I didn't like it and I was surprised because I thought it would be interesting but it's so cliché about girls and the main actresses just don't fit with the social backgrounds of their characters. It ends up being so cool and girly and that's a pity because it could really have been way better. Probably lacks of directing and lacks a strong view of this story.
