"21 and Over" could celebrate that miraculous moment when the final barrier to adulthood falls by the wayside, as the act of legally buying alcohol instantly goes from forbidden act to routine. However, the movie just uses the moment as a springboard to a cynical college-age "Hangover" redo with far fewer developed characters and even less inventive adventures. This is the directorial debut of Jon Lucas and Scott Moore, who wrote "The Hangover (2009)." "21 & Over" pretends to take chances even as it retraces the same sequences we've already seen in movies like--well--"The Hangover." It's hard to completely hate "21 & Over," but you cannot really laugh at it either. The most you can do is just pity it for not being as outrageous as it thinks it is.

The Hangover has been getting progressively worse so what do you expect when the same writers turn their skills to a story about 21 year old college kids having a crazy naked drunken night before the med school interview of one of them.This movie is so terribly written it's not even funny in it's vulgarity. It makes 'American Pie' seem classy. The jokes are so flat and far between.It's so sad that Skylar Astin of Pitch Perfect has to do this nonsense. For Justin Chon from Twilight this is a comedown. I know often actors have to take the roles they can get but this is so terrible.It's a movie that should not have been made. Can't understand how it didn't bomb at the box office.

This movie has gotten pretty beaten up but I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a college drinking stupidity movie! Fun watch!
