Quotes:
[Roy sits at Beatrice's table]
Beatrice Leep: What is your problem?
Roy Eberhardt: I think you're the one with the problem. Beatrice, I've got no idea why you're mad about what happened on the bus. You're not the one who got choked, and you're not the one who got punched in the nose. So I'm only going to say this once. If I did something to upset you, I'm sorry. It wasn't on purpose. Next time you've got a problem, just tell me, and then we'll sit down and talk about it like civilized human beings.
Beatrice Leep: Civilized.
Roy Eberhardt: Are we straight on this?
[Beatrice just glares]
Roy Eberhardt: Good. I'm glad we had this chance to get to know each other just a little bit better.

Soccer Pal #2: He's kind of cute, don't you think?

Against all odds, three kids take it into their hands to make a change for the better., 5 May 2006
10/10
Author: fam143 from United States

I took my younger niece to an early showing and she LOVED it (I enjoyed it myself as well). I don't need to explain the plot, since the movie remains completely true to the award-winning, top-selling book by famed author Carl Hiaasen. The movie takes the popular book and layers it with beautiful cinematography (I want to go to Florida now!), humor (thanks to funny-man, Luke Wilson and some new-comers), and Great music! I have to get to get a Jimmy Buffet CD now! I know a movie is good when I get goose-bumps in the end. Overall, it was great family film that I felt comfortable taking my younger niece to. I'd recommend it to any and everyone.
