Teenager Keith is a high-school student and mechanic who lives with his working-class family. His father's ambition is for him to go to college, but Keith disagrees because he's more interested in the Arts. His best friend is tomboy Watts, and the girl of his dreams is the popular Amanda.

When she breaks up with her wealthy boyfriend Hardy Jenns, Keith invites Amanda out on a date and she accepts to get even with Hardy. But the rich boy plans a scheme to humiliate the couple with his friends. Meanwhile, Watts discovers her true feelings for Keith.

User reviews

Karen Hernandez

2/10

Furthermore, I felt that the soundtrack failed to reflect the different social dynamics and conflicts present in the film. Given the working-class background of Keith and his family, as well as the contrast with the wealthy characters like Hardy Jenns, I expected the music to offer a more nuanced and layered representation of these aspects. Instead, the soundtrack felt superficial and did not add to the overall impact of the movie.
