a light movie but qualified

Rating: 8/10 (8 May 2005)

An interesting movie I should say. It is a story about two teenagers who have different backgrounds, or I should say exactly the opposite. Matthew Kidman (Emile Hirsch), a 18-years old nerd-achievement-oriented, started to step up to the whole new world when Danielle (Elisha Cuthberg) came as "the girl next door".
As a teenager movie, obviously, it contains most of the "ingridients" teenagers need. From the sweet romance date to the porn stars convention in Las Vegas, it has mixed pretty well as a teenager-comedy-romantic movie.
Play the role of Danielle, Elisha Cuthberg has become a big plus in judging this movie. I would say she looks fantastic although her role play does not need any spectacular acting skills to perform. Overall, she can bring you to the stage that you feel you would like her. Therefore, I give her credits for that.
In my opinion, The Girl Next Door worth to watch and one thing that stays in my mind after watching this movie is "always know if the juice worth the squeeze".
