Synopsis

When her parents divorce, shallow Alexis 'Lexi' Archer moves with mother Kathryn and kid sister Jill to Seattle. Through her only talent, volleyball, she finds one high-school friend: popular, pretty, and together Jennifer 'Jen,' who teaches her some tips to be attractive, but also how to become absurdly thin through excessive dieting which escalates into anorexia.

Even dear old dad Peter back in Chicago can't get her to enjoy anything with calories. She goes on to bulimia: pig-out sessions followed by self-induced vomiting that eventually causes blood to come up too while all muscles, even the heart, are effectively starved.

Kathryn is sensible enough to find out and send her to a clinic, but too weak to have her forced-fed in time, so dad steps in. When Lexi is finally able to go home, she tells Kathryn about Jen's similar skinniness-obsession, with even more tragic consequences.

1/10

Additionally, I felt that the choice of songs in the soundtrack did not complement the themes of eating disorders and mental health issues portrayed in the movie. The music felt out of place at times, failing to enhance the overall viewing experience and failing to evoke the necessary emotions to fully engage with the narrative.
