Quartile rating: 5.5/10 · 1 rating
A secret admirer's crush on a high school athlete takes a fatal turn.
Crush (2013) is a fairly generic teen thriller that hits familiar genre beats without distinguishing itself. The premise of a dangerous obsession is well-worn territory, the plot offers few surprises, the acting is serviceable at best, and the cinematography is competent but unremarkable. Its ending follows predictable thriller conventions without offering a memorable twist. The film sits squarely in below-average territory across the board, consistent with its modest reputation.
