A decent high school drama that goes through the motions, but struggles to add anything unique. The setup is interesting, with two insomniacs hooking up and trying to make the best of their affliction, but the film doesn't fully commit to its premise, adding extra drama along the way.
The performances are solid but not too memorable. The presentation is pleasant without being too remarkable. It's a pleasant enough film, but there are so many similar ones that you need to bring a little extra to get noticed, and that's what this one is lacking. It's decent drama filler, but nothing more.
