I was able to see a sneak preview of this movie about three weeks before it was released. I wasn’t too excited to see it because I really expected it to be a teenybopper type movie. I expected crude humor and lots of nudity. And while I was right about some crude humor and there was some nudity, I was wrong about it being another teenybopper type movie. This has to be one the funniest movies I’ve seen in a really long time.
The dialogue cracked me up the whole time. I was not able to stop laughing at times. There are also some scenes that are just so funny that they don’t need dialogue. They just stand on their own. The characters are a little cheesy, but what do you expect from a movie that incorporates porn stars and high school students.
This isn’t a movie for younger kids since there is nudity, swearing and drug references and usage in the movie. I would say that this is for the sixteen to twenty-five year old crowd. I know I am probably going to go see this again because it is hilarious. I would recommend it to anyone that just needs to see a funny movie.
