The first time I rented this for my kids I thought it was silly. Then My older son bought it for his sisters and himself. After hearing the dialogue, I became interested in it more and more. It is just wonderfull. I find myself relatinfg a little to each one of the characters and am dying to see more of them. My teens can recite the whole thing, and it never gets old.
It is wonderful to see so many teens involved in somenthing without sex, drugs, crime or violence as the main theme. It is not an action movie, it is low budget and low tech, and this just makes it more fun. You can see little changes in the props in the middle of a scene, and it adds to the experience.
I reccomend that parents get this for their kids and try to sit through it, get over the fact that it is slow paced, low tech and sometimes a little cheesy, it is just about real life and should be accepted as it is -freaking sweet.
