Really nutty after-school special masquerading as a feature film. With such problems as braces, no love life, squabbling parents, and a mirror that talks back to her, what's a girl (Allison Mack) to do on the eve of her Sweet Sixteen? Throw a romantic dinner to keep mom and dad together, of course. Silly, mindless, but harmless fun.

But check out the director -- Eric Stoltz! How did a guy more often associated with tales of murderous drug lords and down-'n'-out slackers come to direct a teen girls' flick?

Riddles of the universe, dear reader. Riddles of the universe.
