Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

This movie what should I tell about it , " This Movie is Just Great & Amazing " and this is my opinion after watching it . Before going into this movie I did not expect that it would be so amazing , entertaining, moving and heart touching .This movie relaxed Me. Since beginning till end you will not find it boring even for a second. This is among those movies which have "Feel Element " " Love Element" in them . When you will watch it you will feel it .I will not reveal anything about the plot and story of this movie which I always do whenever I write a review for a movie so that you can enjoy it to the fullest. I rarely write review for movies because I think that I am not so good in reviewing movies but This Movie forced me to do it because It is and was such a Nice, Great & Amazing Movie . Just Go & watch it to Enjoy & to Feel it . For me this movie is worth 10 Stars out of 10 ********** .

Well-filmed and interestingly plotted coming-of-age story that's very revealing of adolescent ennui and indecision and the reasons behind same. George Zinavoy is a believable character: Smart, talented, and failing to see the point of the apparent rat-race going on around him (I remember that feeling oh-so-well). Sally Howe is similarly convincing and makes an effective counter-character to George.Definitely worth seeing if you like this sort of thing, but nothing truly special. The story and character development, though not just the same ol', are both a little sketchy and underdeveloped. The script and acting are realistic, but again, nothing spectacular. THE ART of GETTING BY has some real depth to it; nevertheless, it could have gone a little deeper. Only 83 minutes--it might have been better if it had taken more time to tell the story.

This film is incredible. I loved it and will treasure it. What I loved the most was how it spoke to me. The acting was superb and the fact that they are of similar age to the characters makes it so real.The Film is about a teenager called George (played by Highmore) and how he thinks that we live alone, die alone and that life is just an illusion. He fears life itself because it gives him a strong awareness of his mortality making everything seem meaningless. At school his attitude to learning is poor and to his teachers he can do much more. He has this angle playing relationship with his principal, as he has been sent to him umpteen times, and he stresses to George how important his senior year is. He gives George a warning.home it is George, his Mother and step farther. He has a different relationship with both of them. With his Mother he really cares for her and wants what is best for her. With his step father it is the complete opposite and they don't see eye to eye much.George goes on the roof to contemplate and meets Sally (played by Roberts) who is smoking on there but is not supposed to and he covers for her. She waits for him after school and introduces herself to him and asks him why he never does his work. He tells her that he is a misanthrope not by choice just a fact. His attitude to life changes after he meets Sally because he starts seeing life differently and begins to introduce himself to the world by designing a poster for one of her friends' New Year's Eve party. Whilst skipping school with her, he sees his step father walking across the street when he should be working. The principal catches wind that George has this new circle of friends and blackmails him into attending the career day to be a helper, as he was caught smoking on the roof. He meets Dustin, who is also a painter. George gets inspired by his speech and shows him his book and they build a relationship and he invites George to his studio. George tells them that whenever he visualises a subject he feels that he is being something he is not and Dustin tells him to exercise the muscle or else it will never happen.He takes Sally with him and Dustin asks if they are together and George reiterates how they are friends and Dustin says he will leave it alone. On the way home Sally asks George if Dustin said anything about her and he lies.George, Sally and her friends party during New Year's Eve but George gets lost and winds up outside and passes out. Sally finds him and takes him home and puts him to bed, after he tells her that she is amazing. He wakes up to see her asleep. He goes back to sleep to wake up with the knowledge that she has seen something up that every boy knows too well. Sally's mum tells her, during the evening, that messing around with the affections of the good guys is not right and Sally rejects this notion of her relationship with George and insists that they are just friends.During Valentine's Day, Sally puts George in an environment that is severely uncomfortable and he inevitably takes it the wrong way and becomes convinced that their relationship is all a joke. They reach an impasse and don't speak to each other. George goes incommunicado and tortures himself with the same song and snaps at anyone that speaks to him. Sally finds Dustin and asks if he has seen George and then they start to get close.George's luck of not doing his school work catches up with him as he is summoned to the principal and he is given the choice of expulsion or completing everything assignment, paper and exercise that he has been set this year within 3 weeks. At first he chooses expulsion and is given time to think it over.The news is passed on to his home and a big argument happens resulting in his step father injuring himself as he wrestles with George, after he exposes him for not actually working when he is meant to and spends his days wandering the streets like a homeless person. George runs to Sally's and relentlessly knocks on her door. She opens the door and he kisses her. She kisses him back then stops him. She opens the door and he sees Dustin. He leaves the apartment and Dustin catches up with him.After an emotional scene a heart broken George leaves. He spends the next few days contemplating and meets his Mother in the park where she tells him that she is getting a divorce as he frequently lied to her and forced her to put herself financially at risk and now they have to sell their home. George agrees to do the mission impossible and is given a break when his Art teacher only asks for one assignment, which is to draw something meaningful and fearless. He finally speaks to Sally after school and he tells her his situation. She texts him to meet her and she tells him that she is going travelling with Dustin and she will be leaving tomorrow on graduation. He confesses his love for her and they share a kiss or two...George asks her to stay. Sally tells George she loves him too. George begins his mission impossible and his Art subject slowly takes formation. At the end of the film we finally see what it was! - Sally. She comes back after leaving Dustin at the airport, during final boarding call, and she still hasn't decided what she is doing. What she does know is that she will be going this unknown with George.
