Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Memorable, crazy movie
Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Just another silly teenage sex and drug movie. Enough SNL stars to bring some humor to it. And thank god for leaving Seth Rogan out of it. It was worth a few laughs.
Well there is not much to write about Staten Island Summer. Thirty years ago I might have liked it but now I'm not a teenager anymore, not even close, so this movie is just not for me. It's not the worst thing I ever saw, it's just an average movie about kids wanting to get late for the first time and trying to throw a party to get some actions there. We've seen it all before, and even better. For teenagers this might be a good movie, because they might recognize themselves in it, but for me it doesn't do much. I thought it would be a comedy but honestly if I said I laughed twice during the entire movie I would be lying. Well, like I already said, it's not the worst thing I ever saw, but I certainly won't watch it again.
What do you get when you cross the classics Caddyshack and Superbad with Lorne Michaels producing? An unfunny movie that is not surprisingly disappointing. Has anyone done more to set comedy back 100 years than Michaels? If you are going to rip off characters from comedic genius' Ramis and Apatow then make sure you steal their jokes too. The acting is good but the premise is stale. Kate Walsh, in particular, plays a strong role as Danny's overprotective borderline neurotic mom. Beyond the acting, the writing is average. What could have been funny scenes fall short of hitting the comedic mark. Overall, I give it 3 out of 10 stars and that's being generous. If you have time rent Superbad and Caddyshack. The originals are much better versions than this poor derivative.
Not knowing anything about this film or evan hearing about it when i was asked to review this, as you could guess i was not optermistic......but happy to say i was wrong as this film was absolutely amazing! This film has everything you could ask for great one liners funny moments great story of a bunch of friends and there journey to take the next step. It has the American pie feel because they just want to get laid and throw a party but it stands alone in the way they go about it, all of them are life guards in a swimming club and working for a dumb annoying boss who wants to wreck there summer party plans to which they must come up with ways to beat him. The creepy guy on the train from euro trip is the maintenance worker who in this film is a cross between inspector clouseau and johnny knoxville from jackass is perfect. This has the ability to become a cult classic a great funny heart warming story that is a must watch
