60For all its faults, the good-natured, quirky humour that this for the most part offers ultimately makes it very hard to dislike.
-
50Insubstantial, predictable and often dull, it's a dismaying move from director Allen Moyle, who displayed a real grasp of pulp energy in 1990's "Pump Up the Volume".
-
50The film exists for its shots of telegenic youngsters busting loose to a bankable soundtrack, and it's the cheesy dialogue, overstuffed plot, and predictable character arcs that come across as superfluous.
-
38If the movie is a lost cause, it may at least showcase actors who have better things ahead of them.

BryanC0A horrible film! mainly a weak attempt to cash in on the whole alt rock movement that was the rage at the time. Totally unrealistic plot.
