Editor Darrin Navarro shaped the rhythm. On an edit-heavy film, the editor does more to control your pulse than the director.

Decent watch at best, probably won't watch again, and can't recommend. I would have thought I'd want to J.C. Reilly to be my counselor, but it's a very awkward character, and has some potentially ill-intended implications. The main plot is about a troubled teen in an poor situation, and it is hardly ever addressed directly. The movie is a cycle of disappointing cycles, mirroring far too close to the mental hardships of teen-hood. The movie also just sort of ends. This is far too heavy a movie to be legitimately funny, and too casually constructed to be a powerful drama. I honestly don't recommend watching this,but it;s not a complete waste of time if you do, the movie has its moments.
