Very well executed

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Not a great movie. Maybe if you're a pre-teen, but not for adults. BTW, thanks for instilling in my children that it's okay to be disrespectful and rebellious toward authority figures, basically with no consequences. And please tell me why Rafe put the lighter to the sprinkler system immediately without letting the principal respond to his request. Oh that's right because it made for a colorful silly dance scene, to heck with common sense! Skip this one.... watch the Diary movies again, instead.

When I first watched this movie I didn't really think it would be up to much but I was very wrong. Not only was the movie enjoyable, but it had a great soundtrack and good actors playing the parts. There was also a sad part which is so unexpected (unlike most kids movies these days).The movie involves a boy named Rafe and revolves around his day to day struggles at middle school hence the title "Middle School". The movie incorporates cartoons with real life because Rafe likes doodling and has a wild imagination. Although this movie is more for kids, there are quite a few adult jokes throughout the movie that will most likely confuse kids.There is also a reasonable amount of mild swearing so just keep that in mind if viewing with younger children. The movie is very inspiring and makes you love the world a little more. If only more directors caught on to this kind of movie.

Got my beautiful wife to watch something with a happy ending. We both love horror films, but I'm a bit burnt out with the usual possession/grizzly killing spree preformed by a slow walking killer that eventually kills everyone by the end of the movie and there is rarely a horror movie with a happy ending. So my wife and I agreed on this movie and it was simply delightful. Funny, witty and the acting was good...a bit too goofy at sometimes, but all in all, well worth watching. Don't know who I hated more in this movie...the evil principal or the dirt bag boyfriend of the kids mother. I'll let you decide. I very much recommend seeing this film. Peace my minions.

Imaginative quiet teenager Rafe Katchadorian is tired of his middle school's obsession with the rules at the expense of any and all creativity. Desperate to shake things up, Rafe and his best friends have come up with a plan: break every single rule in the school and let the students run wild. Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life is a film that i was expecting to hate since the trailer was pretty bad but even tho some of the lines are kinda childish and the principal looks like an evil and annoying version of Paul Feig it was still a good and funny movie and easily the best part of it was the animation and the drawings that the main character did threw out the movie and the overall result was a nice relaxing film with some good performances. (8/10)
