    Different from other Teen movies
    Great coming of age teen movie that explores the angst of the 'First Time'. Unlike most teen flicks, the characters don't fall into stereotypes, and they act their age in an intelligent way that does not lean towards Dawson Creek territory. Great from start to finish, and different from most movies in that genre.The teens are normal, the girl and boy you and I know, and now some picture perfect model. The cast were excellent in their roles in fact I have also watched the lead character in Teen Wolf and this is quite a departure from the role he plays in that. The best thing, however, about the movie is the romance was relate-able and normal, and not some unrealistic love story you only seen in movies. What a great ending!
