The scenes between Thea and her work crush were boring but romances bore me unless they're really good love stories. This is not a good love story. That scene where he gives that big speech and what's her face asks him if he knows how cute he is made me wanna puke, that speech was creepy and he wasn't cute. Some of the scenes and subsequently the dialogue in this movie were just bad.
I thought going in that the premise of the movie was stupid but I was surprised by how they played with it. There were a lot of bad scenes but there was also a lot of creative ideas on what happens to Thea. Now the premise is a good one but the movie could have been a lot better than it was if it was quirkier or if the humour "went there" more often. Probably because it's an ABC Family movie but the humour almost crossed that line but it never really did, maybe in the pregnancy class which the only laugh out loud moment I can remember.
Lindsay's performance was one of the weaker ones of the film but she's not that great of an actress. She's watchable enough but the other performances really carry the film though none of them are anything special. Just watchable.
The sounds and music in this movie are better than expected. The backgrounds in this movie are ugly, nothing is visually appealing. The colours in the movie are all boring and drab. The fashion in this movie is non-existent.
Very mediocre, this is a DVD best suited for the bargain bin.
