Acting: ranging from awkward to mediocre.
Story: it has key elements of growing pains but that's about it. No twisted plot, no surprise elements, nothing but the obvious.
Script and editing: timing in most of the scenes is completely off, due to the inexperience of mainly the lead actor and his inability to make it all believable. He even smiles at moments where he shouldn't. He's not a 5 year old now is he? This could not be saved by some clever editing apparently, which is lacking throughout most of the movie anyway.
A small part of the budget seems to have went to filming this and a larger part must have been put into good use by influencing the IMDb score because it certainly ain't worth a 7.x/10!
I gave it a 5/10 because it's a comedy that made me laugh once. Which is usually one time more than most non-animated comedies. It's a movie I couldn't even remember the title of the day after. Seen it, warning people about it, moving on. Still, making a movie and bringing it to theaters takes effort so there you go, 5/10.
score 5/10
