Oscars 2023: Best Supporting Actor Predictions 'Flamin' Hot' Review: Eva Longoria's Portrait of a Snack Food Creator Barely Satisfies 'Scrambled' Review: Leah McKendrick Is Born a Star in Coming-of-Age Fertility Dramedy After a prologue in which her mother commits suicide during Clare’s childhood, the movie flashes forward to her beleaguered teen life: She hangs with fellow outcasts Meredith (Sydney Park) and June (Shannon Purser) while distancing herself from her scrappy father (Ryan Phillippe), who spends his days scavenging through garbage cans looking for loot. Leonetti (“Annabelle”), working from Barbara Marshall’s screenplay, does a competent job of establishing Clare’s somber world.
Accept the sheer absurdity of the conceit and it’s almost a fun, stupid ride for some of the time, as pure derivative campiness in a bottle has an inherent appeal, but the ingredients don’t gel beyond that.
