The acting..... and Chloe

Well indeed this is not a movie for the books but once again that Zack dude surprises me with his fine comedic timing and Seth delivers in anything he does, partly I think because he plays himself.... anyway, the one star that should outshine the rest was the brilliant Chloë Grace Moretz... and yet almost every scene and delivery she has comes off as shallow and unbelievable and I think unconnected with the rest of this world her character lives in. I would say she is an awful actor had I not seen her in other stuff perform very well.

You with me?

I agree

Zac Efron has grown on me. His comedic delivery is pretty right-on. I also liked him in Dirty Grandpa (2016).

Seth's the man. Period.

Chloë Grace Moretz is still young and learning. I feel she's still hit and miss in her roles. Maybe she's still trying to find her niche. I think she's perfect as Hit Girl in Kick-Ass (2010). She was good in Carrie (2013) and The Equalizer (2014). But not so good in Hick (2011).

I thought she was really bad in Carrie, Let Me In, If I Stay, practically everything other than kickass movies.

She's brilliant in Let Me In, understated but well acted. She should have kicked on by now though, needs a great role to elevate her.
