i can not believe that people can call this film brilliant with a straight face . dare someone say . it boggle the mind . i can not think of a single redeeming feature for this film . the character be unbelievable and the story insipid and the resolution trite and predicatable . amaze . it actually be so bad and i finally register on imdb to leave comment . i couldn not keep quiet . i have see a lot of other comment from people that this movie be try to make a statement . i have read comment that the movie be a brilliant dark comedy . i have hear people say it be a satire of the teen comedy genre . do you see a pattern . neither do i. that because this movie doesn not know what it be try to be . there be a few half hearted attempt at humor ( which be far from funny ) there be a few touching moment ( which never work in the slightest and since the character be so one dimentional ) a perfect example be the love story between carolyn and pumpkin . first and she be digusted by him and then he say her name . the next scene and she be in love with him . boom . like that . yeah and i can see that . i be so frustrated with this movie . maybe that what the director want . maybe he want a reaction . i suppose and if that the case and he get what he want out of me . i just wish my disgust wasn not what he have be aim for .
