Plot
17-year-old Noah moves into a wealthy new home after her mother marries billionaire William Leister. She struggles to adjust to the change and immediately clashes with her new stepbrother, Nick, who is involved in street racing and has a rebellious streak.
Their relationship slowly shifts from hostility to a growing attraction, and despite knowing it is wrong, they start seeing each other in secret. As things heat up between them, Noah begins receiving threatening messages. It is eventually revealed that her abusive father, Jonás, who was thought to be dead, is alive and out for revenge.
Jonás kidnaps Noah and demands a ransom. Nick teams up with the police to find her, leading to a car chase that ends with Jonás being killed. Even though their relationship is discovered and their parents disapprove, Nick and Noah decide to stay together.

Reception
Lucas Hill-Paul of Daily Express rated the film 2 out of 5 stars, considering that it might be "Prime Video's trashiest venture yet, but it at least arrives with a self-aware wink and two likable leads".[9] John Serba of Decider.com gave My Fault a negative review, deeming it to be "an atrocious movie", with the characters being otherwise "insipid and rudimentary".[10]
My Fault became Amazon Prime Video's most popular film worldwide in 2023.[11] The movie remained in the top 5 the following year in 2024 and became the #4 most popular movie on Prime in 2024.[12]
