There's the potential for 'Superbad'-style comedy when Denis and his pal go on the run with Beth and friends, but the pace is slow and lines fall flat thanks to long pauses and hammy delivery.

The story quickly -- and I mean quickly -- devolves into an unimaginative high school retread.

This is dreadful. This is a pathetic excuse for a movie.

The script by Larry Doyle, based on his novel, has some smart flashes, and a few of the young performers resemble real people and not the usual prefab teen idols.
Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
Rotten
This unfunny, unoriginal, charmless teen comedy is so stunningly awful from start to finish, it's amazing to think its director has made a single film before, much less a dozen.
Joe Neumaier, New York Daily News
