Stylish but barely mediocre overall

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Okay, so I saw this movie when I was younger and fell in love with it. Years later, I realize that it's pretty flawed.First off, the acting isn't that great. Edwards and Meyers seemed to be the worst out of all of them , and I'm pretty sure they only got the roles because their moms wrote it. The girl that played Riley (mean black girl) played the role well, but you could tell she was nervous. Emma Duke was just...bad. Like she's the definition of a child actor. But despite this, they all play their characters, for what they are, pretty decently.The writing is really weird and awkward sometimes. To the point where it's almost distracting.But I appreciate this movie because of the direction and the fact that the cast looked like they were actually having fun. The director obviously had a vision and the way the characters act is just...I don't know, fun and charming to watch. If you hate cliché tween movies, probably avoid this. If you're a girl or someone who likes girl movies, then maybe give this a try. When I need something simple to watch, I usually go to this movie.

I watched this movie at a friends house. The movie held my interest for the whole movie. The are just a few things that are wrng with this movie. The first issue is, why do the clothes look so outdated? It's like, the clothes back in 2009 did not look like this. Its only been about 7 years since this came out and I guessed it came out in the late 90s' or early 00s'.The next thing about this movie is, the culprit had the dumbest reason for doing what she did. I thought she would have some kind logical reason behind it all, or have some kind of backstory about getting bad grades or something. Basically anything having to do with grades or school was just filler and had no other reason. She literally bullied anyone and everyone for no reason. But other than that, this movie was pretty OK.

I was surprised that this movie was as good as it was. It doesn't have the gloss and production of a typical tween movie but the story line was decent. I especially like that it portrayed girls working together, using their brains, and moving past personality differences. The characters were all dressed modestly but cute which was refreshing. I thought the actresses did a good job of creating their characters, giving them a little depth and back story. However the story as a whole was very predictable. I am so tired of shows that depict the drama between girls at this age picking each other apart. This movie showed the girls something positive, a different reality that is possible even if it's not popular. These issues go back forever but we can keep trying to overcome them and I think this is a movie that helps our girls see positive ways to interact with difficult people or work through trying situations. All in all, it wasn't horrible to sit through though honestly I was reading or on the laptop but still, happy to be a presence when they would ask a question or make a comment. It's a mom & daughter movie for sure, good for a sleep over.

The plot is pretty good. Nothing unique but the movie is fun and entertaining for kids about age 6-13. My grandkids love the actress who plays Mia in the movie, she's on iCarly and they love that show. The other characters in the movie were good. My grandkids liked all the characters in the movie especially the kid with the red hair and all the hives, and the coach who talks with an Indian accent. My favorite was Professor Plume. He was a hoot! I rate it an 8 out of 10 because there aren't too many movies I can let my grandkids watch while they are at my house. It kept them happy for a couple of hours and that makes me happy!
