I love it, but I know it's bad, but I also think it was intentionally what it is, which makes it good or even great.

If you can unlock that teenage feeling of wonder at the potential size and scope of the world and, at the right age at the right time, feeling like that world is your oyster, that's the feeling in which to watch this movie.

I refuse, however, to get into that feeling-zone for other 'high school' movies; they're stupid...
