What happens when you try to cover 12 different genres in 1 movie

Absolutely no one:
Frankie Chen: What if I took 20 minutes from 12 different movie genres and smashed them all together into one film?
Watching this movie gave me such whiplash because it hurtles without warning from satire to teen romance to family drama to coming of age story to horror movie.....Not to mention the countless movie cliches like "prodigal son breaks from family to pursue his dreams," "student tutors classmate and they fall in love," "girl and boy have a romantic boat ride on a lake and of course both fall into the water," etc. Thought this was gonna be like Our Times but the male lead is even more problematic and the female lead even more hopeless. :(
It's entertaining to watch, but that's pretty much all the positive I can point out.
