He needs to get a girlfriend to lose his virginity to, preferably his schoolmate Jordana, while at the same time trying to resurrect his parent's marriage, that appears to be in shambles. His mother's former 'friend' Graham (Paddy Considine with one of the worst mullets in recent history) moved in next door.
Oliver himself moves through life in insecurity and wide-eyed desperation. He gets Jordana, but having a girlfriend brings a lot of complications with it, for one her family including a mother sick with cancer and a dead dog. His covert operations to keep his parent's marriage intact don't seem to do a lot of good either. Eventually, however, some things sort themselves out.
It's weird and dorky and very funny. I love this!
Great soundtrack, too!
8/10
