Charlie Bartlett

While technically in a supporting role, Robert Downey Jr. is the clear star of Charlie Bartlett.  It seems like everything he has done in the last few years has turned to gold.  I liked Anton Yelchin as the protagonist, but the plot seemed a bit too reminiscent of other 'fish out of water' type movies. Nothing in the film really stood out as original or creative. The top-notch cast in the film probably drives it, making it exponentially more watchable. Half the cast of Degrassi was in it as well in bit parts. Very cool...I love Degrassi.
