In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
View MoreFugeuse is a failed Canadian attempt to be a dark and dangerous look into the life of a suburban teenage girl gone bad. Ludivine Reding shows off her assets as she attempts to show any signs of being an actress. An ornament at most, Ludivine's "deer in headlights" quality is the only saving grace of this series. Her sexy ignorance is attractive yet sickening. You want to see this "little girl" fall from the little grace she has in order to justify her story. Little girls should not play with matches, let alone be away from their parents until they are old enough to fly on their own. The mean streets of Montreal at best looks like a unorganized day at Disney World than anything remotely like the mean streets of Los Angeles, Detroit or Chicago. The rough lifestyle and the mean streets they try to showcase falls short to anything real or traumatizing. The locations are too clean to be real. Much like most of the cast, they are hard to believe let alone accepting as dark characters. The taboo of the good girl next door becoming the dirty Jezebel is the only thing that makes this series watchable. Her journey at best is predictable and at sometimes laughable. Her post rape scene was hard to consider dramatic. She looked more hung over than being manic from her ordeal. In the end, the moral of the series is not taken seriously. The audience is here for the eye candy and nothing else. Fugueuse is a recycled Havoc (2005). If Young & Beautiful (2013) and the Client List (2010) had a unwanted baby, it would look a little like Fugueuse. If you want a R rated version of a Lifetime movie, Fugueuse is perfect. If you are looking for something raw and original, it falls flat.
