7/10
Decent adaptation of the book.

Unlike many of the reviewers, I didn't see anything wrong with Delta's performance, though I do think her true talent is musical.

Why are so many people griping about them not looking young enough? People in their early 20s play teens all the time, it's much easier and more economical than getting real teens to do it because of child labour laws. That's probably why they aged the characters up in the first place.

As I said, it was a decent adaptation, but I loathed that they felt the need to add sexual/romantic tension between Erica and Barry. No. Just ... no. Erica might be a bit silly, but Barry is a toad (even more so in the movie), and she knows it.
