This is an incredibly sappy, trite movie. The acting mostly comes off as amateur (albeit the high end of amateur), which is kind of surprising, given the experience of some of the actors.
GENERAL SPOILERS FOLLOW
The character of Molly's boyfriend is such a jerk that it's hard to see what she sees in him (and a real shame that she never learns the depths of his crumminess). And it's hard to qualify this as a "coming of age" story, as I don't really feel like Harry has really gotten any more grown up by the end. Also, I think this movie is misrepresented in most of the descriptions which say that Harry and Molly fall in love -- Molly never falls in love with Harry, so this isn't really one of those "forbidden love" type movies at all, just a long story about a boy's crush. I'm really sorry I just wasted almost two hours watching this.
