It is a performances centric movie

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

100 Things to do before high school was a TV show that aired on nickelodeon. but it was then cancelled after just 25 episodes even though the show had so many fans world wide. even after all these years still there are so many people out there waiting for a second season of their beloved TV show. since they all loved to be in 8th grade why not start the show with a whole new frame for another season!

Um, let's see, well to start off, I must admit it is an entertaining show, but let's look at the reason for that: It is almost an exact copy of Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide which was a show I loved in my childhood. Scott Fellows must have thought, "oh no one will remember that show 10 years later" when he created this. Sure it's funny, but all I can think of is how similar it is to Ned in almost every way. That aside, perhaps that's the only reason I'm drawn to watch it, perhaps it wouldn't interest me if it didn't remind me of Ned, I mostly search for the similarities when I'm watching it and find it hard to enjoy as its own story. However if you never seen Ned's declassified school survival guide, this is your next best option for cheesy (genuinely quite funny) shenanigans from middle schoolers now that Ned is off the air for quite a few years already. Definitely a nice comedic show for today's generation who hasn't seen Ned I suppose, but still in 2nd place when you compare the 2.

Why would an adult even watch this program? Well, there are two reasons. First, I have two preteen sons, and I'm interested in what they _may_ be induced to watch, though their intelligence presupposes them to favor content way beyond _this_ drivel. Second, I am entranced by Nickelodeon's endless experiments in subtly forced social engineering, in particular, in convincing children that there's something wrong with them if 25 to 33 percent of their friends aren't black.Others have pointed out that this show strongly resembles "Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide," and, indeed, it does. (Of course, how far can one go in retreading the same old material?) What offends me the most is not the stupidity, but the incredible phoniness of the forced troika of protagonists. There is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY that Fenwick--with his offensively in-your-face speech patterns and Maasai warrior-type body language--would be of the REMOTEST social interest to appearance-conscious C.J. or timid Christian. It doesn't work on any level, much as the strainedly nutty, profoundly offensive behavior (not to mention, physically revolting body language) of Cookie didn't work alongside Ned and Moze in "Ned's." (Nor did it escape my notice--from the demographic propriety section--that, while not "in your face" about it, C.J. is obviously Hispanic.)One final word: I am disappointed that an unbelievably talented voice actor like Jack de Sena, who has demonstrated his remarkable ad-libbing capabilities in many contexts, would waste time with the undistinguished role of the guidance counselor in "100 Things." I guess he, too, needs to earn a few ducats. You can't live on "Avatar: Airbender" (now THAT is a FABULOUS show!) residuals all your life . . .

On a growing list of fun shows! You, your kids, your friends, your kids' friends have a new show to try not to miss. You guys! The story is told as a memory of the young lady , C.J. , who is the heroine, her singing dream reveals some terrible truths about life, getting older, moving on and losing friends and associates dear to you in your youth... and she sets out to be rather than a victim of time -the master of the craft... via the first of 100 things to do before she , they , each , we , all get to be adult....the acting, actress and actors and the adults here are best, best, best. The action is nearly hilarious as the twists and turns, top notch.This may be the finest of silly and "moralistic" teen adventures as i tell you by way of prediction it shall grow on you. And you shall be glad for it.
