The two actors are solid as are the support crew. Unfortunately the script is beyond unbelievable from the slutty bartender who over serves to the protagonist who blatantly ignores every red flag.
The first test of any script:is it believable? Could I see myself in this situation? Would this be a logical progression? Could you, as a reasonable educated person, walk out of a bar and give a ride to a homeless person? Then buy them papers for weed they don't have, go to a house at 1 am and wake up someone's parents to get the weed he thought was in his backpack? Would you then drive to a drug house for more weed after the dude bummed money for papers and smokes cause not only does he not have the weed promised, but "lost" his wallet. The guy show no sexual interest except to say we'll have a good time later.
It asks too much of the audience. The leap of faith is too wide to grasp and watch with any sense of empathizing for the character.
