A coming of age sex farce for the 90's

Rating: 9/10 (28 July 1999)

I wasn't sure I wanted to see this movie -- but after I went I was glad I did.
This is a truly funny movie.
Four High School senior boys make a pact to lose their virginity by prom night.
The big question is will they, and eventually, do they really want to?
While you could never say they are richly textured, fully dimensional characters they are very entertaining.
A real standout performance is by Alyson Hannigan as Michelle the geeky band chick -- her "In band camp..." diatribes were hilarious.
No one was too pretty to be believable -- Seann William Scott as Stifler was the token pretty boy but he ends up as the one you may actually feel sorry for. His good looks don't get him anywhere.
The way the Internet is used almost as another character really brings this film into the 90's.
The humour is broad, unsubtle and always over the top but funny nonetheless.
