This movie was awful. I swear I posted about it before. If you want to watch this movie but a zillion times better, watch Rushmore, because that's what whoever made this movie wanted to copy off of. The beginning was awkward, the mom was insufferable. The fact that the dad was in jail for tax fraud meant nothing to me and it made Charlie's sadness unbelievable. He should have murdered someone or abused the mom or something. His relationship with Susan was abhorrent and, again, completely unbelievable. What was that, love at first sight? Give me a break. Give me some much more interesting characters and maybe I could see it, a bit. But Susan was wholly one-dimensional. Oooh, she's a teenager, she hates her dad, soooo interesting. Charlie had sex with his first kiss? Please. Charlie was trying really really hard to be Max Fischer and if he were Max Fischer, he wouldn't give it up to such an easy person to figure out. The scene with her dad and Charlie and her dad shooting the boat was stupid too. Why they had to showcase the girl's average singing talent, I don't know.
Don't go see this movie. |

I wanted to see this thinking it would be like the next ferris buller's day off (legendary cult classic) but now..not so much. |
