Feels so much like a holdover thriller from the 1990s. Even down to the college-rock song played at the end.

^ so true it reminds me in terms of style like Disturbing Behaviour from 1998.
shareVery true! Don't forget though that these "styles" were incredibly lucrative and the entire teen genre sort of held over until about 2007 when Superbad trailblazed the Apatow influence for younger audiences. I'd say She's The Man ended the 90s.
shareIt takes a couple of years after each decade ends to really noticeably see the style and tone shift and change. Watch Beverly Hills, 90210 - it was the show that defined the 90s, running from 1990-2000, but if you didn't know that, you would swear the first two seasons were the 80s. Friends is the same way - it ended in 2004, but up through 2002, it has a 90s vibe. Give it another year or two and movies that came out in 2012 will start seeming a bit more dated than they actually are.
shareYeah.
