Let Down

Rating: 4/10 (20 January 2010)

I am a big fan of Ellen Page, Drew Barrymore and Alia Shawkat. Naturally I had high hopes that this would be a unique, quirky, indie and generally good movie. What a let down!
Here are the stupid things about this movie:
* endless spirals of clichés including conservative "50's housewife", reconciling food fight, indie boy-crush in band, beauty pageant queen turned roller derby star and mother turning up to championship against all odds (not) * nerdy twig of a girl asked to join a roller-derby team * G rated underage, underwater sex scene SANS condom
NOT compelling!! no no no
