American high-school drama
Leaving the studious Hermione Granger from Harry Potter behind her, Emma Watson plays Sam, a "wild child" at an American high school. SHe's the type who never does her work, takes drugs and parties all night. Unfortunately, there is jut something too clean and sensible about Emma WAtson to be convincing in this role. Either Americans have a very difernet idea of what constitutes "wildness" in a teenager, or she is not a very strong actress. The film also stars Ezra Miller (excellent in We Need Talk About Keving) as her gay best friend, and Logan Lerman as the shy, sensitive new boy who falls in love with her. It is one of those well-meaning stories in which each character learns something about himself and matures by the end of the film. It is a quite entertaing but a little predictable.
