Synopsis:

From IMDb: “A former valedictorian quits her reporter job in New York and returns to the place she last felt happy: her childhood home in Connecticut. She gets work as a lifeguard and starts a dangerous relationship with a troubled teenager.”

Poster: C-

Review: I don’t really think a swimsuit-clad Kristen Bell is going to sell this film and other than its fitting the title, I don’t see that the poster is saying anything especially special.

Trailer: C

Review: I like Kristen Bell. She’s a funny actress and I don’t mind putting funny actresses into dramatic roles. However, putting her into the role of a 29-year-old arrested-development teenager gives her enough room to stretch as an actress and the surrounding trailer doesn’t suggest the film mines any new concepts.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
