I'm very torn on this film. On one hand, I think it was a callback to my time in junior high when people talked about things that they didn't understand and there was a lot of things that brought up memories and made me laugh. The ending 15 minutes with Max going through girlfriends every week and crying every time reminded me so much of Junior High.
On the other hand, I don't know why a parent would let their kid be in this movie. The crass language, the sexual overtones of almost every scene. While it was done in a somewhat innocent way to illustrate how these kids were still kids despite talking like they were grown ups, there were times that it was completely over-the-top.
The funniest parts of the movie to me were the dialogue with them just walking down the street where they were misusing words and phrases, and I think I was probably the only one laughing in the theater during those times. They did the subtle stuff really well.
The over the top scenes were too much over the top and didn't strike me as funny but more crass for being the sake of crass. I cringed a few times.
