The movie begins very differently from how it ends. At the start it is easy to see the negative tilt on the showy religious displays and the hypocrisy and close-mindedness of the characters. However, after Mary discovers that she is pregnant, she reexamines her faith, testing what she was taught (standing in front of a church and swearing to see if God would do anything, one of the only instances of questionable language). The supporting characters are seen in shifting ways--Mary's clique of friends abandons her, while the school rebel befriends her and becomes her support. In the end, this movie has a good message about discovering for yourself, not trusting first impressions, acceptance and tolerance.

I came across this movie while channel surfing and was pleasantly surprised by it. It opens with a overly "wholesome," god-fearing, needlessly sheltered and superstitious clique in a christian school. (Satire is obvious from the start, but not obnoxious or disrespectful.) Real-life issues, such as homosexuality and teen pregnancy, are quickly introduced and cause a great deal of confliction within the characters. The school is then divided between the judgemental "good christians" and the struggling "sinners," who show more compassion towards one another than their holier-than-thou counterparts. The moral of the story is tolerance. But it also poses the question "What would Jesus do?" with the most unlikely characters pulling through to answer that question in their own actions. IE: The rebellious non-christian girl in the begining of the movie shows she has a bigger heart and more insight than most of her christian classmates when she offers a pregnant teen her help and friendship. I think the rating was appropriate, as many of the situations portrayed in the movie are things all teenagers have to struggle with in some way.

I saw this movie in the theatre and laughed throughout it. It does have some questionable scenes in it, and may not be for more conservative parents or families. I think that there are a lot of points and discussions that could come out of the movie. It would be very wise to make sure to talk with your children about the movie before or afterward, because there may be some awesome points to discuss, that could turn into some cool conversations. If you are a religious family, don't disregard the movie right away, because it is an awesome eye opener.

This movie was great in a way that other movies aren't. It didn't have any of the stupid teen sexual jokes. It also has a wonderful funny but moving script. I loved this movie!!! I would suggest it for 13+ and would give it 20 stars if possible! Definitely not appropriate for younger middle schoolers or elementry age kids!

This movie is really funny, but there is really strong sexual content. The start of the movie is when Mary has sex with her boyfriend after he tells her he is gay, because she thinks it will "de-gay" him. After that, there is a lot more sexual references. There is one use of the f-word, and a lot of s-words. Some teens smoke and drink. But this is a really funny movie and tolerance is a theme.
