MCT:May 7, 2008Bright fifteen year old in love with his stepmother. The movie could be a lot better if it wasn't for his obsession for her. I lost focus at some point, actually getting bored, thinking "is it over yet?"

Great actors and great filmwork, tadpole is a good film. The one facotr that made it unenjoyable was the facotr of a "Graduate" theme.

MCT:January 27, 2008Mostly grating story about an arrogant, but brilliant, 15-year-old who falls in love with his stepmother. This movie tries to be edgy, a la Rushmore, but, due to a lack of likable characters, winds up being irritatingly stuffy instead.

I could rank this higher if it weren't for one thing, the film looses real ground with Oscar getting too obssesed with Eve and even rejecting offers from other women. No matter how smart and sharp a 15 year old kid can be, the chance of getting laid with fine ladies at that age is like finding gold under your bed. No teen would say no to that just because he is in love with someone.
Yet, the film is quite fun to watch, especially for anyone who felt like the main character at some point over those teen years. No connection at all with people of his age, and with way too different interests. That and the taste for mature dames.
Nice wet dream of a movie, could have been better. Bebe Neuwirth looks damn good in this one. Only mentally derranged and under the influence of strange medications i would have prefered Weaver over her. -

Couldn't stay focused, that may be due to my complete exhaustion after some crazy birthday celebrations and a busy work schedule last week.

MCT:June 6, 2007Smart and humorous! there are so many levels of wrong in this movie that it was almost uncomfortable to watch. It had me releasing guilty closet giggles all the way through until ultimately revealing that some intelligence is gained purely from experience and age really is more than just a number. it also never hurts to have poignant Voltaire quotes sprinkled about opportunely!

MCT:April 9, 2007This movie is so sweet and funny, watching it just fills me with giggly joy. Everyone is great in this movie and the humour is derived from the characters themselves and thier relationships. It's easy to forget that Oscar is 15, which adds to the effectiveness of the whole story. I love this movie, even though it kind of looks like crap. I don't think digital Hi8 recording was the best way to go with this film.

I found this rather dull, the laughs were few & far-between. The character 'Oscar' seemed somewhat sweet to start with but I soon found him quite annoyingly arrogant lol. Bebe Neuwirth's performance was the most amusing.

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed watching this. Some really funny moments but disappointed at how it turned out.

Funny and nice, although the story is kinda weird. the enthusiasm of the film makes up for the rest.

You know, I love Aaron Stanford, but this has got to be one of the lamest scripts ever. Yes, it has its funny moments, but not enough to make up for the general awkwardness of the story.
