    This film has no right to be as funny or entertaining as it is. What should be your run of the mill exercise in teen romance becomes something with a lot more humour thanks to the performances. Foster is a wonderful lead, being accessibly geeky with the perfect amount of dry wit....( read more) Martin Short handles most of the comical moments of improvisational rants which almost have his supporting cast in tears. Shane West also comes out on tops with a fantastically hammy role of an absolute arse with a fake English accent. Dunst is simply amazing as always and she gets plenty of singing which is nice because she has a great voice. The climatic school play is non stop laughs with some appropriately inappropriate songs for a Shakespeare play.

    A typical teen comedy really. The outcome is very obvious early on and only had a few laughs and too many songs. Aimed more at younger teens I felt.

    A lot better than the basic high school premise sounds, and it's got some great throwaway lines and witty dialogue.

    Sisqo is in this movie, case in point. But the fact that Martin Short is putting on a Highschool play by destroying the original "Midsummer Nights Dream" and making it "A rockin summers eve" is hilarious!

    Your typical teen romantic comedy. Stars Kirsten Dunst, Ben Foster, Shane West and R&B musician Sisqo. Not a bad movie. It has some funny moments. Your basic guy gets dumped by girl and tries to get her back but realize that he loves someone else in the end. Worth a one time watch.
