A good set of acting on the part of Riley Smith. He shows good potential. There were a few small things that detracted from his overall acting in the movie. He tended to overact the sensitive parts, looking almost to downcast. Also in some scenes he sounds more like a surfer than anything else.
Though all in all our humble opinion is that the good far outweighs the bad. One of the things we like is that Riley has a very charismatic screen personality, he pulls you into the movie. Also we absolutely love his expressions, eyes, and tone of voice specially when he acts kinda shy.
As the movie progressed he seemed to get better and better. Overall we thought his acting was well above average.
Least Favorite Part: Where he was eating dinner and feeling sorry for himself.
Why: Overacting. Facial expression seemed unrealistic. Also the rhythm of the scene had to many quick changes, seemed to bounce from one feeling to another.
Bon's Most Favorite Part: Where he comes up to Andy wanting to know what Farren said.
Why: Was very charismatic his eyes seemed to say as much as his voice. He seemed more relaxed in his part. And the head swing was perfect!!!
Am's Most Favorite Part: Scenes by the pool (end of movie)
Why: As the movie went on his acting got better and better with this being the best. His expressions & tone seemed perfect for the mood of the scene. He made himself seem uncertain and hopeful about the situation amd by the end had worked his character up to being relaxed and confident. Back To Top

Well lets see.....Overall I found the movie and acting unbalanced and not well written. Though Riley did fairly well for what the script provided. In scenes where he calmed down and wasnt so stiff he really good. We thought he and the actor who played Billy worked good together. But! besides everything above if your just watching this movie to see Riley.....well he looked pretty well HOT.
Least Favorite Part: First 15 minutes of the movie.
Why: He was stiff, over acting and not convincing. Also he and the actress who play Mrs B just didnt seem to work well together.
Bon's Most Favorite Part: Bathtub Scene ::Evil Twinkle::.
Why: Well one he hardly had anything on, and he seemed more relaxed & into his role than he did in the rest of the movie.
Am's Most Favorite Part: Where he was spying on Mrs B & Carmicheal to when he escapes
Why: Like in other movies he seems more & more relaxed as the movie goes on. In these scenes where the script was more flowing he did really good. He actually seemed a little scared and once again I love it when he gets those facial expressions going..lol Back To Top

Well well well, he seemed to handle this role quite nicely and he seemed relaxed (thankgoodness). As usual in my opion he didnt really pull off the sentimental scenes, but hey gotta try anyhow. There were alot of parts were he was almost perfect. He and Courtney Peldon seemed to have a good working chemistry. And he looked soooo adorable with the baby bears.
Least Favorite Part: Where he is crying about his father.
Why: Apsens in the sunrise? Get Real! To put it simply he just didnt pull it off...sounds harsh but it wasnt real.
Most Favorite Part: When he first meets Terry (Courtney Peldon).
Why: He acted like a real teenager. The best praise I can give this is that it is something you would see in real life. Back To Top

We all know the scary hooked hand thing is totally worn out but! I was surprised. The acting was good, and the ending..well you won't expect it. Riley did a really good job with this role and hes so cute when he screams lol. He also gets to act all manly and macho which we loved ::evil grin:: It was actually kinda scary (I screamed once!). You have got to check this one out.
Least Favorite Part: When he asks his mother not to embarrass him.
Why: When anyone spoke the cadence & tone seemed off besides the fact they were like cardboard.
Most Favorite Part: Where his girlfriend pushes him into the pool.
Why: It was sooo hilarious, and his face..well I think you get my drift. I also liked where he screamed (in the water) when she was strangling him. Very Cool. Back To Top

Riley kicked butt as Chad, literally! He played a big tuff bully who looked exeptionally hott in all scenes ::my heart is a-flutter:: For such a wierd movie Riley played his role quite nicely. I would at least recommend the first part of the movie (the part w/ Riley lol). Also he played the bully part really good, maybe had alot of experience picking on his sister? ::humorous smile:: Back To Top
