BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

mikefilmstudent Booboo Stewart looks like a white kid in this movie rather than looking like an Asian. This is a classic Hollywood using a white person in Asian character.The overall story is good. Booboo has a good potential to be a big star. I like that the producers use multiple teenager stars to put into this project. However, I hate to see the main character pretending to be Asian when he is clearly a white kid by the facial structure and skin complex.

kramnibur This is such a well told story....the plot is complicated, yet it is simply told. I am not ashamed to say that the tears started soon after the movie begun. Of course they remained until the end. All the performances were simple & simply good. Even the smaller roles were played to perfection. I loved this movie.

pc95 Directed by Quentin Lee with heavy handedness, "White Frog" is a complete dud with an intriguing title. Unfortunately the title is where anything interesting ends. The dialog has no subtlety, and the direction is a failure. Scenes are over or under acted with regularity, and the dichotomy of greed and giving is sickeningly simplified and black-and- white. The preaching screams out in scene-after-scene - community service, money, friends, parents. In one scene we are supposed to believe a professional psychologist would actually floss during a session. The complete dysfunction, spectacle and melodrama is putrid, especially from the parents. Who sponsors this Crud? Booboo Stewart's acting was cringe-worthy. Like watching a bad high school film project. 3/10 If you're interested in a better movie about Asberger, check out "Adam". Much better acted and directed.

jm10701 Most of the other online reviews of White Frog seem to have been written by teenagers who have seen more TV than movies, so I'll try to give an adult perspective, in case any other adults are thinking about renting or buying this movie.First of all, except for two of the adults, I had never before seen or heard of any of the actors in this movie. So a statement like "Booboo Stewart gives, by far, his best performance to date" just leaves me puzzled. A person named Booboo has made movies before? Wow.Others who rattle off other movies or TV shows these cast members have appeared in together, or refer to a "handsome teen idol cast" also leave me (and probably many other adults) clueless.Second, I was not ever for even one second moved to tears while watching this movie. Not anywhere close. It is EXTREMELY sappy and manipulative - and painfully predictable. If you are eager to be swept up in shallow emotionalism - or are an adolescent who can't help it - then you may love this movie. It just made me want to pull my hair out.Finally, if this really is Booboo's "best performance to date", he might want to consider a different career while he's still young enough to change easily. Only very young people who have seen very little of life and the world could be impressed by his performance in this movie. He looked down and mumbled all through the movie... and THAT is supposed to be a great performance? Only in an adolescent TV universe could that be true.So I'd advise adults to look elsewhere and leave this movie to the kids, with their innocent enthusiasms and the rampant emotions that seethe just under the surface of their lives. It may be better than the TV they're used to, but as a movie it's not worth watching.
