Negative Positive
Title: surprisingly expansive teen movie
Review: Orange County High school senior Colin Hanks yearns for the intellectual and social freedom of Berkeley, but a switched record means he didn't get admitted, so he and his slacker brother take a road trip to convince the Dean of Admissions that he should be admitted after all. He finds Berkeley as full of snobs, airheads, and wannabes as Orange County, and decides that there's noplace like home. Along the way, his parents reconcile, his brain-dead stepfather recovers, and his two slack-jawed surfer buds fall in love. Expansive, sweet, almost heartwarming.
