Luxurious supporting roles + princess characters + messy plot + female lead skills = the director may want to kill Guan Xiaotong in North America

It’s the old lady’s advice to you. Believe me, instead of spending 2 hours in this movie, it’s better to be in a daze. Playing King of Glory, counting hairs, or picking your nose is more meaningful than watching this shit. I walked out of the theater and thought this movie was made for an idiot. Recalling that the little couple sitting next door just slept the whole scene, it was really the best way to watch this movie. They were definitely worth the price of watching the whole scene more than I did.

Principal Jenkins: You're next, Charles Wallace!
[closes the door]
Principal Jenkins: Veronica Kiley's parents are on their way here. They're worried for their daughter's safety.
Meg: Their daughter is mean!
Principal Jenkins: You hit her in the face!
[sits at his desk and pauses]
Principal Jenkins: You - you we're a top student. Top attitude. But, look at you now. You - you're aggressive, you're hostile, you shut everybody out, and then wonder why they don't like you.
Meg: I don't wonder and I don't care!
Principal Jenkins: Hmm. Well, maybe that's your problem!
Meg: I don't have a problem!
Principal Jenkins: You can't keep using your father's disappearance as an excuse to act out. What do you he think he'd say about all this? Seriously? If he walked through that door today, what would happen?
Meg: The world would make sense again!
Principal Jenkins: Listen, all I'm saying is... it's been four years. Odds are, he's not coming back.
[Meg gets up from her chair and leaves the office]
Principal Jenkins: I did not excuse you, young lady. Meg!
[cut to the Murry house]
Mrs. Murry: I want you to write an apology to Principal Jenkins.
[Meg nods her head in fear]
Mrs. Murry: And one to Veronica.
Meg: Mom! She called Charles Wallace crazy!
Mrs. Murry: That's no excuse!
[walks away]
Meg: Well, Dad always told me to stand up for what I believe in!
Mrs. Murry: Don't use Dad like that. It's not fair!
Meg: He's not coming back! Is he?
Mrs. Murry: Don't give up hope, Meg-lin!

Calvin: You know, you have great hair!
Meg: What? No, I don't. Please don't say that.
Calvin: Okay!
[pause]
Calvin: I had a great time. Your mom is insanely nice.
[Veronica looks out her window]
Calvin: Your house is warm. Smells good and is full of... I don't know what. It's amazing!
Meg: It's far from amazing. My mom's upstairs in her room preparing for yet another parent-teacher conference for her delinquent daughter.
Meg: [sees Veronica staring at Meg and Calvin out her window and sighs] Oh now, not now. Come here!
[Veronica laughs and Calvin waves at her]
Calvin: Veronica is your neighbor?
Meg: Yes! Come here. Please!
Calvin: So, you're embarrassed to be seen with me?
Meg: Yeah right. Other way around. She's going to tell everybody that you were with me and I'm just trying to protect your reputation. So, can come you here?
Calvin: She already saw us. Besides, there's nothing to be embarrassed about!
[Veronica closes her window]
Meg: You say that now, but... you don't know what it's like having your every move mocked and ridiculed.
Calvin: Well, you'd be surprised!
Meg: Come on, Calvin. Everybody likes you. Even the teachers. You do everything perfectly.
Calvin: [smirks] Tell that to my dad!
Meg: At least, you have your dad!
Calvin: Right, sorry that - you must really miss him?
Meg: More than anything in the universe!
