A movie about high schoolers cheering for their baseball team on the first round of the national high school tournament where nothing of the match is actually shown shouldn't be so fun. But "On the Edge of Their Seats" is a total surprise. Centering on five students (and a teacher) it is basically action free and dialogue heavy. But these students' fears, insecurities, hopes are so well developed and so vividly shown on the screen that you will actually want to join them in their conversations. It can be said that what they say is not particularly original, but the way it is expressed, the actors' refreshing delivery and the pace of the story makes for a wonderful time. If you have the chance to watch it, do.
