Add a CommentI love this movie so much that you can say that I'm obsessed. :)
good movie. good plot, i thought.
Loved it! Characters were interesting, had real life challenges and felt I could relate to them (even though I was that young a long time ago!).
One of the best teen movies. In a way, it was kind of shame about the last 15 minutes, but I guess necessary to wrap up the story.
Bittersweet story about High School teens who don't always fit in. Teenage angst, redux. See the earlier "Wild Reeds" from Andre Techine for a more sophisticated take on this story. Also, "Dare" is a lot more fun and raunchy.
Having come of age then myself, the soundtrack was weak, our clothes and hair were bigger with more poof, and there were too many rip offs from several John Hughes films. This film is depressing with few light moments which made it seem overly long. Not many laughs.
Classic coming of age movie.
After looking at all the other comments here, all I can say is, really??? I found it to be a real snooze-fest.
Not only is this a truly fantastic adaptation of a truly fantastic novel; it is also a truly fantastic film. I highly recommend this film to anyone who has ever felt different.
The book was a favourite of mine in my teens, but I was worried that the characters wouldn't translate well to film. I was pleasantly surprised by how good this movie was. I'm glad that Charlie's first person prose was used sparingly, and that the mixtapes in the book were worked into the soundtrack. This is one of the instances where the movie is better than the book.
