This is a Nickledeon movie bringing together six of their stars three from past series and Ariana Grande who is on two current shows, Jeanette McCurdy on Sam and Kat, and Ciara Bravo on Big Time Rush, all three shows are ones that I do watch. I really enjoyed it because of the decent writing and acting. It is not the usual teen film with overt sexuality by under aged teens. Instead it is just a funny reverse con job on the name sake of the show, Swendell, just spelled a little different. As the show develops the six youngun's come up with an elaborate plot to get back an extremely pricey old time baseball card. The ensuing high jinxes, subplots and schemes make for an entertaining and funny movie. I must admit that I had no idea the the foreign thug and his two goons where going to turn out to be McCurdy's on screen dad and two other actors from his acting studio. A pretty neat turn in my opinion. The only thing I don't understand is why the inventor dad's arm didn't play a role in the end.
