Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Next time, director Robbins and his screenwriters should spend a few hours inside a real high school rather than re-hashing stock stereotypes from bad '80s movies.
Talks a pretty good game, but in the end the numbers just don't add up to much.
A bizarre mismatch of The Breakfast Club and Mission: Impossible.
Is there not something just plain wrong with a movie about cheating on exams that's less fun than taking one?
