Edgy high school comedy from Glee star has some iffy stuff

There isn't much to say about Struck by Lightning, except that it's one of those interchangeable teen movies that lands in theaters in early January, the morgue for films nobody knows what to do with.

Colfer is still very young, but he needs to learn that "snide" is not a point of view.

This is a highly confused film that doesn't seem to know exactly what it wants to be.

If only "Struck by Lightning" had a sharper, stronger perspective, it might have made more of its conceit.
July 04, 2013
Likeable, frequently funny comedy enlivened by snappy dialogue and strong performances from a superb comic cast, though the overall plot is weak and the opening conceit referenced in the title fails to convey any dramatic or emotional weight.

In his screenwriting debut, Glee's gifted Chris Colfer, 22, proves he can lace a line with sass and soul.

There are some nice spins on old high school clichés and enough off-center characters and good, occasionally great, dialogue that should make this one of the year's early hits in the art house market.

Except for Ms. Janney's monstrous mother and an Alzheimer's-afflicted grandmother (Polly Bergen), "Struck by Lightning" gives its characters no dimension.

The main character is more off-putting than endearing.
June 27, 2014
A sincere rather than charming or laugh-out-loud movie-and tonally, one of the latter would have made it work much better. It's also too serious-one wants more outrageousness-because that's what the fun little premise promises but doesn't quite deliver.

Ultimately, it all portends a much brighter future for Colfer than for Carson.
