. The end :)

The actress is actually singing the song she wrote. She sings a few lines in the musical episodes of Riverdale and is one of the strongest singers on the show.

His football monologue in the show is giving "The epic highs and lows of high school football" from Riverdale

i wonder why she said she was deaf and not just spoke italian or french. bc she would’ve had the accent of the language so her voice wouldn’t have sounded the same and wouldn’t have been recognizable. also at least with a language she knows there wouldn’t be any awkwardness with her not knowing what she’s saying/doing

Yea I really wanted to like this movie but....it ain’t it

Rewrites: -Jamie and Sierra realize that they really didn’t have that much chemistry. That they have good talks but it’s nothing more than a friendship. He forgives her, but it’s not like he wants to be with her after being lied to. Maybe they actually become very good friends. -Veronica and Jamie end up together, but not because they’re attracted to each other. Because they have a deeper connection. Maybe Jamie sees Veronica for who she truly is.

I was hoping you noticed how solid that handshake was 😂
