Harriet the Spy: Blog Wars (2010 TV Movie)
5/10
Canada kills another one
18 April 2010
Warning: Spoilers
Suffice it to say that the usual Canadian suspects funded this thing directly and indirectly, and got the usual result, a pile of trash. I feel worst for the young actors who now have this indelible stain on their records. It's probably not their fault.

My only further comments are about the absolutely ridiculous ending. I didn't like the movie before the ending, but I dropped my rating from a 6 to a 5 based on the ending.

1. Teacher accuses student of violating the "privacy" of the school blog. If anyone actually believes you can put something on the internet and keep it "private", they aren't too bright.

2. Teacher cancels blog, and is overruled by ... students? No teacher with that weak a spine would still be around at her age. Class is not a democracy.

3. Teacher says nothing about the real violation of privacy, the actual illegal breaking, entering, trespass, and theft carried out by her student Harriet.

4. The liar Harriet is rewarded, by good luck, and still doesn't come clean about it.
