Lots of good reviews here. However couldnt really recommend. The adult actors let it down, script and direction were stilted or unrealistic. The background music often didnt really work. However it was a worthwhile attempt -and did pretty well for the low budget.

OK premise spoiled by poor acting and script
A Fun Charming Ensemble Comedy
What happens when a group of parents decide to give their teenage children a digital detox? It's a fun concept resulting in lots of laughs while injecting an endearing social commentary. The film does a great job of distinguishing its colorful cast of characters and giving all of them their own unique flavor. Plus, it's not afraid to take some bold stylistic choices that aid the comedy and quirky story-telling.
Good Concept Teen Comedy
I'm not the best audience for a teen comedy, so read the review with this in mind. This film starts with a great idea, very much a concern in many households today, the total attention to electronics to the exclusion of everything else. Parents impose a 30 day moratorium on their 5 teens...no internet, no phones, etc. This could be a nice family film that might make youngsters think about relying more on personal interaction, tho some of the language might need to be adjusted for the younger crowd. Nehemiah Deason did a nice job as Bentley. The dialogue, exposition and scenes could use trimming with instead more visual communication between the actors. Less is more.
