   Our review: Parents say Not yet rated Rate movie. Kids say ( 1 ): With a few unexpected plot twists, writer-director Jeffrey Blitz admirably keeps ROCKET SCIENCE from devolving into Rocky -lite. Sometimes when the odds are stacked so high against a kid like Hal, no amount of hard work will end in victory.
