This is possibly one of the most poorly written, casted and directed movies I've ever seen. I realize it's written for a specific tween age group, but this is so behind the times. My little sister was dumbfounded with what the characters were saying and sometimes thought it was a joke. The whole movie is laced with an annoying whimsical, "everything will be OK" type of vibe that just drags down every potential for an exciting moment.
The only way I was finishing this movie was just to see if these writers were actually following through with this film. The characters are amazingly boring, with a slight exception to the Mom. There are those moments after a character says their line and a there's an assumption, a flow that should come next, but instead they meander in what they just said. It was very strange to watch. It ended with me having a physical stomach ache because of the sheer awkwardness and odd behaviour demonstrated by the characters. Why I put myself through this, I don't know. :P
This is from a passionate movie goer's perspective, keep this in mind.
