“Night Blooms” (** out of four) was a languid melodrama about a troubled young girl (Jessica Clement) who begins in an affair with her best friend’s dad (Nick Stahl) but this obviously leads to moral/personal/legal consequences for the both of them as they both finds themselves at a crossroads in their life over what to do. Shallow and predictable story of young lust and rebellion and moral choices doesn’t go deep enough to carry much power or charge. Clement is good in the lead but her character is awfully aloof and obtuse.
