Mediocre film, at best

Rating: 3/10 (6 July 2008)

The title character is just silly; it's the result of an adult pretending they are a teenager again, and assuming the teenager has all the knowledge the adult now has -- including a lexicon of snark that is totally inappropriate for the subject matter.
I found myself laughing at the film instead of laughing with it, and if this is the kind of garbage that wins Academy Awards now, I might as well dust off my pen, too, and start writing trashy memoirs about serious moments in my childhood. Maybe I can take 2000s snark and apply it to my childhood memories of the 1970s, too!
The acting is good, which is about all I can say for this film. I really just want the two hours back I wasted watching this trash. It's a shame the Velvet Underground licensed their "Sticking With You" gem for this crappy movie ...
