enjoyable, good and not what i expected

Rating: 8/10 (29 September 2004)

a few of my friends, and my girlfriend watched this movie and it came highly recommended.
the acting by the child actors is no t that bad, the story is good and whilst you can guess why the young Evan is suffering flashbacks from pretty early on, the results are good and it does not end up as a dark groundhog day, and doesn't come across with the pretentiousness of something like "Donnie Darko". It's got enough to keep most people going, a few small laughs and things people of the university age can relate too, and something everyone can relate too about events in ones childhood and love and loss.
its a very good teen movie, and the best film i can recommend renting at the moment.
