Chemistry is not working

Rating: 3/10 (13 April 2001)

Though I really love teenage high school comedy, this film just didn't work for me. The characters seemed two-dimensional and often acted totally without any motivation, without any heart. Julia Stiles does not work with Heath Ledger, and the Baywatch boy certainly did not work at all as junior casanova. Some of the actors seemed too young, some too old, and the plot was often so cheesy that it was not only hard to swallow, but also hard to bear.
So all in all, we watched three teenage movies that evening and this one was the worst. Unlike American Pie, Mallrats, Road Trip or Ferris Bueller, there is just no good chemistry going in this one. Forget it and get one of the genres jewels mentioned above.
