When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

First of all, I may be biased because I find all "coming of age" movies with a deep plot and dramatic storyline great like kids, thirteen, havoc etc. So the following review might stem from that but I will try my best to be as fair as possible and be as critical as I can be.For a movie that tackles an issue that's borderline taboo for this day and age while being portrayed by barely legal characters, it was done in a tasteful manner. It has this shock factor kids who aren't fully socially and sexually awaken yet and for the parents who think 'the kids are all right' (lol see what I did there? Moving on then.) and is safe in their own little bedrooms and their strict household rules. It makes you think and question what is right and what is wrong, who is sane and who is not. But at then end of it all you just don't care. Frighteningly enough, I think that's what friendship kinda is. You hope for the best and do your best but it all turns into a mess one way or another. It's the kind of movie that leaves you feeling sad and empty at the end yet relieved and fascinated at the same time. Some may come to love it, some may not. But one thing I am sure of is that you will never forget it. It will leave a mark somehow, somewhere. If not in your thoughts, then in your soul.

I just recently saw the movie Normal Adolescent Behavior, I saw the commercial for the movie, and thought it looked really interesting. I thought the movies theme was great, "group sex" is something that isn't very uncommon these days, some people think that the movies tries to portray all teenagers, but in actuality it just portray a single "family" of friends, and should not be taken in offense. I thought the story line was great, some other people think that the story was "jumpy" and switched moods fast, but thats what teenage life is like, one minutes content, the next erratic, so it really portrayed teenage life correctly. Anyways, i really enjoyed the movie, and the acting was wonderful.

I'm surprised this movie has such a low rating, I just watched it last night and was surprised by how much I liked it. It's the story of a group of friends who are in a monogamous relationship with each other because they think it's better and more fulfilling than the alternative of teenage dating. Amber Tamblyn as Wendy meets the boy next door and begins to question the arrangement she shares with her 5 best friends. I thought she had great chemistry with the leading man Sean and that they were both surrounded by some great young actors including Kelli Garner as one of the group of best friends.I always like Amber Tamblyn because I think she chooses roles that go against normal stereotypes of teenage girls and portrays unique but still realistic characters.It was sexy without being offensive and didn't try to be too touching or emotional but there was depth to the story and layers of emotion. All in all I thought this movie was different and that it had a strange appeal to it that I still can't quite put my finger on but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

It was late one night and I decided to watch Normal Adolescent Behavior on lifetime and thought it was an interesting film. It's about a girl Wendy and her five closest best friends who engage in sexual actives together so they don't have to go through the heart break of having boyfriends and girlfriends and breaking up and hooking up and all of that. And so her life is fine the way it is. Until this boy moves in next door. She starts to fall in love with this boy and she starts to fall in love with her. One day he asks her to give up everything that she has ever known her relationship with her best friends the way she entirely lives her life to be with him and Wendy must make a choice between him and the others. I think it could have a been a bit more raunchy to be more realistic. And the first part of the story line was strong enough to carry a whole movie let alone an outside romance with this boy. I thought they could have put more of the relationship between Wendy and her friends into the film and that it focused too much on her trying to get with this boy and individualize herself from the group.
