struggles between quirky indie and traditional teen movie
Halley Martin (Mandy Moore) is a high school student disillusioned with love. She rolls her eyes at her sister Ashley getting married. Her mother Lydia (Allison Janney) is unhappily divorced from her DJ father (Peter Gallagher) who is getting remarried. Her best friend Scarlett Smith (Alexandra Holden) is happily in love until her boyfriend Michael suddenly dies. She’s reluctantly to love until Macon Forrester (Trent Ford) finally breaks down her defenses. Scarlett finds out that she’s pregnant. Lydia starts dating Steve Beckwith (Dylan Baker).This starts off as a pretty lame teen rom-com. When it takes an unexpected turn, the movie feels like it’s ready to make a honest effort. It keeps trying but the lame teen rom-com continues to reappear. Trent Ford is not capable enough to be the lead. Mandy Moore needs a better partner who is deeper than some floppy hair. It’s a struggle between a quirky indie and a more traditional teen movie. There is enough to make a passable movie. Allison Janney is a fun presence. The movie takes a few too many melodramatic turns. It doesn’t all work but enough of it does.
