Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Fantastic!
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Alex is on his way to Harvard but needs a summer internship to qualify for a scholarship. When a job in D.C. falls through, he turns to his glib cousin, Roger, whom he thinks is an aquatic engineer. Roger is, in truth, a Beverly Hills pool boy who offers Alex a job and promises to invent an internship to fool Harvard. When a pool customer with a mansion goes on holiday for six weeks, Roger gets the idea to run a brothel and enlists Alex to keep the books. As the scholarship interview approaches, what could go wrong?Been done before and I supposed the $15 budget was spent on Meth because it doesn't show in the film quality. Maybe it went to Tarzan. The film is really dumb. The part that is especially annoying is it takes this "insider" approach where the actors give a nod and a wink to the audience that they are in a movie. It doesn't work. It brings the film down to a Troma level and that's a micro budget.15 minutes into this movie I actually thought close to 90 minutes elapsed! That's how bad it is.My recommendation is don't bother
This movie had me laughing on the edge of my seat the whole time. Definitely making me second guess my college choices and career path :) On top of the witty humor, the beautiful women make it easy to watch as well. Loved the appearance of Tom Arnold!! Can't wait to see what the cast is up to next! Napoleon Dynamite and MTVs Awkward? I will be watching for sure! With a peeing statue, men dressed in animal costumes, a little girl eating brownies and a crazy adventure this movie is a must see! Brett Davern and Matthew Lillard are a hilarious dynamic duo that captivate the screen and will make you laugh to no end! A movie for the whole family...well maybe not! ;)
I thought the film was hilarious. There are points where the humor seems to be aimed at the teenage boy crowd with lots of bare breasts and occasional rude jokes, but over all a smart film with witty dialog. Much like "Risky Business" the plot seems to be implausible, but no more so. At no point did I feel like a situation was thrown in just to get a laugh, which was so typical of "American Pie."Matthew Lillard brings cleaver humor, while Tom Arnold shows his wild side, something we've not seen since "True Lies." Rachelle Leferve brought class to the film to counter the busty Playboy bunnies romping about. Well worth seeing!
This movie is good entertainment, but it doesn't really bring about many laughs.I was expecting something maybe in the likes of the American Pie movies or such, given the title of the this particular movie and the fact that it was labeled as a comedy.The story was adequate, but the acting was good. For me, this movie failed to make me laugh, though it was basically funny throughout the movie, just not to the point where you laugh. It drew forth a couple of smiles, that was about it.Despite the failure to make me laugh, I still found the movie to be good entertainment. I think this movie is perhaps one such movie that is best watched while nurturing a hang-over.
