Not a masterpiece, but still a very creative and overall good film

This is a very good film, like I said its no masterpiece, but it is still a very good movie. I picked this because it won against Kung Fu Panda 2 on the Oscars in 2011, but lets just say Oscars are normally wrong, and they were wrong again. I will admit, it didn't deserve the Oscar, but it has such a good 3rd act, and the later half of the 2nd act is also great. The 1st act is the reason this movie got a 7 and not an 8 though, the 1st act is normally the worst part in most movies, but it is by quite far the worst part of the film. The reason this won an Oscar is probably because of the 3rd act and the attempted suicide in the late 2nd act, which was very sad and it brings me to another point about this movie. Was it made for kids or adults? It seems like a kids movie because of the PG rating and the company that produced it (Nickelodeon) but it has a lot of smoking, drinking, and even some language, it seems more like something DreamWorks would produce because they release a lot more movies with adult themes, but no, Nickelodeon? The last thing I want to say about this movie is the plot, it is pretty creative, although I think there are some problems with it, the most prominent reason for me is that it felt like there were going to be 4 main plots, but they just abandoned one after a while. Overall a good film and i recommend it, off my watchlist now.
