Surprisingly funny
A pretty good English attempt at a teen comedy. Quite similar to The girl next door, Weird Science in idea. Low budget but with a pretty strong cast, it has it share of funny moments. The award ceremony part was filmed across the road from where I live!

"Whooo! Where to start? I’ve watched it so many times. Until that movie, which I saw before even my teen years, I hadn’t seen a film that showed such raw passion connected with dance. It was sexy and showed that dance had the ability to translate into so many expressions."

"The single most touching teen movie happens to come from Scotland. About the pain of unrequited love, but it’s also very funny. Gregory’s connection with his little sister who looks after him is one of my favorite screen friendships and almost makes me cry in certain moments. A perfect movie."

Addicting, beautiful, real YA novel!
I devoured this one summer and fell in love with Lauren Oliver's prose. She tapped into the teenage experience in a way that spoke to me as a teen. I loved the concept, the characters, and knew that I would be a Lauren Oliver fan for life.

An average Rom-Com for me with quite a bit of teen comedy humour thrown in as well. It has some quite funny scenes set at the high school as the geeky kid who grew up, returns as an undercover journalist trying to fit in with the popular kids second time round.

Slow to start and begins looking like a generic teen novel but it got interesting with some darker tones and story. Would like to have seen more character development but there is more to the series so I'd hope it happens at some point, otherwise the characters didn't really change or grow much.

Surprisingly good
A didn't expect much from this teen high school comedy. There are so many and all so similar. This is a bit above average and had a certain feel good vibe about it with some funny scenes. One of the better high school set comedies for a very long time!

Nicolas Cage finally as Superman. (0 more)
Alfred The Movie
Teen Titans Go! To The Movies- has some great references, surprising comedic cameo, nice nods to the tv show and its also very funny.

Plus it finally has Nicolas Cage as Superman, he is only voicing him though, but still finally get Nicolas Cage as Superman after all these years. I would of still loved to see the live action verison with Nicolas Cage and Tim Burton directing it.

Anyways the plot: It seems that all the major superheroes out there are starring in their own movies -- all but the Teen Titans. Robin is bound and determined to remedy that situation by becoming a star instead of a sidekick. With a few madcap ideas and a song in their hearts, the Teen Titans head to Hollywood to fulfill their dreams. Things soon go awry, however, when a supervillain plans to take over the planet -- putting the very fate of the young heroes on the line.

Its a really great/intresting plot. If you havent seen this movie, than go watch it. Cause its a must see.
