#1 Cheap Charlie Bartlett Reviews
Special Price Today Go To Store!! (Limited Time Offer)
This is one of the most silly, real, simple but powerful and uplifting movies I have ever seen. Almost every type of person I've shown it to (many types of people with completely different tastes in movies) has loved it. Its definitely something to watch if you want to see a new good movie with a great storyline, or if you want to laugh and be uplifted.
I really don't understand why the movie was deemed rated R. I think that part was overrated. There is nothing very obscene in it, just a few real-life situations that are very, very subtle.
Anyway, I highly recommend it!

Charlie Bartlett Overview
The kids at Western Summit High have "issues," and newcomer Charlie Bartlett is coming to their rescue. With a briefcase full of prescription pills and a head full of pop psychology, this rebel with a cause brings hilarious help to the student body and unending grief to their neurotic principal, Mr. Gardner (Robert Downey, Jr.). Suddenly, Charlie is the hottest man on campus and he's even caught the eye of Gardner's sultry daughter. An outrageous send-up of today's Prozac generation, Charlie Bartlett has your prescription for laugh-out-loud insanity!

Charlie Bartlett never really grabbed my attention from the get go. Nothing even remotely interesting or humorous about the storyline ever really came. A teenage boy pretends to be a counselor of some sorts by distributing drugs in a school bathroom. In addition to that, other classmates would frequently visit him and ask for guidance.
Charlie Bartlett started off as someone everyone at his school disliked, but eventually he found an ability to win over most of his school mates. The transition from someone who wasn't liked at all to someone EVERYONE liked never really clicked or made sense from a storyline point of view, unless I missed something very very obvious. It's hard to miss something obvious about a storyline laid out in such an easy to follow way, so yeah... I don't get it.
I never really found anything particularly interesting about this storyline, nor any of the characters (such as Charlie Bartlett himself, his mother, or the guy who portrayed the bully in the beginning). I just don't get the appeal. What *is* the appeal? Was I supposed to be laughing, treating it as a drama, WHAT exactly? It left me completely cold.
