I was a bit hesitant to see this film. I was aware of its bad reviews, but I wanted to check it out for Florence Pugh's performance. I've seen Garden State and Wish I Was Here, and I wasn't a big fan of either film. I love Zach Braff, but I think he's a bad director, A Good Person doesn't change my opinion on that.
For the plot, it stretched out too long. There was no need to make it just over 2 hours. An hour and a half would be better. I also didn't particularly care about the characters. I've been scratching my head over the after effects of a certain teen character's actions. It makes no sense to me.
Florence Pugh is the only good thing about the film. If a different actor was cast as Allison, the much needed talent wouldn't have worked. Morgan Freeman was ok. I wasn't wowed by his performance. And everybody else was average at best.
To sum it up, this film may be a waste of time for you.
