Placid Lake has always been different. As an odd fish in a sea of mediocrity, his brilliant ideas are bound to get him into more trouble than success. So when he finds himself flying off the school roof and breaking every bone in his body on graduation night, Placid decides to lead a more normal life.

We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.

What are critics saying?

50

Variety by David Stratton

Melds an insightful observational style with some rather clunky satire and the resulting mix is uneven at best.

75

Boston Globe by Ty Burr

For every line of dialogue that's truly, glitteringly acid, though, there are five that are merely clever, and Lee, likable as he is, never really taps into the misery of the teen misfit.
