- Synopsis:
- Sutter Keely (Miles Teller) lives in the now. It's a good place for him. A high school senior, charming and self-possessed, he's the life of the party, loves his job at a men's clothing store, and has no plans for the future. A budding alcoholic, he's never far from his supersized, whiskey-fortified thirst-master cup. But after being dumped by his girlfriend, Sutter gets drunk and wakes up on a lawn with Aimee Finecky (Shailene Woodley) hovering over him. She's different: the "nice girl" who reads science fiction and doesn't have a boyfriend. While Aimee has dreams of a future, Sutter lives in the impressive delusion of a spectacular now, yet somehow, they're drawn together.

DVD bin-fodder - The Spectacular Now review by Alphaville
This insufferable Sundance-winning high school talkfest stars the supremely irritating Miles Teller. Described as ‘an effortless charmer’, he’ll have you pressing the off button in less than two minutes. If you don’t believe that, check him out on the trailer.
