Reviews


60
Empire - Caroline Westbrook
For all its faults, the good-natured, quirky humour that this for the most part offers ultimately makes it very hard to dislike.
50
The A.V. Club - Nathan Rabin
The film exists for its shots of telegenic youngsters busting loose to a bankable soundtrack, and it's the cheesy dialogue, overstuffed plot, and predictable character arcs that come across as superfluous.
50
TV Guide Magazine - Unnamed
Insubstantial, predictable and often dull, it's a dismaying move from director Allen Moyle, who displayed a real grasp of pulp energy in 1990's "Pump Up the Volume".
42
Entertainment Weekly - Ty Burr
The movie is too blatant a throwback to crass '80s teen fodder to really work.
38
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
If the movie is a lost cause, it may at least showcase actors who have better things ahead of them.
