not enough there to be liked or disliked? The plot didn't go anywhere, but the concept in and of itself was interesting. A lot of the sexualisation of the teenage son was completely unnecessary and added nothing, the sex in general felt like it wasn't really serving any purpose. Overall, pretty underwhelming rip.
