“Drive me Crazy” – PG-13
Melissa Joan Hart, from the television series “Sabrina, the Teenage Witch, ” stars as Nicole in this cute high school movie.
She has just been dumped by her boyfriend and is devastated. She needs to find a way to get back at him so that she has her ideal date to the prom.
Chase (Adrian Grenier) is Nicole’s next door neighbor and a friend from her younger years. They no longer run in the same circles at school. He too has just been let out of his relationship and is in morning. Nicole comes up with a fabulous idea; they should pretend to date each other. This would serve them both by making the ex’s jealous. But could it be they start feeling things for each other instead?
If you haven’t guessed it yet, I love high school movies! I can’t explain why, but I do. This movie was cute and light-hearted and I did indeed enjoy it. I would recommend it if you’re in the mood for a light romance. It was written by Todd Strasser and Rob Thomas and directed by John Schultz. Melissa Joan Hart has only been in the business for a few years, but I imagine she’ll have a successful career. Adrian Grenier was terrific. He had the charisma needed to pull off a teen movie. The supporting actors in the film also added needed comedy. It was a good all around movie...NOT just for teens!
Enjoy!
