Geek Charming (2011)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

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.

I think that this is the worst movie I have seen in my life. Where to start: It has absolutely no narrative, it starts from nowhere, nothing happens and then there's no result. I'm not sure what was the intention behind the absolutely horrible jokes, for example the 'spelling every word out', did they plan to start a new trend? What was the meaning behind that movie at all? How did it even made it to the screens is what I don't understand. I wouldn't go on about it if the review wouldn't have to be 10 lines long, i basically said what I wanted to say in the first sentence. Please Hollywood, don't waste space like this. another line, and another line and another line and another line OK, I loved that girl in Modern Family, but in this movie it was just sad acting. And the guy was also a really bad actor.

if you watch the TV show Modern Family and like the charisma of Sarah Hyland and wish you'd see her most often in the show , then you'll be pleased about this movie cause shes there the whole movie , its all about her . shes so adorable and such a good actress with cute faces , you cant help but to like her . the movie by itself is very decent , if you take it as it is ... a mean girl made for t.v . but it has a few laughs and the performance of sarah hyland made it very enjoyable . overall i didn't felt like a waste 1:30 of my time , i even watched it twice i rated 8 out of 10 for this type of movie , its no shawshank or one flew over the cuckoo nest but i rated accordly as what it is . a lightweight enjoyable Disney TV movie . watch it for Sarah Hyland

I literally laughed out loud when I read one IMDb reviewer start reviewing this as it was some sort of artistic piece of expression. They used terms like 'innocuous' and 'film technique.' This is a Disney made for TV movie made for 11-14 year olds. You must review the film from that stand point or don't waste your time. This is not for adults. This isn't meant to be raunchy or sexy or outside of the box. It was meant to be fun and cute and that is what it is. Still its not the most fun it could have been and essentially is very shallow in its performance but young girls will likely still get a chuckle out of it. In fact the whole movie is probably what an episode of Hannah Montana or another Disney type show would have done only a few years ago. Still the movie is watchable and has some laughs and some genuinely heart felt moments as well. But in true Disney style everything is placed perfectly in a little box and each character is painted line by line to fit the story.Sarah Hyland has hit stardom on the phenomenal and brilliant TV Series Modern Family. I'm not sure that makes her ready to carry a movie but she does well enough playing the uppity Disney snob turned into the sweet misunderstood princess. She certainly plays the 'mean girl' part of it well enough but the story has to really force out her inner good side to get the plot moving. Matt Prokop is actually really good as the nerdy good guy that falls in love. He fits the Disney charmer perfectly and has good charisma and him and Hyland have really good chemistry making the film even more cute. There is a big supporting cast and they are all decent in their clichéd roles but none of them stand out particularly. They are mostly there for laughs or plot development.Director Jeffrey Hornaday is a rather strange choice for directing what is essentially a kids film. He hasn't got a lot of experience behind the camera but has worked on a lot of big Hollywood films. So I think he took this in stride and just did the basics for the movie and overall that's okay. The film works for what it is. It doesn't try to be outstanding and in many ways that is its charm as well as its fault. But what it all boils down to is that its a cute, fun little romance flick for the pre-teen audience. Its clean and simple and not exactly a big budget production but probably worth watching with your kids. 6/10

it was worth the watch. you could see how the film was going to end up a mile away but that didn't take anything away fro the fat it was still good to put on. it was Disneyed up a bit as well so people into that sort of thing would enjoy the film. the way the film went about the "nerdy" guy showing off his talents in documenting a film and then showing off that the popular girl has a different side to her and is actually a nice person and that everyone in the school an talk to anyone else even though they are into different things. It was overall good watch though me and my girlfriend enjoyed it. It ended well as well so you don't go away annoyed after watching it all.
