Movies

After seeing a trailer that seemed to have promise I was rather surprised at how much this film lacked any laughs. This fault lies with the directing and editing. The actors seemed to give performances up to that of any other teen comedy, but the timing of the whole movie was off.....and in comedy, timing is everything! The fact that the story has little character set-up and uses every cliché stolen from numerous comedies before it does not help the ill paced scenes.I managed to leave the theater without requesting my money back, but you know when people in the audience are having full conversations during a film, it is hardly holding anyone's attention.Pass at the B.O. and only rent it on DVD if you have an unlimited plan and are running out of things to see.

Despite all the negative reviews, I had the intentions of seeing this movie. This movie is kind of special to me because I saw this film right before my graduation. Some scenes in this movie made me reminiscent about similar things in my high school life. Also, this is a pretty funny movie especially the valedictorian speech.This movie is about some ugly dude who confesses his love to the hottest girl of the graduating class. She and her friends end up giving him and his best friend the best night of their lives.The acting is probably better than I thought. I thought the guy is too nerdy to get the head cheerleader. But, Hayden looks very beautiful in this movie.Overall, this is a great movie to watch. I had fun watching this film. I don't know about anyone else. I rate this film 9/10.

The opening speech, which is painfully hilarious, sets the tone for this movie.I went into this movie knowing the plot and knew I couldn't expect too much.I laughed constantly throughout the movie, if i wasn't, i was smiling. There's lots of original comedy in this movie even if it is about a nerdy highschool boy trying to get the hottest cheerleader. For what this movie is and what it tries to be, its got 10/10, lets face it, it's not trying to be Dead Poet's Society.I would recommend this to people I know, saying its SO much better than all the reviews out there. I think its classic. 10/10(it couldn't be any better for what it is)
