Tatiana Maslany great
31 May 2015
Ruby (Tatiana Maslany) lives with her younger sister Rose and her ex-NHL player father Ray (Shawn Doyle) who lost everything after a drug conviction in the States after one game. Her mother Lillian takes off to seek fame in L.A. The girls are obsessed with going to Disneyland. Ray's best friend Stuart is a paraplegic from a hunting accident with Ray. She falls for fellow student Will. After finding her father having sex with gym teacher James, she becomes more and more adventurous sexually.

Tatiana Maslany is great and Shawn Doyle is pretty good although she's a little old for the part. The subject matter makes it hard for a young actress to play the part. This is a great showcase for Tatiana and she has some great scenes. The story takes a couple turns designed to shock more than anything naturally flowing. The movie is filled with odd unlikeable characters. I'm not sure what the tone is suppose to be. It's quirky and fun sometimes. Then it's odd and dark. The movie meanders and is a little uneven.
