First saw this in college about 10 years ago and thought it was one of the funniest movies I had ever seen. Me and my roommates watched it as much or more than Dazed and Confused! I would have given it a 9 or 10 back then. I was moving into a new apartment and found my old DVD and decided to watch it again.
It does stand up to the test of time, probably because of the quick funny dialog and some very unique scenes. Although i swear "Friends with Benefits" stole an entire scene (bedroom oral scene under the covers).
My older self wishes it changed a little bit of the script and maybe explained some of the characters a little better, but that's not a big deal. The main thing that could be updated is the I the story between the main character Sachem and his girlfriend Julie (great portrayal by the actress btw). This needs some more time devoted to explain what's going on and the reason. Sachem says a lot of funny stuff at her expense, and when I was 19 I thought it was hysterical, but now that I'm older and married it seems unnecessary at times. I think the crazy stories could have been given to another character and the relationship between those two could have been given more time. Again, don't let this keep you from watching it, especially if you're under 30 and definitely if you're under 25.
