Reviews for All I Want
Taken individually, each scene has interesting qualities. However, as a whole, director Jeffrey Porter fails to bring it all together.
[P]allid teen comedy [that] tries... hard to be cutesy and precious and adorably wacky...
The story is ultimately stillborn, failing to generate much sympathy as a coming-of-age tale
