FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
chetanchopra012 This one is so much like your normal chic lit romcom type in the beginning but picks up as we approach the half way mark. Emile Hirsch could get an 'A' for his acting. He also has a couple of friends and the three of them insist on calling themselves as 'tripod' and rightly so, as this film is held up partly because of the 'one-for-all, all-for-one' sort of friendship they exhibit. This film also tacitly touches upon the concept of true love and standing up for it when it's called for. Elisha Cuthbert exhibits a different level of grace altogether in this movie and was the sole motivator for me to watch this movie in the first place. And last but not least, this movie gives guys the message to fight for their girl when it's due and also gives them hope that anything can be achieved when she's by their side.
Moviemanic22 Please do not confuse this movie for the life of porn star Stacy Valentine feature from the same year. This is mainstream comedy movie that stars Emilie Hirsh and Elisha Cuthbert. The film is about a high school student who discovers that a porn star has moved in next door to him. They become friends which leads to a serious relationship. However it is only a matter of time until her porn film producer friend bumps in to her again and attempts to come between the two. The film follows the same route as many previous love stories. Unfortunately the film doesn't shed much light on the porn industry and is neither a biography of any sort. There are many comic moments that display the humour side of the business. Towards the the second half the film ventures in to 'risky Business 1983' terrority. As a matter of fact the film almost seems like a duplicate of the 80s movie. The only difference seems that Rebecca De Mornay was a prostitute.Good light hearted fun and Timothy Olyphant is the heart of the movie. He manages to be funny in a serious way. And Cuthbert is attractive.
pjbhaumik There was a lot of hype for this movie, and frankly the hype setup viewers for this movie's situational irony. The characters were attractive ranging from the usual suburban high school cliques to adult film producers and starlets. Eroticism and high school graduation, as a pair, always attracted attention, and this movie capitalized on this taboo reality. Having these polarized yet ancillary characters made most of this movie's humor based on the novelty of the friendships. This movie definitely illustrated the quiet kinkiness lurking in high school academics while addressing issues of moral sexual behavior. American Pie and She's All That each made boundaries within which this movie operated.
begob Goody goody student perverts sex into profit.The deep depravity of the Reaganite fairytale. This looks like an update of Ferris Bueller, but fails at every level - zero laughs, zero innocence. And the story telling is poor.At about halfway I checked to see how much time was left - always a bad sign - and there were still 50 mins to go. Ouch.High production value and good acting, but so many jokes missed, so much irony ignored. The romance didn't matter to the story at all, so there you have it: people are just c^nts and pr*cks that come at a price - lovely.Plus 1 for the soundtrack, but we really need to reject this sh*t.
