An adaptation of a John Green novel, about a boy's hopeless crush on his manic pixie dream girl neighbor, so I was already braced not to like it, but one of the boy's friends is truly awful.  And of course the dialogue is full of lines that no human, especially a teen human, would ever say, and not in a fun way like in Juno or Napoleon Dynamite.  Still, the hate-watch aspect bumps this up from an F+ or a D-.  Jake Schreier directed.
