Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe three child actors were often given lines and words to say with no context or explanation for what they meant. Director Gene Stupnitsky and producer Lee Eisenberg refused to answer any questions the children had and told them to ask their mothers instead.
- GoofsIncorrectly reported as goof: When Max pulls out and repeatedly fires the paintball gun, it appears to not have an air supply, so could not work. In fact it has a (small) Powerlet or 90 g single-use cartridge attached by an adapter to the tank port. It also has a small hopper, so could with that gas and paintball supply just barely have inflicted the mayhem shown, but probably not much more before it ran out of one or the other set of supplies.
- Crazy creditsSPOILER: For the Point Grey logo, It Shows drawings on a desk. One of the drawings says "Thor = Sippy Cup" Which is a big thing in the movie.

Featured review
The movie delivered what it meant to deliver
I can see that most of the bad reviews target the "normalisation" of such an "outrageous" teen behaviour; I understand why it can be debatable, but this is a comedy and gives a comedic spin to a subject that (weather parents like it or not) all teens are experiencing: awkward curiosity and transition to sexual/romantic/gender interest. And, an important aspect: it is clearly advertised for 15+ audience.
Yes, it was cliche; it didn't present any innovative screenplay, some jokes were obviously hyperbolised, but: it was actually a hilarious film. The comedic experience and overall journey throughout the movie was well written; the acting was good; the bond between the 3 bin bags members was quite well portrayed. I like that it carried also a message about friendship; the cast was well selected and diverse; the main characters were actually very strongly individualised which I think gave a big plus to the "glue" of the story. Overall I would recommended for a fun trip to the cinema, but definatelly not a movie for a more conservative taste in comedies.
