Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

I've given this 8 out of 10, but it qualifies as an 8.5 in reality.American Pie are funny but really only get a good 7.I have to agree with some of the previous comments - this film is grossly underrated by the critics. But it should always be remembered that no one saw the original Die Hard, or Shawshank Redemption at the cinema, everyone saw those classics on video and I reckon that this will be that kind of film.Watch it right to the end (and I mean all the way to the end of the credits). You'll walk away saying "I'm glad I watched that". (well, apart from THAT out-take!)

Happened to have this on CC as I was fixing my bike. Had heard of it, and expected it to be the stereotypical teen exploitation film, filled with cardboard cutout characters representing an adult idea of what a young adult might want.Instead, it's a smart film with characters that represent actual humans, and with certain subtleties that you would never expect.You won't mistake it for Fellini, and there's plenty of the usual red-meat clichés of the genre, but it's closer to the mark than most, and clearly someone--writer, director?--had more in mind than just a cheap money making knockoff, although undoubtedly there were some participants who must have had that in mind too.The casting is smart. The Amish subplot is unexpected and works a few unexpected things. And the pick-up artist character (Lance?) is interestingly well drawn, written and acted with some unexpected depth. The lack of gratitude angle played out in the Seth Green subplot is one that I don't think has been done before in a film like this, and is actually a bit daring for a genre that mostly deals with tropes and flattery.

I really love this movie. It was well writin and well casted and is not only really funny but actually has some substance. I understand that the teen romance thing has been played out a thousand different ways but I think that it was done really well in this movie. I would highly recommend watching the unrated version of this movie if you are like me and really enjoy stupid random things happening and don't mind a lot of nudity.One of the main complaints i have heard about this movie is that its story is not original but I completely disagree. Like i mentioned before the premise has been used before but i think this movie does it in its own unique way. Overall this movie is a really entertaining movie thats fun to watch with your friends over and over again.p.s. this is my 1st review so sorry if its sloppy or not to well writin.

"Sex Drive" is a coming-of-age-self-discovery film which is also a comedy. Ian, the main character, a young man of 18, feels the urge to lose his virginity, but not at home - this hasn't worked. He's never hooked up with a girl, despite his unrequited love for Felicia.Felicia's true feelings are masked: does she feel love for Lance, or does she secretly love Ian? The third major character, Lance, while seemingly content with himself and attractive to women, (why? I have no idea - he does nothing for me...) also has to come of age. He needs to find steady commitment, and not just jump from girl to girl. These three need to travel in order to fulfill themselves. The fourth major character is Rex. Too old to be living at home and going on motocrosses with his baby brother, he takes out his unspoken frustrations on his younger brother, Ian, challenging his sexuality by teasing him and calling him names. There are several catalysts in this story. For Ian, his is the girl he's been writing to on the internet, a certain "Miss Tasty". When he reaches his destination, he discovers that she's not genuine but menacing. He also gives up some of his predictability when he throws his shoes onto the "shoe tree." Felicia cannot reveal her true feelings until she is trapped in Ian's situation and has to be rescued by him. She will later help him "visit Grandma."Lance meets Mary, a girl different from the bimbos he's been associating with (excluding Felicia: she's no bimbo and she's off limits). Mary is Lance's catalyst. Another catalyst is Ezekiel, the Amish auto mechanic posing as a farmer, strictly local and unsophisticated, untraveled and inexperienced dairyman. He provides relief for Ian's mechanical troubles and is a calming influence. Rex discovers that his brother is more daring than he suspected. He discovers his car missing, and goes after Ian and The Judge with a vengeance, after having a destructive temper tantrum. Another catalyst is the redneck boyfriend of Brandy (a girl of indeterminate virtue who works at a truck stop and accepts random acts of kindness and sex).Many of the characters come together at a Big Boy parking lot in Knoxville, Tennessee. Ian becomes a hero,the redneck shows his friendly side, and Lance gets a deserved punch in the jaw, and Rex also gets his comeuppance by Miss Tasty's boyfriend and insight into Ian's bravery and chivalry. Rex doesn't show all of his true colors and secret until Thanksgiving, after which time Ian and Felicia "visit Grandma". Despite his "true confession," Rex has not forgotten his teasing nature, and seems to have developed a talent for lighting and throwing firecrackers at an inopportune time. Well acted by all the cast, and a genuinely funny script. Despite all the comparisons to other movies of the genre, it stands on its own and does not take itself at all seriously. It would be a mistake for anyone to do that. The two most comedic actors are Seth Green and James Marsden. Marsden is barely recognizable in bleached hair and a mustache and goatee. Anyone who tries to typecast him would be foolish; he will try anything and has no fear of making himself look and act ridiculous, doing it brilliantly. Green almost plays himself, but does it well. The rest of the cast are believable and likable. I cannot ask any more than that from an actor in a comedy: help me believe in you and like you, and use your comedic timing and ability. Then we'll all laugh and enjoy it. This happened in "Sex Drive," which probably scandalized many folks. If I were a young man, I could imagine identifying with all these characters.
