The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Boucher, as director Trogi at 17, narrates this autobiographical account of leaving high school, losing it and trying to avoid awful career choices like those his dad made.Opens with him berating the suits on the human resources committee, where he is the voice of youth, about their strategy but we lose track of that.His family (Italian immigrant, garage booze making, accordion player dad, weight loss freak mum and reclusive sister) are more stressful than the friends he starts a petty crime wave with. Events conspire to break up his relationship with his prom date, who is about to put out and get him thrown in the slammer but things end appealingly.We've seen most of this before (American Pie, American Graffiti etc.) but this occasionally has a harder edge (Boucher expressing his contempt for his dad's life) and it's delivered with some charm and conviction. Professional finished.
