4%%* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: ''Flying dog.''
5%%* SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome; Many, but Will's mum taking the plate away stands out.
6* JerkassWoobie:
7** Lee is a juvenile delinquent, and initially at least is a cruel bully towards Will. It becomes clear why Lee acts the way he does when we see his dysfunctional home and family life - his father and mother are gone and the only adult influence in Lee's life is a thuggish older brother.
8** Didier is cocky and full of false bravado - but under the superficial "coolness" he's actually a coward and a FalseFriend who abandoned Will during a potentially dangerous situation. Didier acts this way among his English friends (who see him as cool and exotic) to overcompensate for his own insecurity about being seen as a weird outcast among his own French classmates.
9* TearJerker: One such moment comes near the end of the film, [[spoiler:when Didier returns to France. The whole school shows up to wish him goodbye and some of his admirers give him a bouquet of flowers. Then when he gets on the bus, the other French exchange students make fun of him and he drops and ruins his bouquet]]. Not the most Tearjerky, by far, but it still gets you.
