At first glance more stylish than its peers, Full of It rapidly slips into the cliches of the genre.

Reviews for Full of It
There is a glimmer of comedy, but it's quickly swamped in overextended gags and broad caricatures.
It's still better than a lot of teen comedies with much bigger budgets.
There have been worse ideas for teen comedies, but few have been as badly executed as this one.
The genre usually gets the super-slick, smash-cutting, roving-camera treatment, but Full of It feels oddly low key despite the fantastical elements. Some pre-fab parts don't quite fit together.
The film is smarter than most teen comedies, and Pinkston can play a dork without venturing into Steve Urkel territory.
A wish fulfillment fantasy of staggering silliness, both smirkingly cutesy and gratingly offensive, this is one for the movie ash heap. Watching it, your heart goes out to the actors, floundering through the cliches.
