"The movie is more than just punk rock and a cute face."
4 stars (Worth A Look)

I know a lot of people are going to trash this movie for their own reasons, but I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of it.

Okay, so I am a fan of Ben Affleck and punk music which this movie has both of, but does that make me a biased reviewer? I think not. The movie is more than just punk rock and a cute face.

Everyone who goes to college has doubts about their future at one point or another. This movie addresses those doubts in a rather funny and fashionable way. Yes, the movie is overflowing with angsty dialogue, but that is the whole point of the flick.

The only part of the movie that I didn't think fit well with the overall feel of the flick was Jack's (Ben Affleck's character) attachment to his ex-girlfriend. I guess it was supposed to fit in with the whole scheme of lack of change, but I just didn't dig it.

It's fun to watch with a bunch of friends and a bunch of beers.
