Rocket Science review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 09/03/12
A realistic look at High-school students. Hal Hefner (Reece Thompson) has a stutter and was invited by the star of the Plainsboro High School debate team Ginny (Anna Kendrick). Performances especially Kendrick, were solid. Soundtrack was interesting but its strength is the screenplay. One of the best lines: Ben - " Life is nothing but repetition, the same thing over and over....The fights you fight today are the fights you fight until you die." and Hal Hefner - "You know, someday you'll find love and then everything will be different." Rocket Science is sometimes dark, lacks humor, but it's point about adolescent angst, individuality, sex and mystery of love.
