Getting There (2002 Video)
1/10
DUDE! WOO-HOO! This is like...ya know, TERRIBLE!
25 June 2002
I have watched hundreds of movies in my life (probably over a thousand) and this is literally the WORST movie I have seen so far. I cannot believe I managed to watch all of it. And the only reason I watched it in the first place was IMDb's current grade of 6.5 and a positive review of one of the critics.

Let me take you through the story: It's about a group of teenagers, who want to go to Utah to watch the Winter Olympics and the only thing the movie counts on is the stupidest possible problems these kids have to go through. Flat tyre, stolen car, wrong plane, missing the bus, etc. And these problems are "solved" in most proposterous ways: after the car is stolen, the parents simply pay for the plane tickets. They land in the wrong city and there are no other flights, they take a 500$ cab ride. They take the bus and end up in the middle of nowhere, a waitress in a diner offers them a ride in an old pickup truck, then later it turns out her father is a millionaire and he flies them to Utah with his private jet. And then, of course, we witness some "love" scenes which really don't even have any basis and the music throughout the movie is inappropriate. But the dialogues take the first prize: Who on earth wrote the script? A 13-year-old? The cast: a bunch of fairly attractive youngsters with what seem to be empty heads.

In short: Do NOT watch this movie! It makes movies like: Not another teen movie, Scary Movie 2 and the like seem like masterpieces.
