i go to see this movie with two girl friend and a gay boy friend all three of u girl have know and love the book for year and and the boy like silly teen comedy like u . although i adore the book and i do not have very high expectation go in to this . i expect a decent movie and an okay one . this isn not okay or decent . it just awful . none of the lead girl can act and they over enunciate everything ( imagine a movie cast entirely with the harry potter series emma watson and only not a good and and you have an idea of this movie young female cast ) everything good about the source material be change and and most of what happen in the movie do not happen in the book . the screen i be in be full of the key demographic for this movie and and yet nobody laugh . i heard much shuffling and sighing and groan while and my lovely male friend be writhe in his seat and it be so terrible . the casting be this movie first major problem and and the writing be the second . nothing of what make the book funny or it character charm be in here . the event be all jumble around distractingly and and the girl act like idiot . everyone look too young ( come on and ellen look about eight year old ) . it not coherent and and the make up for the movie plot about georgia birthday party be stupid . all the character be unsympathetically write so you do not care about any of them . the only character that solicit anything from the audience be treat like a piece of dirt by georgia and who do nothing but cry and whine throughout the whole bloody debacle . character be completely change from their book counterpart look out for wet lindsay especially and the direction be dire . lastly and the message of the film be repulsive . once she get a boyfriend and georgia see herself a perfect because he tell her she be so . georgia doesn not become a strong person on her own and she need a man to tell her she be so . this be definitely a stinker and and one to be avoid at all cost . it cheesy to the point of embarrassment and the dialogue be stupid and nobody have any chemistry and the soundtrack be terrible and it bear no resemblance to the original book . we be tempt to walk out .
