Query: the characteristics of this movie - both good and bad are tough to discern, but one knows they are plentiful

It's unclear what this movie lacks, but one has a constant feeling that there is something missing. The storyline of a boy growing up and getting over his fear of the local bully seems almost too elaborate for this film. The actors are decent (Jason Ritter and Jesse Eisenberg) to mediocre (the female leads - Eva Amurri and Gloria Votsis), with no standout performances.It's impossible to say how much Fred Durst (yes, the lead singer of Limp Bizkit) is at fault for the final execution of the film and how much is the screenwriter's fault. Generally, it seems that the storyline, while being cohesive, manges to feel disjointed and some items alluded to throughout the movie wind up not being crucial at its end (perhaps that's the editor's mistake, less than the director's).
