a movie that tries not to be a movie we've all seen before

Rating: 4/10 (16 April 2007)

I didn't expect much from this movie, it had an "OK" trailer and it's hard to say it was awful. It had its moments but just got too boring after a while. I thought the characters in the story were rather dull. Of course, you have the kid who is as intimidating as a bucket of water and the "girl next door" who they try to pull off as a "hottie." I have seen better, by far.
The one positive thing I can say about this movie is it didn't give the dozens of teenagers in the movies the chance to scream at every part. Like every other unoriginal movie that is out these days. So if I give it some positive feedback, it would be it was not labeled as a "teen movie" but did have its flaws. This movie really took time out to introduce the characters and the situations way too much that it came out with a dull ending. Of course everything was all happy.
5 out of 10
