I saw this movie in theaters. It's a touching drama about a Canadian boy who can sing sort of and has a questionable haircut. At first his life seems great. He gets to hang out with Miley Cyrus and also that kid from The Pursuit of Happyness. The deeper you get into it though, you realize he is being exploited for money by an adult-sized childman who insists on being called Scooter, even though he's clearly in his 30's. Also people are tricking him into thinking that things that are obnoxious are actually funny. Oh yeah, also the songs he sings are not good songs. Clearly this singing boy has some real obstacles ahead of him. During one of the songs he sings, everyone in the theater was moved nearly to tears and expressed that by waving their cellphones in the air. Well, I should say everyone except for one lady in the back who decided to take it on herself to be the fun police. Moving!
