I was ecstatic to hear a favorite book of mine was being made into a film, then when I saw it was nothing like it! DO NOT I repeat DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME! Mae Whitman an excellent actress saved this wretched film with her incredible acting skills making it little more bare able to watch, but alas it was still a horrible experience. Nice try though.

(Everyone's favorite game)

On top of containing generic teen drama and Ken Jeong, the film presents a very cringy, unrealistic, unhealthy, unfaithful, overused message that women can randomly punch their crushes in the face, storm into the boy's locker room, and call some dude's dick small (all unscathed of course) and still have a happy little romantic ending.

Perhaps those locker room guys need to take a lesson or two from annoying anime girls. KYAAAAAAAA *throws every physical object in the room*

Teen movie where the teens are played by 30 year olds.

I cant get behind the fact they turned this into a cheap teen romcom. Anyone who hasnt read the book, please do (its great!) They change almost everything in the movie from character appearances to changing scenes/ settings that were major points of events to taking away characters that were essential to the true story. Characters were added to create a sense of suspense to a completely different storyline and others taken away, like her Father who was actually the one raising her when her mom ran off.

Maybe I'm biased because this was one of my favorite books as a teen, but knowing all these changes it was hard for me to enjoy the movie that did no justice to the author or the book.

There was so much fowl language in this movie that it hurts ones ears. The sexual scenes, partial nudity, and drawing of a penis, and testicles all lent to just another movie where they are trying to desensitize our young people. I took my son to it and had to keep reminding him to look away when they played a partial nudity scenes or some other sexual (pretend porn) scene. I do not know how it got the rating of PG-13 as almost every curse word, including the "F" one was played at every opportunity. Do NOT let your children watch this. It is more geared toward the 20's and 30's crowd that still lives at home. What a waste of our time, and what a lesson in how to talk like gutter trash.

I'm disappointed that I can't give this movie a negative score if I could it would be a -6. I would rather have a lobotomy then watch this movie again. In a way it was a lobotomy.
