One of the Worst.

Rating: Null/10 (5 April 2002)

First, as an avid Kevin Smith fan, and after reading some of the reviews on this tasteless, and relentlessly retarded movie; let me just say to those who compared this movie to the likes of "Clerks" are right and wrong. At least "Clerks" had a good point to it, and at least the grossest of the gross was off screen. And lets face it, theres no way in hell this movie can compare in terms of the script and the writing capabilities of Kevin Smith.
The unfortunate thing about this movie is that it's true: High school students today are shallow, vacuous, and pretentious and only care about their own social lives. They may seem to care about issues and events that really do effect lives, but it's all a cover to appear much more intelligent than they really are.
Even more unfortunate is the movie itself. I hate teen exploition movies. All it does is take the fears and thoughts of teens on dating, and turn into unfunny mindless jokes for cash and cheap laughs. Of course, the people who buy into these kinds of movies laugh at jokes like "Pen 15". I'll leave it up to you what your going to rent, but at all costs avoid this drek.
