Good

Rating: 7/10 (23 August 2014)

For some reason or another, certain movies achieve a reputation as being worse than they actually are. This one tries to be down-to-earth. A new kid must find a guy to date the meanest girl in school, the older sister of the girl he has a crush on, who cannot date until her older sister does. Granted, there is some cheese on display here. The music is dated and some of the dialogue is just too obvious. Nevertheless, there's good stuff here. OK, there are some flaws and I am not too naive to suggest this movie is worthy of an Oscar. My advice would be to watch this movie in full before you judge it. It shows how wrapped up we can become when trying to achieve our goals through others and how it affects people around us.
