A waste of 90 minutes of my life
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
This movie, if not memorable, offers a bit of entertainment at least. Two skater kids want to go to a big competition, Mega Dega, but they must evade their strict teenage nanny while his parents are away from home. Hilarity ensues.The tone of this comedy is very much like a cartoon. I can say it's like a live action version of an episode of a Butch Hartman's show (ala Fairly Oddparents) starred by a pair of brothers reminiscent of the Sprouse twins. Actually there is some scenes animated.You will find some known faces here, like Ariel Winter or Janet Varney, and even a cameo by the band Metrostation, but Lindsay Shaw (Moze in "Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide") get the best part as the neurotic nanny. Not bad, not great. Nice for a delayed game's afternoon.
