Raunchy without charm, 11 November 2008
4/10
Author: ahliwfy from United States

I wanted to like this movie. It has actors I like both in the adults and the kids (only one I don't is Eva). The problem is it's raunchy like a Kevin Smith or Judd Apatow film without the heart. Plus the comedy is just not done as well.

I think it works a little better when focusing on the kids hanging with other kids. The parts with the adults get a lot of time and feel painfully cliché. Jason Biggs playing a Vice Principal whose school is inspected by his old crush? *sigh*

So, no matter who what got you interested in this movie, I can almost guarantee you'll not be remotely satisfied.
