I liked this film

Rating: 7/10 (25 October 2012)

This is a rather interesting highschool film. There are very few interesting American films about highschool, though the Japanese made superb films such as Whisper of the Heart, about highschool life. This is certainly not remotely as good as that drama masterpiece, though it shouldn't be compared to it. However, it is certainly one of the best of its genre: the "American Teen Movie" genre.
The interactions between the characters look remarkably realistic, considering that it is a film operating under the traditional rules of Hollywood film-making. Not as realistic as some other films, though, such as the aforementioned Whisper of the Heart, but still remarkably realistic.
I would highly recommend this for someone who likes to remember how highschool life was. Though it is far from being a great film.
