    A smart and well-observed entry in the genre, is a cut above the usual hijinks.

    The film lacks the comedic charm of "American Pie," but with its dark, hyper-sexualization of teens, it offers an engrossing if not soap opera-esque tale of self-discovery.

    I really enjoyed this film! The village voice are a bunch of snobby hipsters. This is a film that deserves to find an audience. Love the Zach Gilford in this. Great things coming from him.… Expand
