    It seems as though a writing team outlined the whole movie with plenty of characters and situations and simply forgot to add the actual writing and, more importantly, the heart. You'd never want to see this movie a second time, like you would a John Hughes movie or even 10 Things I Hate About You or Can't Hardly Wait. Teegarden's character is so flat through so much of the movie, only to open up a bit at the very end. And her parents?? Hank from Breaking Bad was so underutilized, and when he does his "bad thing", the wife has no reaction. She can either be pissed or supportive, but she can't do nothing! It's a cop out. Small point, but come on!… Expand

    Garbage absolute garbage. The camera man was never able to keep the camera in the same place. The only thing worse is the story. Unless you are a 13 year old girl avoid this movie like the sin that it is.

    A movie that's so anachronistically mushy and awkward, it earns extra credit simply for being so innocent.

    A good-hearted, perfectly watchable bonbon.

    A would-be tween-oriented hit so scrubbed and sanitized and not worthy of paying attention to that it can barely be said to exist at all.
