It's not the best movie I've ever seen, but I disagree with a previous user who dismissed it all as totally unrealistic. A lot of sheltered students in some high schools may view it as totally ridiculous, but this kind of thing is in fact happening. The movie managed to take every bad situation and cram it into a two hour span, which makes it seem absurd, but it's not completely out of the realm of truth. Take the documentary "The Lost Children of Rockdale County" which is possibly an inspiration behind this movie. The teens interviewed in that were as jaded and nonchalant about their actions as many characters in "She's too Young." Worse, even. It's not like every high school in the country has students like this, but it's going on, and there's no denying it. "Young" merely tells a single story of one set of teens' fictional experiences. I agree however that the way the school handled it was unrealistic. I think that a school probably would mail home those syphilis notification letters, not pass them out to embarrassed, angry students. The long line of students waiting to be tested in clear view of the whole school seemed unnecessarily humiliating and wrong. I get the feeling it's not really like that. I sure HOPE not. Anyway, just my five cents.

Now I know most people will come on here and talk smack about this movie but i personally loved it. I, being a teenager, did identify everything they were saying. and it's true in my school. I felt like Hannah..because I am pretty much a good girl like her, and I feel I am pressured or guys give me guilt into doing those kind of things. but yeah..i can never write long comments so this is all I have to say..i suggest you watch 'Shes Too Young' I was impressed.

This movie has a good plot. But I'll have to say, the acting isn't good, the dialogue isn't that good either, some things that happen are unrealistic, and at times, this movie is just way too slow. I think this movie is good in the sense of showing the dangers of sex, especially at a young age, how people can switch up on you really fast, how others can change you, etc. But I feel like it could've done a way better job at showing this. I definitely saw potential in this movie, it's not like I want them to just throw it away, I just think if they changed a few things, it could've been a lot better.

I'm watching this right now, and it's a laugh a minute!

Wow, I remember highschool as an extremely dumb time in everyone's life. This movie cemented that for me. I've been removed form that particular atmosphere for about 2 years now and I already feel like I was never there. The behavior of these kids are ridiculous and you just wanna slap them. "You have to sleep with Tommy to be popular mom! Like, duh!" It's such a middle class movie, it makes me wanna puke. I'm middle class myself, but nothing bothers them til inner city problems affect them. What about inner city kids who face this problem all the time? "Oh, they're just like that. Not my Jane. She's a good kid". Yea? Janey's got syphillis. She's a GREAT kid. The premise is that a young girl is sucked into doing sexual things to gain popularity because that's the way of her school. You forget that you used to think that way in highschool. Anyway, she gets syphillis and returns to normal after her mother decided she's gonna handle things. She's learned from her mistake apparently. And of course, the sex rings at parties continues. Just makes you wanna slap kids and tell them to grow up, but you know it's the way our society has raised them. We tell them to be older by studying for SATs in 5th grade and they'll be older in other things too. I liked how they showed the little sister following the same cycle. But the issue should include everybody. Not when a middle-class mom gets p*s*e*. Still, a good movie to show the consequences of being popular.
