    This is probably one of my favorite movies of all time! I definitely recommend it to you! It is about a really clever girl who develops her own telekinesis with a plan to outsmart her dimwitted, sleazy parents and brother who only care about money and watching TV. Amazing movie!

        Quite the flick! It's not only funny, but the plot moves at a good pace, and nothing feels bad about it.
