About this movie

Thirteen-year-old Kayla endures the tidal wave of contemporary suburban adolescence as she makes her way through the last week of middle school—the end of her thus far disastrous eighth grade year—before she begins high school.

Ratings and reviews

A fantastic coming of age drama which does justice to the peer pressures and anxiety of the most awkward years of our lives. This does such an impressive job of capturing those moments that it can be difficult to watch!

such a great movie... this is so what school is like for some of us.. and yes we get through it. and the dialog was just as i remember (though tad more modern) the actors manage to portray the stifed conversations very well. the acting by the lead girl was very good.

This movie was alright with some good messages but it is NOT a comedy so if you are looking for some light laughs this is not the movie to watch.
