Movie Review

Grade: C+ I'm a guy. A straight guy. Growing up, I liked to read "The Hardy Boys," and not just the newer, techno-friendly ones. I read every single old "Hardy Boys" ever written, and then some.

This movie ruined all of the Nancy Drew books I have read. She is way too young and has the suspence of a rotten tomato.
