I'll tell you why so serious

i must have seen a different film!!

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

I stumbled upon this movie by accident. I find it really cleverly written. I assumed a woman wrote a script and the credits confirmed my thinking. Due to commercials I was not able to read credits. Completely off topic, but I enjoy reading the opening credits but in my country(Croatia), commercial televisions do not let us read them which I find horrible and rude to the creators of all movies. However, let me return to the movie. Amber Tamblyn is an excellent actress which is proved yet again in this little gem of psychological study on teenage behavior and love problems. It just proves that honesty pays in the long run even among teenagers. I am going to buy this movie. The script is well managed. One can really sense that the script writer loves all her characters and wants to understand them. I would strongly recommend this movie to all of my friends who like well-written scripts.

While the acting is nothing stellar, the real problem with this film is the writing. It tries for the unscripted, natural feel and only succeeds in making it seem unpolished and amateurish. There's nothing to set apart the way that it's filmed and the music selection is a bit over-dramatic.Film-making qualities aside, it still doesn't have a compelling story. It's completely inaccurate and unrealistic and takes itself far too seriously to be a dark farce of the whole clique-of-friends-who-sleep-together. The characters are lacking in any personality except for a few minor roles. It's a shame this film is even associated with Havoc, which is well-filmed and at least has a point to it.

I just recently saw the movie Normal Adolescent Behavior, I saw the commercial for the movie, and thought it looked really interesting. I thought the movies theme was great, "group sex" is something that isn't very uncommon these days, some people think that the movies tries to portray all teenagers, but in actuality it just portray a single "family" of friends, and should not be taken in offense. I thought the story line was great, some other people think that the story was "jumpy" and switched moods fast, but thats what teenage life is like, one minutes content, the next erratic, so it really portrayed teenage life correctly. Anyways, i really enjoyed the movie, and the acting was wonderful.

I was astounded by the very negative reviews I read here, I thought the movie Normal Adolescent Behavior was fantastic. The use of the group-sex pact I thought, really showed how people grow up and evolve. While some viewers may say it was over-the-top, I have to disagree, although the situation is pretty unusual, those kinds of things happen every once and a while, things that sound so bizarre, parents don't even take the rumors seriously. It was so thought-provoking, days after seeing this film I kept analyzing what relationships really mean, a major theme of the movie. You see how with all of these so-called "liberated" sexual practices in teen culture, such as nameless sex partners and girls going down on boys for status hurts teens' ability to have healthy sexual relationships. I, as a highschooler can also vouch that things such as the party scenes are not unrealistic, just kept very quiet. I talked to my mother about the issues of this film, and any movie that can spark discussions between teenagers and adults about sex, I think, is a good thing.
