Way too ridiculous at times, but still very watchable
15 March 2011
When I first saw this movie in theater when it came out, I thought it was a pretty entertaining comedy. All I can say that it does not deserve the bashing it's been getting, it far from being a believable comedy and isn't one of the best comedy of the year. But it's still a enjoyable comedy despite the ridiculousness of everything in this movie. The factor that made this movie watchable is that it just doesn't really get bored. Even for a comedy that takes place in a high school, it's just ridiculous because the set up isn't ridiculous, but the direction is very ridiculous. The story is about 3 students that just started high school who are the biggest geeks, hire a bodyguard since they constantly gets bullied in a comedic manner. And as the movie progresses they start to bond a bit. The dialogue in this is pretty childish but didn't think it was really cringe worthy, in fact I think the negative rating is from how childish and immature the the direction of this movie is. But those stuff just wasn't all that bad in this movie or got me annoyed that much. Yes this movie has a lot of flaws but the main thing is that it's entertaining and very watchable, just isn't anything amazing.
