We arrived just in time to see what was the highlight for me -- a Jimmy Eat World song in the movie. That was probably the best scene. My room mate says they changed the words, but who cares. Good bands can brighten up even the lamest of movies, of which NBK certainly is. Drew Barrymore was a loser in high school (yeah right) and now is an aspiring reporter whose first assignment is to hang out with the cool kids at a high school and find a story. Now we're asked to believe that a 25 year old sexy Drew Barrymore isn't accepted by the "cool kids". Well, with the cool kids that exist in this movie, who *would* want to be accepted by them? They're all MORONS. Some of the stupidest people that I've ever seen portrayed on a movie screen. They're only 1-2 years younger than me, but when their English teacher mentions Gordie Howe, they all give him blank stares. Anyway, Drew does not find a story, but she does fall in love with her English teacher. The film moves quickly, fortunately, and before you know it, it comes to its predictable end. The 1-800-CALL-ATT guy plays Drew's brother, a sports-loving pedophile, and while his performance is with ease and almost good, every time he opens his mouth you expect him to say "Call 1-800-CALL-ATT!".
