Maybe I don't interpret your intentions correctly. Sorry, if that is so.

I was able to find pleasure in those many situations where Johnny is treated with irony, in observing his tiredess and boredom and in his daughter's affection. I didn't get any sense apart from what is quite obvious.
Other films with teen celebs that I can remember are Elle's Phoebe in Wonderland, Little miss sunshine and My sister's keeper with Abigail Breslin, Coraline that features Dakota's voice, Off the map, Ghost world. I think that some of them are just as good as Somewhere.
