American Teen finds the truth in the trite and the cliched: It's a wonderful look at why growing up is so hard to do.

They all have their stories tell, some more complicated than others.

The whirl of hormones, high hopes and hysterical drama that is high school earns its close-up in American Teen, a smart and revealing look at the Class of 2006 in Warsaw, Indiana.

My only gripe is that the relentless pressure to be a winner in American culture is exhausting to watch.

rotten:
It's a lightly amusing film but it's also an unchallenging one which reinforces presumptions about kids rather than surprising with new insights. It floats in the shallow end of filmmaking.
