After the editor of the school paper gets involved in resolving this bad situation, he enlists the help of the former girlfriend of Sentinels leader. The two eventually begin to figure out what needs to be done. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Nina Darnton, New York Times
Unfortunately, the adolescent world created within the film extends to its conception.
-
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
This movie lacks the courage to admit what it is really about.

, TV Guide's Movie Guide
The direction is slick (occasionally too slick) and the acting adequate, although none of this can save the film once it begins to go astray.
-
Scott Weinberg, eFilmCritic.com
Dreary and instantly forgettable.
