Really? My wife and 17 year old son watched it with me, and we thought it was one of the best movies of this past year. It was a little strange, no doubt..... some parts, I thought were "over the top"... but, in the end, the message was: "No matter how strange you are, or messed up... the love of FAMILY trumps all". And, a sub-message was, "Youth believes in all possibilities". Both are OK messages as far as I'm concerned.
