Sara's got a sense of humor about how very uncool she is, and she proves to be a game girl.

A refreshingly friendly view of a romance between people of different pigmentation, an area where more respectable pictures still wimp out.

Squanders nice performances by Julia Stiles and Sean Patrick Thomas by confining them and the supporting cast to cookie-cutter roles and hackneyed inner-city subplots.

Formulaic teen romance with an MTV spin.

Ultimately, this talented twosome [Stiles and Thomas] can only do so much with a script that continually lets them down at about every turn.

Stiles and Thomas supply what this movie needs most: a heartbeat.

Performances throughout are solidly decent.

The intent is a feel-good film, sort of an American version of Billy Elliot and I didn't believe a minute of it.
