My Fault: London, based on Wattpad sensation Culpa Mia, is the story of 18-year-old Noah who falls into a forbidden romance.
“I need to stay out of trouble.”
“And I’m trouble, right?”
1. ENEMIES-TO-LOVERS
“It’s probably best we stay out of each other’s ways.”
“Works for me.”
Noah begins her new life resenting the “infamous” Nicholas Leister, her arrogant and rebellious new stepbrother. He’s cheeky, dismissive, and wastes no time in calling her an “unwanted guest” in his home. What follows is a series of sharp-tongued squabbles laced with undeniable sexual tension, as the two clash at every turn. Eventually, their animosity gives way to attraction, culminating in a familiar yet addictive enemies-to-lovers arc.
While the plot leans into clichés, the chemistry between the leads keeps viewers hooked, making it a guilty-pleasure watch for fans of forbidden romance.
2. BAD BOY CLICHES
Nick fights… And races… Any other bad boy clichés?”
Yes, Nicholas is rich and rude, with a troubled past that continues to cast a shadow over his present. He’s entangled in a dangerous world of gangs, underground street races, and illegal fights. However, this version of Nick is noticeably milder and more restrained compared to his counterpart in the original Spanish adaptation, Culpa Mía.
While Noah has spent most of her life trying to escape violence and chaos, Nick seems to attract it effortlessly. Their contrasting worlds set the stage for inevitable conflict.
3. STEAMY SCENES
Like a typical young adult romance, My Fault dutifully delivers steamy and high-stakes encounters. Whether it’s a heated moment exchanged during an illegal street race or a forbidden kiss shared in the secrecy of their parents’ lavish swimming pool, the film leans heavily into these “spicy’ scenes to fuel the tension between Noah and Nick.
4. ADRENALINE RUSH
The film is packed with adrenaline-fueled elements like illegal street races, underground fights, high-speed car chases, kidnappings, wrestling matches, and multiple near-death encounters. It doesn’t hold back when it comes to action.
My Fault blends romance, thriller, and suspense. Its fast-paced plot keeps the viewers on the edge.
5. UK VS. SPANISH VERSION
The movie is a spin-off of Spanish movie Culpa Mia. While both share the same story, the British version has its own fresh plotline with new scenes. It ascertains that the movie is not just a copy of the original.
While the Spanish version stressed more on the sexual attraction between the couple, the British version makes the affair an organic one, starting with their friendship. Further, it offers a first-hand account of Noah’s past traumas.
6. NOAH
She is a year older than the Spanish version of Noah portrayed by Nicole Wallace. Notably, she is a better driver than Nick. She also appears more calm and composed than her Spanish counterpart. However, she lacks the innocent charm that Nicole’s character possessed.
7. NICK
Nick appears more mature and considerate than the Spanish version. He is much softer towards his parents. Moreover, unlike his Spanish counterpart, he manages to engage in an affair with his stepsister right under the nose of his father and stepmother without making them too suspicious.
8. THE PLAYERS
English actress and singer Asha Banks, known for her role in The Good Girl’s Guide to Murder, plays the role of Noah.
Matthew Broome, seen in period drama The Buccaneers, plays the character of Nick Leister. Further, actor Ray Fearon, who is known for his role in Harry Potter spinoff series of Fantastic Beasts, has portrayed the role of Nick’s father William.
9. WHERE TO WATCH?
The movie is exclusively available on Amazon Prime. It was released quite strategically on 13th February, one day before Valentine’s Day.
10. WHAT’S NEXT?
The movie is based on a book trilogy by Mercedes Ron. Hence, it is expected to be followed by 2 more parts- Your Fault and Our Fault. However, no confirmation of the UK version of these sequels are out yet. The first two parts of the Spanish version were released before the English version. Further, its third part (Culpa Nuestra) is already in post-production.
