Review of Standing Up

Standing Up (II) (2013)
3/10
Did a child write this story?
16 October 2013
Warning: Spoilers
This movie may be OK for children as they don't have sense enough to realize how ridiculous most of this movie is. These two kids would have had to be amazingly stupid to make the decisions they made and anyone watching this without realizing this the whole time is living in fantasy land.

So this girl calls her mom after being victimized with another boy in a crime. She doesn't tell her mother she was the victim of a crime. She merely whines like a kid who doesn't want to be at camp so that we can move the movie along rather than ending it there with the cops rescuing them and arresting the criminals at the camp.

Her mom gets a call from the camp that her daughter is missing, she goes to the camp and finds out part of the story (they leave out the naked part) and tells the camp a crime has been committed. For the rest of the movie she does nothing about this crime. She is a lawyer and she knows the camp has been privy to this type of criminal activity for years, (which makes the camp criminally negligent) yet she doesn't do anything about it.

This kid runs around the whole movie scared her mom's gonna beat her because she was the victim of a crime. Who teaches that to their kids? And who doesn't get angry when watching the kid do it?

These two kids never once think to call the cops to get rescued, instead they start committing a series of unnecessary crimes to further the idiotic plot of this movie.

Who in their right mind can sit through 90 minutes of incongruity without yelling at these two idiots to tell someone what happened to them?
