    I'm very pleasantly surprised!

    This was a really cute movie! I didn't know what to expect but my daughters,who are 8 and 10 saw the commercials for it on TV and asked me to buy it. They just loved it. I thought the cast was great and Jennette McCurdy did a great job. She's fun to watch on iCarly. We liked the 4 girls the solved the mystery too! My girls are hoping for a sequel!

    I thought the adult actors did a good job too. I didn't recognize any of them but they were talented and funny. Especially the professor. You can tell this isn't a big budget movie from a studio but it had lots of heart and I'm glad we own it. I would recommend moms buying this for their kids.

    Complete Garbage!!!!!

    I don't know who's been writing all of these glowing reviews for this film, but I'm guessing that they've either never seen a film before in their lives or maybe they had something to do with making the film. That's about the only explanation, because EVERYTHING is BAD about this film. The writing is horrible, the acting is terrible, the casting is awful and the direction is pathetic. I can understand a bad script and the poor direction, but couldn't they have at least found some interesting actors?? It seems like you'd be able to walk into about any high school in the country and find a half dozen kids that could act better or be more interesting than this cast. I'm not trying to pick on these kids, but I can't ever recall seeing a film where so many of the actors were just unpleasant to even watch on screen.

    This is one of those rare films that comes along every so often where it seems like everything went wrong. From the low budget look and poor staging of the scenes to the actors that sound like they're reading cue cards, badly, it seems like nothing goes right.

    And for those people that are able to make it to the end of this flick, you probably did more hurling than all the kids in this film. A Terrible Film!!! This is the kind of film IMDb should allow people to give the film a zero or maybe negative one review, because it doesn't deserve a one star!!

    Love it!

    The plot is pretty good. Nothing unique but the movie is fun and entertaining for kids about age 6-13.

    My grandkids love the actress who plays Mia in the movie, she's on iCarly and they love that show.

    The other characters in the movie were good. My grandkids liked all the characters in the movie especially the kid with the red hair and all the hives, and the coach who talks with an Indian accent.

    My favorite was Professor Plume. He was a hoot!

    I rate it an 8 out of 10 because there aren't too many movies I can let my grandkids watch while they are at my house. It kept them happy for a couple of hours and that makes me happy!

    Absolutely awful!!

    I watched this film after looking for high rated movies. What a mistake! I don't think i have been so bored of a film for a VERY long time. I should have read all the comments carefully because i didn't realise the film had been falsely voted 10's by friends of actors in the movie. I would say the film is at best a 3, and thats really being a bit too kind! The acting is horrendous, i don't see how anyone in the movie was even cast but I'm guessing the budget was extremely low. The plot is ridiculous. Do not waste your life watching this, seriously! To anyone considering voting on a movie, please give it a realistic vote. There are masterpieces with a lower rating than this pile of rubbish!

    Might Only suit the targeted age group

    In my humble opinion, this is a film that will only be liked by those of a certain age group, most probably pre-teens. The film is not intended for all age group, and as such, those who are way older than the targeted age group, would not like this film that much.

    The acting wasn't that great, probably because the cast are not experience in acting, and they may have problems to portray their acting into a more believable manner.

    Having said that, I think their acting is quite good. And the storyline wasn't that bad either. The storyline were not focused at times, but I don't find to be bothersome.

    Again, this film is may not be enjoyed by everyone, but only to those in the pre-teens age group. As for me, I don't find it my liking, but my nieces love it.
