PLOT SYNOPSIS
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Rafe Khatchadorian (GRIFFIN GLUCK) has an epic imagination and a slight problem with authority, and these things collide when he transfers to a middle school where students are expected to follow the rules. This doesn’t sit well with Rafe. With help from his new friend Leo (THOMAS BARBUSCA), the mischievous lad concocts schemes to drive his tyrannical principal (ANDY DALY) crazy while also using his charm and wits to impress a girl (ISABELA MONER) and battle the bullies.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

VIDEO \u2013 4.0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Lionsgate releases Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life<\/em><\/strong> is presented in its original 2.39 widescreen aspect ratio and a 1080p high-definition transfer. As one would imagine, being a comedy, colors are bright throughout and skin tones appear natural looking while detail is relatively sharp and nicely defined.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\n

AUDIO \u2013 4.25\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

The movie comes with a standard DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track which sounds good especially whenever the top 100 songs pipe in (like \u201cCake by the Ocean\u201d), it envelopes the entire room quite nicely. Besides that, dialogue levels did sound crisp and clean but it\u2019s a limited track given, like the vide, it\u2019s a comedy.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Overall, Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life<\/em><\/strong> is a safe and harmless film mainly for families however for anyone older, the jokes don\u2019t quite land though I\u2019d be lying if I didn\u2019t say it was mildly entertaining.
