Brooke Palsson plays a very credible teenager Michelle, with clever subtle touches in every single moves and situations and the plot is ok, although a bit limited. The main problem is that Michelle is actually fine. She is balanced and despite some normal mistakes one would expect from a teenager, she actually behaves quite well, so her minor struggles are not so interesting. The character who has huge issues is her Mom, but we only get a clue about her real motives quite late in the movie. Her intriguing persona and the reason for her obsession and lack of confidence as a Mom is not sufficiently explored. So the movie ends up a bit dull. If it were not for Palsson performance, it would have been a fail.
