Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
This movie, if not memorable, offers a bit of entertainment at least. Two skater kids want to go to a big competition, Mega Dega, but they must evade their strict teenage nanny while his parents are away from home. Hilarity ensues.The tone of this comedy is very much like a cartoon. I can say it's like a live action version of an episode of a Butch Hartman's show (ala Fairly Oddparents) starred by a pair of brothers reminiscent of the Sprouse twins. Actually there is some scenes animated.You will find some known faces here, like Ariel Winter or Janet Varney, and even a cameo by the band Metrostation, but Lindsay Shaw (Moze in "Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide") get the best part as the neurotic nanny. Not bad, not great. Nice for a delayed game's afternoon.
