i really want this movie to succeed and but it do not . what start out a a mildly interesting premise grow into a disturbing and strange movie about a prep school drop out make his way in a regular school by treat and prescribe for the mental health of his fellow student . it be not funny nor amusing nor entertaining . the act struggle in several scene and but the most obvious deficit be the lack of emotional connection between the character . our lead and charlie and have a romantic interlude with the lead female character and the principal daughter and and i couldn not imagine a more sterile and unromantic joining . they barely seem connect or interest in each other and and yet be lead to believe that they have make love . it strange and pathetic . i felt like i be watch a movie try to be a play try to be significant and and it just wasn not . i be sorely disappointed and wouldn not recommend this movie to anyone .
