. that separate good and memorable movie from movie like this . it not entertaining and touching and funny and interesting and at time feel a little sub human . the principal act like they be other worldly and in the bad way and when they be suppose to be relate to each other and the audience . start out conventionally enough . rich kid get new car for graduation but the dean say he can not have the car until after the ceremony . go joy rid nonetheless and and stop in the diner on the wrong side of the track for a quick argument with the local yokel . wise asses the waitress or girlfriend of the head yokel . shockingly and they play chicken until they accidentally burn down the diner they leave three minute earlier ( aren not all diner five foot from the gas station . ) . they tell they have to pay the price in court and so the only reason to get this fish out of water to stay in town be to come up with the scenario that both boy have to assist in the rebuilding of the diner . bad than that and the rich kid in stay with the family of the un rich kid . in the room above the attic . that room above the attic have rescue many a person in need of a bed . rich kid inexplicably be treat well by the girlfriend and who never mention to him that he nearly kill her . this do not bode well and of course and with her boyfriend and and be never fully explain . you do not know why sam ( leelee sobieski ) fall for kelley ( chris klein ) and or why jasper ( josh hartnett ) allow it . chris klein be tolerable and leelee completely intolerable and and josh do not register much of an impression . the character with the most life be the judge that sentence kelley and jasper to help re build the diner . she get off at least one funny remark and which be more than anyone else do . everyone be so morose and humorless that you will feel a little sill if you even think of smile while the movie be on . the end be one way to end the piece and not the most original and but at least it be over . i do not enjoy trash a movie that some little girl somewhere in the world might really love and but since i be not one and i have to . the nice thing i can say about this movie be that it not mean spirited and and although it fail to compel and it innocence and home spun and corny dialogue come from a nice place . 4/10 .
