    It's majorly predictable but pretty alright. I can't really recommend it though.

    Christopher Lloyd is totally wasted in this.

    It was the same movie as Good Burger. Way too predictable.
  • July 9, 2009
    I thought it was pretty fun actually not perfect by any means but I loved the concept and setting
  • June 4, 2009
    I only watched it because of Zooey Deschanel. It was pretty good, but a little off the wall for some people, but at least it was different.

    Not bad. Zooey is fun to watch and eats up the screen.

    This movie was great. I love the idea of a cereal bar war!!! It was so fun. Stanford and Deschanel were such a cute couple. I loved the rock concert in the cereal bar at the very end. I am a sucker for happy endings.

    ZOOEY DESCHANEL CAN DO NO WRONG.
