starsYOU KISSED THE WRONG GIRL
The film centers around Bess (Crystal Reed) and her crush on Scott (Lucas Till). Bess is the socially awkward new kid. She seemingly lives alone in a house while working at a book store. Scott has looks, brains, and athletic ability. All the girls drool over him. Jules (Sarah Bolger) is his girlfriend who he breaks up with because he needs to concentrate. (Seriously, can you believe a guy wrote this?)

Other people include teammate Casey (Preston Davis) who believes Scott is a ball hog. Scott’s dad is protective and is always going out to work. And Jeffrey (Reid Ewing) has a crush on Bess. Their relationship is encouraged by an older woman and confidant (Meredith Salenger) who works at the bookshop.

Accidents happen to people around Scott. We get to see the arm or hand of the person who is revealed to us about an hour into the film when our fairly decent mystery turns into “Misery.”

I couldn’t help think that the song “Love Stinks” would have made a good title track had they made this film 30 years ago…before the target audience existed. The film covers the many aspect of teen angst as we see it cross the line from “cute to creepy.” As part of the older crowd, I had to laugh when two teens standing on opposites sides of a glass door opt to have a conversation by texting. Open your mouths!

At one point Scott finds a note in his locker. The movie didn’t give me tie to read it. I had to pause the film.

I like quirky crush films where we know who the killer is and see the odd if not comical things she does. This isn’t that film and it would have worked better my way. This is a film for those girls whose first crush still weighs heavy.
