This teen film is unlike others in so many ways. No over the top gay characters, just some sweet little moments. No mean girls/guys. No "hot" blond girlfriend.
But instead quirky and cute interests that were really woven into the film, not just in a moment where it seemed like you'd need the information, like many others..
Alex is a different main character in many ways. He is adorably geeky and nerdy, he's super emotional and doesn't care for it! And he doesn't just follow the crowd. He is just genuine and sweet.
Something else I liked for a change was the fact that the cast wasn't made up from just the best looking people. The main characters aren't ugly, don't get me wrong, but they also aren't the best looking people in my opinion. They were really cast for their skills and not their looks, which made the film a lot more believable!
The plot does remain predictable and very American but still a highly enjoyable film!
