Volta por Cima

If you're looking for an entertaining teen movie to watch where you can turn your brain off but still be engaged, Get Over It is for you.

The acting is great (some performances are intentionally over the top but it adds to the comedy). The script is well paced with some hilarious sequences. The story blends Shakespeare and high school hijinks to great effect.

They really don't make teen movies like this anymore and that's sad.

OK, i picked this film to watch on a night in with the girls because it looked funny and it had Kirsten Dunst in it, and lets face it everyone loves her! But I have to say it has now become one of my favourite movies, its filled with funny dialogue, funky songs and jam packed with cool stars. I love Martin Short as the over dramatic Play director (being a drama student i have had directors very similar to him!)

The movie does constantly slip in and out of reality but the amazingly funny songs do hold it together and leave the the audience with the tunes stuck in there heads for days! With Vitamin C appearing in the opening sequence and the finale alongside Sisqo, it is hard not to fall in love with the music! I think it is clever that the movies narrative is based on Shakespeares "A midsummer nights dream" which is also the play that is performed in the finale of the movie. And Get over it could be used in schools to help desperate teenagers to understand the sometimes complex story lines of Shakespeares plays. Overall the movie fits the typical teen movie criteria, but at the same time it has some quirky gimmicks that are really funny. Its a perfect film to regain that feel good feeling after a rubbish day!

This might not be the familiar name to the people but after watching it I got to say – it is one of the very few really good teen movies existed. No matter how many times I watch it is still very lively and watch able.

Story: A boy was crush when the loves of his life dump him. Desperate, he tried every trick to get her back, that also include joining the school theatre for A Midsummer Night Dream when everything when out of plan.

The casting is awesome, though the acting is no award material. The songs are also good, the story is alright – a new version of A Midsummer … though some of the stuff are pure nonsense and senseless.

Overall, the movie is very enjoyable musical movie, and there is no another teen musical movie so make this one of a kind. It is also very lively, kind of pervert, and some of the stuff could actually make you laugh.

Recommendation: Yes, Check It Out.

Rating: 7/10 (Grade: C+)

Out of the many, many teen flicks out there today, I find this one my favorite of them all. It stands above the rest mainly because it does not take itself seriously. In the first, oh, five minutes of the film you have: 1) A guy being sucked into a vortex when his girlfriend breaks up with him and 2) A full-on song and dance number. Yes, this movie is stupid, and it knows it.

I find the first, oh two-thirds of the movie to be amusing, but nothing really special. The last third of the movie is where the film really picks up pace and made me fall in love with it. The school play is surprisingly true to real life (at least how theatre was at my school) and the song/dance numbers are priceless. I often find myself fast-forwarding to these scenes when I don't have the time to watch the whole thing.

Good movie for when you want to shut off your brain and just enjoy mindless entertainment.

What can I say about this film, aside from the fact I loved it? It's about a boy who gets dumped by his childhood sweetheart, and falls for his best friend's girlfriend. It may sound like a soppy romance, but it's far from that!! A hilarious comedy is to follow.

The soundtrack complimented the film really well, and I am so glad we have finally heard Kirsten Dunst sing - her voice is absoloutely brilliant.

The acting in it was brilliant as well. Kirsten is a great actress in all styles, not just comedy, but drama too, but this was one of her outstanding performances. This is the first time I had seen Ben Foster act, and he is really good. Shane West was cool, but his character's arrogance annoyed me a little.

Despite all this, I think it was a really good film, and I'd love to see it again!
