Goofs:

Continuity: After Kylie discovers that Taylor, Lyndi, and Danny are not on the bus, they are, in a later scene, shown walking toward the front of the bus, with all their luggage, and they are presumably getting off. When the story later goes back to Kylie and the other three, the bus is driving up to a bus stop and they get off the bus. They should have already been off the bus, considering they would not be standing while the bus was still moving, and there was no-one else on the bus in the previous scene.

Quotes:

Charley Simms: Hey, I'm Charley.
Taylor Hunter: Taylor.
Charley Simms: You're either a mirage or lost cause I've never seen anyone my age around here.
Taylor Hunter: I'm real.
Charley Simms: How did you get up here? Sorry, none of my business.
Taylor Hunter: All I wanted was to go to the Olympics. Is that so much to ask. I mean I worked my butt off to get those tickets. I should have gone by myself, but no I had to make it a group trip with my sister and friends. And my luck I got stuck with a group that can do absolutely nothing right...

Soundtrack:

Say What You Mean

Their worst one ever

I hate this movie so much. It's their worst one. The plot is pointless. It takes them forever to get there and when they do get to Salt Lake City, it's not a euphoric feeling that they finally reach their destination. My life as a teenager sucks so maybe why I have such animosity for this movie cuz their parents are allowing them to drive out of the state with other stupid teens. And don't forget that stupid girl in the movie. An absolute airhead. My goodness do I hate this movie. I don't recommend this movie.
