An American school story isn't typically something I would choose to watch myself but me and my younger sister were looking for something to watch on Netflix together and it seemed like something she'd like so I decided why not. The film was entertaining (however I think to say it was funny would be an exaggeration). It was also a lot darker than I expected with a selfish stepfather and a young boy who dies of cancer but I quite liked this aspect as it's not something you usually see in a film of this type so it brought something new and unexpected to the table. I would say it's about average but it's not too bad. If you can't find anything to watch this isn't a bad choice and I'm sure younger children would enjoy it.
