Reviews
Roger Ebert wrote in the Chicago Sun-Times on January 30, 2004 that there were some similarities between this film and The Breakfast Club , including dialogue. Its entertainment value is based too much on the intended "trickery".
The lexicon of international films wrote that the film was a "teen comedy developed according to standardized formulas". In the course of the film, “the young people will come to more mature insights”, but its “moral message” is “just as poor as the entertainment value of the film”.
Awards
Scarlett Johansson was nominated for the Teen Choice Award as “Choice Breakout Movie Star - Female” .
The German Film and Media Evaluation FBW in Wiesbaden awarded the film the title valuable.
