Review by Pete Roche
Precocious third-grader Judy Moody (Jordana Beatty) is determined to have the best summer ever. Too bad she’s too preoccupied tabulating “Thrill Points” to actually have a good time.
Precocious third-grader Judy Moody (Jordana Beatty) is determined to have the best summer ever. Too bad she’s too preoccupied tabulating “Thrill Points” to actually have a good time.
Judy’s banjo-plucking teacher, Mr. Todd (Jaleel White), challenges the garishly-attired girl and her 3T classmates to find him about town over summer. It’s just one of many goals Judy includes on her Thrill Chart, which she explains to friends in her secret club. But her buddies won’t even be around to share the summer; Rocky is going to circus camp and Amy’s off to Borneo to research lost tribes with her journalist mother. Judy’s parents are leaving, too—California-bound to nurse a sick relative—leaving Judy home with her Bigfoot-obsessed little brother, “Stink.”
