It's the Danforth Academy boarding school. Abby is jealous of new girl Paige but she happens to be her assigned roommate. Abby sends her away and keeps Claire. Paige finds Taylor as her new roommate. Someone threatens to make the cheerleaders sick and then it actually happens. Next the soccer team is threatened and the four girls investigate.
The production is lower grade. It's a lot of young tween amateur actors. Jennette McCurdy is the only one to make the big times and she seems to be retired now. Such is the lottery odds of show business. This is a bit of Nancy Drewing going on in this movie. The writing and directing is kids TV level. I actually like Abby's character journey with Paige but most of the characters are rather simplistic. This is really only a movie for young girls at best.

This was a very enjoyable and entertaining movie, one that parents could feel comfortable watching with their young children, which is rare these days for a film with anything but a 'G' rating. Pre-teens and young teens especially will enjoy this.
The acting was solid, the cast was superb, the writing was excellent, and the story was fun. Compared to a lot of the big-budget garbage that comes out of Hollywood today, this was a refreshing light-hearted treat. Minor Details may not be a 'Cinematic Masterpiece' (as some readers believe is the only type of film deserving of a 10 rating on IMDb, even though true cinematic masterpieces are extremely rare) but this film is far from rubbish and deserves to be applauded for the efforts of the cast and crew who all worked very hard on this project and did an outstanding job to bring it from idea to script to screen.
In short, I loved it!!! I would recommend Minor Details to anyone with children, especially girls, in the 8-14 age range. Personally, I will be watching it again and plan to own it on DVD.
Kudos to everyone involved in this project for a job well done!

I don't know who's been writing all of these glowing reviews for this film, but I'm guessing that they've either never seen a film before in their lives or maybe they had something to do with making the film. That's about the only explanation, because EVERYTHING is BAD about this film. The writing is horrible, the acting is terrible, the casting is awful and the direction is pathetic. I can understand a bad script and the poor direction, but couldn't they have at least found some interesting actors?? It seems like you'd be able to walk into about any high school in the country and find a half dozen kids that could act better or be more interesting than this cast. I'm not trying to pick on these kids, but I can't ever recall seeing a film where so many of the actors were just unpleasant to even watch on screen.
This is one of those rare films that comes along every so often where it seems like everything went wrong. From the low budget look and poor staging of the scenes to the actors that sound like they're reading cue cards, badly, it seems like nothing goes right.
And for those people that are able to make it to the end of this flick, you probably did more hurling than all the kids in this film. A Terrible Film!!! This is the kind of film IMDb should allow people to give the film a zero or maybe negative one review, because it doesn't deserve a one star!!

Minor Details is literally the worst thing I have ever seen on a screen. It is as cheap,generic,cheesy,and overrated as a Denny's hamburger.I have never seen such bad acting in my life and would only watch this movie if someone put a gun to my head and told me to.The writing,acting,casting,theme,feel,direction,setting,and even the point of this entire movie is outrageously stupid.Just by looking at the title of this movie made me scream out that it was it was going to be another girly film about a bunch of baloney,and I was quite right.The actors look like they're holding their script in front of them and saying their lines aloud,and the only decent and sort of known actor in Minor Details is the girl from iCarly that was still terrible in this movie.I sort of think that my 10 year old sister,the one who made me watch this movie as it was her turn for family movie night,created this entire movie after an investor passed her 100 dollars to make it.The only thing they got right was characterization which was because the characters are dim witted and have the direction of a broken GPS.If you put a decent film with a sub-par plot such as Rudy next to this movie,Minor Details would disintegrate in to a million pieces.This movie is just another mixture of a bunch of other movies with the same theme.Minor Details must have been put together by super glue because this movie's sense of interesting plot structure is as weak as a cheap watchstrap.This movie is as ridiculously cliché,as if someone watched every single movie ever made,found a running theme in all of them,and put them in to this one .If you are above twelve and/or male I would advise you not to watch this movie unless you have a big bowl of ice cream to tolerate it.Minor Details is absolutely perfect for a ten year old girl's slumber party.Otherwise,don't watch this film.
I watched this film after looking for high rated movies. What a mistake! I don't think i have been so bored of a film for a VERY long time. I should have read all the comments carefully because i didn't realise the film had been falsely voted 10's by friends of actors in the movie. I would say the film is at best a 3, and thats really being a bit too kind! The acting is horrendous, i don't see how anyone in the movie was even cast but I'm guessing the budget was extremely low. The plot is ridiculous. Do not waste your life watching this, seriously! To anyone considering voting on a movie, please give it a realistic vote. There are masterpieces with a lower rating than this pile of rubbish!
