WHAT'S IT ABOUT? A detective story at high-school! Loner kid investigates the disappearance of his ex-girlfriend, uncovering student crime-ring in the process.

ANY GOOD? Weird and original. Imagine a Humphrey Bogart noir flick gatecrashed by Saved By The Bell.

QUOTE FOR THE POSTER: 'Bugsy Malone goes through puberty!'

REASON TO WATCH: You read the premise and thought 'that sounds good' rather than 'that sounds like an overflowing bucket of cattle dung'.
