Crinkleberg - The Hottest Mystery of 2018

       Crinkleberg is a hot new mystery/thriller film, with the perfect amount of comic relief. The entire concept of the movie revolves around the weaponization of water bottles. The main protagonist, Jeffrey Jéffrey Crinkleberg, had the most normal of lives, until one fateful day, when a crime so unbearable was committed on his behalf in the middle of his classroom. His teacher exposed him, and this crime skyrocketed Crinkleberg to the top of the 'Most Wanted' list, and soon everyone he knew viewed him differently. Crinkleberg insists he did nothing, but the truth is shrouded behind lies and false accusations. With only his mother and two new friends by his side, Crinkleberg must find the truth, or at least something to tell the angry people of Yoinksville, Oklahoma. When it comes down to it, Crinkleberg has a knack for detective work, and began his quest immediately, starting at his high school. As a high school student, world renowned screenplay author, Terry Rippon, knows the high school scene very well. He perfectly portrays subtle aspects in both directions, whether it's bullying or reaching out to a student in need. The story moves chronologically, and is completely continuous, minus the much needed excerpts of comic relief. The ending to this movie involves the plot twist of the century. No matter the age or gender, this twist will bring you tears. Not even the unexpected can be expected, even if you are expecting the unexpected.
       To add to the high school feel of the film, the cast list is loaded with not only actual high school students, but the suggestions of high school students as well. This tactic will strengthen the high school crime feel due to the accuracy of the cast list. The cast list is as follows:

Ethan Pappa as Crinkleberg
Mrs. Roy as Mrs. Crinkleberg
Mr. Rivers as himself
Justin Rhodes as Edwalt
Jennifer Lawrence as Kathy
Quinn Van Es as Hostage Negotiator
Andrew Neumann as Stranger

       High school students, and students in general, will relate to this film the best, because they are currently living in the school setting. Anyone in need of some inspiration, whether they have been blamed for something before, or just need a little bit of hope, will deeply enjoy this film. The story told through this film fully encapsulates the definition of the word perseverance, and the need for friends in trying times. Any fans of mystery, drama, or even just a good plot twist, will love this movie.
