Swindle

This is an alright teenage film for all viewers to watch. The crew did a fine enough job in creating this teenage film. The storyline of this teenage film was good enough and original. The cast selection was great. I am a massive fan of Ciara Bravo, Ariana Grande, Jennette McCurdy, and Noah Munck. All from Nickelodeon. They all work very well with each other. The chemistry between them is always strong. This teenage film reveals to viewers that everyone needs to be more cautious in the world of today. No one knows what truly is out there and no one knows what the future holds. This is a fine teenage film for everyone to watch.

It's an entertaining movie and I could watch this every time when I'm like bored or so. Btw, I love ari's role here. She really fit it! LOL. And Jennette! I love her and she's so funny!

Swindle was surprisingly not that bad. The acting was great. Especially seeing how the actors/actresses could play different roles from the other Nick shows they are on. Noah Munck was perfect as being the bully, Noah Crawford and Chris O'Neal shined as the best friends. It's an interesting story that keeps you wanting more. Each event is fun and a blast. It's not my favorite movie but it's definitely something I would watch again.

Decent watch, might watch again, and can recommend, but go watch "The Perfect Score" before this.

A lot of young actors, 3 of which I recognized at all, but couldn't place without looking at the credits, and wouldn't you know it Ariana Grande used to be an actor. She does a decent job, along with the rest of the cast.

Fred Ewanuick was my favorite as he usually plays such a nice guy, it was refreshing to see him handle a villain role,if poorly written. A similar problem to "Big Fat Liar", you have to really be delicate with what a villain does or the heroes do to a villain in a kids targeted movie.

Ultimately, I would suggest "The Perfect Score" or "Big Fat Liar" over this, but it's not a bad watch.

Lately, it seems Nickelodeon has been going downhill from the releases of their new series', but when I saw them advertising for one of my favorite books I read in elementary school, I thought "Great. Now they're going to make a mockery out of this book." Surprisingly, that didn't happen. It flowed out smooth enough to take in the movie without too many judgements, but it didn't completely elude my judging. There were 2 things I didn't care for in this TV movie. One being it verged from the original story a bit. I kept waiting for the part when Ben would reveal his narcolepsy, but that never happened. Aside from that, I was disappointed that the final heist never happened in Swindel's house, instead in a hotel lobby. Nick definitely took away the most suspenseful part. The second thing I did not care for were Noah and Jennette's characters. Savannah was meant to be the animal lover and the dog whisperer. Instead she was an actress with really no part. Ariana's character wasn't even "Pitch", instead she simply went by "Amanda" (Which wasn't even her real name in the book). However, though Nick left out some of the scenes I was hoping to see, they did a pretty decent job and is easily re-watchable.
