This has to be one of the worst, most pointless and idiotic films EVER CREATED. It offers zero insight into "Suburbia" by examining a tiny microcosm of brain dead slackers and passes it on as the norm. Well it is far from it. I have lived all over the US and in other countries and I can tell you with 100% assurance NO ONE exists as they do in this wretched film. The people in this movie, stoners and slackers, are just that. Worthless, pathetic and wastes of space. They don't carry on intellectual conversations, they don't ponder the meaning of life, they don't CARE about anything. That is why they are stoners and slackers. They are useless, worthless pathetic excuses for human beings that will never be anything better.
The kids in this movie spend all their time sharing their thoughts on life with innane monologues and trite and meaningless dialogues with each other. It's pretty sad that the writer/director just assumed he could make a movie he knows nothing about which in this case would be modern day suburban kids.
This movie is not interesting, it is not compelling, it is not moving, it is not thought provoking. I felt nothing for any of the characters and was not enlightened in the slightest about what they thought or supposedly felt.
To top it all off, Steve Zahn was a major character in this movie. I don't know about the rest of civilization, but I have a strong distaste for this man. He is annoying and one-dimensional, always playing the mornoic buffoon in every role. He falls just short of being the most annoying movie character in the history of the screen. The overall acting in this film is not terribly bad, but did you ever think why no one even got a thought of an Academy award?
All in all, this movie is a complete joke and highly unfulfilling. It is not a comedy by any means, although a soft chuckle may arise now and then if only from Steve Zahns laughable attempt at acting. I guess you can call it a drama, since everyone seems so dramatic, just like slackers in stoners in real life. Always having intellectual conversations and pondering life. NOT. Terrible, terrible movie. I give it a -100.
