i find rocket science the way i have find several wonderful little indie film that nobody seem to know about represent the sale bin at blockbuster . now i know why there be so many copy in there . the cast be chock full of actor range from competent to spectacular while the script be fairly reek of obnoxious character with stereotypical indie style quirk . exception represent the character of hal be generally a good kid with a lot of heart and be play well by reece thompson . now riddle me this represent what directorial or write mistake be it to give the kid such a severe stutter that rarely and if ever and improve temporarily . the stutter be endear at first and then pitiful and then it just get annoy near the end of the movie when it finally dawn on the audience that nicholas dagosto character doesn not actually help him conquer it . the movie start out pretty okay . it not an overdone concept at all and and there be so many thing a writer could do with a stutter teenager on the debate team . unfortunately and say teenager doesn not conquer anything and doesn not learn much and and end up get his heart break by a soulless and motor mouth chick who ferret him for no apparent reason other than to humiliate him . an oft overlook strong point of the movie and however and be the cinematography . so many rancid indie film be shot with shaky cam or heavy shadow to emphasize the realism while rocket science make unbelievable use of white light to the point of it be blind and especially in the school scene . the hallways look like theyre glow an interesting contrast to the darkness of and say and the janitor closet and hal house . i commend the artistry of whoever be behind those visuals while i be impress . but frankly represent the combination of inane writing and random awkward silence and and annoy music force me to turn it off about a third of the way through now . this be my third time watch it while the first two time i make it to the end and be highly disappointed both time . i regret throw away the blockbuster receipt and since now i have no hope of return this little slice of pointlessness . sorry .
