OK, if anybody has seen the trailer and any other teen movie, they will know exactly how this movie goes. Berke Landers (Ben Foster) is dumped by his girlfriend Allison (Mellisa Sagemiller), who soon starts dating a new guy called Stryker (Shane West). Berke acts in the school play to win back but falls for Kelly (Kirsten Dunst), the little sister of his best friend Felix (Colin Hanks). The plot is boring and the writing apalling for the most part, but there are a few good jokes (the accident prone Dora-Lynn, Felix and Kelly's hormonally imbalanced dog, some great visual humour and Martin Short as the over the top high school drama teacher) and the acting is decent in some parts (Colin Hanks, Kirsten Dunst & Martin Short), but bad in others (Shane West in particular, his accent was appalling). Finally, one thing that makes the movie passable, Berke's parents, who applaud his curiosity when he is arrested in a strip joint and get annoyed when he throws a party when they're out of town, but only because they think he should have told them & let them paid for a DJ. I would give it 4/10 as a film in general, but worth watching if you have nothing else to do.
