This was a great movie to watch with my 13 year old and I would say is a great movie for this teenage agecgroup all though I did enjoy it myself and had a good laugh. As far as teen comedy goes this one has a good laugh factor and has a lot of teen issues covered like image and boyfriends which is what all good teem movies are made of.
Megan is a special ops agent which is quite exciting for a teen until she fakes her own death and ends up being fostered into a small community where she has to take on a new challenge High School!! For a special ops agent who doesn't have any idea to show compassion this is quite the wee challenge so we have plenty of laughs as we watch her try to navigate these new challenges.
Of course there are lessons to be learned as she learns that the hot guy is not always the best choice and has to fight to win back the attention of her nerdy friend who she has fallen for in a big way. So plenty of lessons on love, life, friendship and fitting in something all teenagers have to deal with in high school.
I found that although the film wasn't the best teen flick I have ever watched it was certainty worth watching and who wouldn't enjoy a bit of teen special ops agent come high school sweetheart. I would definitely watch it again and recommend to other teens or for family movie nights. Not a perfect score but it still scored pretty high in my books
