Crazy Credits

Three versions of the credits exist. The edited MTV version shows a segment about what the film was based on. The first time the movie aired on MTV, the music video for Fenix, TX's "All My Fault" (theme from the movie) was shown on the credits. The DVD omits both those endings and instead shows bloopers and outtakes from the film.

---

Alternate Versions

The first two begining credits saying "Once Upon a Time Films" and "an Allan Moyle film" are not shown on the edited MTV version. It simply starts the film at the part where it says the name of the film on the screen. The edited MTV version shows an alternate take on the sex scene in the car. Instead of showing the sex inside of the car, it shows the outside window fogged up with moaning in the background. A hand then swipes over the window like on "Titanic".

User Reviews

A good movie by MTV standards.

The movie was okay, at least for an MTV made for television jobber. The story was a little cliche and there were some bad moments, but overall it was good enough. The acting in many cases though, was actually well done. All of the teens were very believable (as they should be) and the grownups were equally well played. The movie also had it's funny moments. Not much can be said for the cinematography or direction, they were pretty standard fare, but on the whole they were satisfactory. Overall, a good movie, could have been better, but for MTV it was good.
