This movie was so good!!! I loved it.

Quirky but Fun

I downloaded and watched it via iTunes and enjoyed it. It was kind of odd (like Juno), but not as dark or heavy. The actors had fun making the movie and made it fun for you to watch. It wasn't so much a "girl power" movie as it was a teen angst movie, that speaks of growing up. It's a 2000's version of Pretty in Pink. The characters were believable. The coach and the rink announcer provided additional (and unexpected) joy on the side. WARNING: The SDR (Sex Drugs and Rocknroll) aspect of growing up portrayed in the film will not appeal to strict LDS audiences though.
