Taking the Plunge Trailers

After 5 years, 16-year-old Gaby Roberge, returned to Sainte-Victoire High School with a rebellious air and a dirty attitude. Gaby can't stop thinking about graduating and moving on to CÉGEP where she will meet more intelligent young people. Peggy Lamothe, the school principal, decided to take Gaby under her wing so she could take advantage of her last year in college. She forces Gaby to integrate with the young people in her life and be less aggressive and more social.

CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
jocedeg Written, directed and acted like a very typical US-made teen comedy. All the ingredients are there: good looking teen cast, pop-sounding but generic soundtrack, a few local Quebec celebrities thrown in the mix like Olympic diver Alex Despaties in a surprisingly well acted supporting role, and you get your average moderately entertaining flick.Sure, all the roles are stereotypes but what do you expect ? Once you get over the annoyingly clumsy product placement, like for Super Écran, a pay-TV broadcaster that has it's logo in the most incredibly stupid and hard to believe spots, like gym towels and coffee cups, in a school, no less... you have to endure a low-budget music score and predictable plot.But, hey: all those kids do a decent acting job. Fans of Eva Green should look for Catherine de Lean as Julie, the resident bitch: she could be her younger sister.
