Good, not as great as it could be.

Rating: 6/10 (11 January 2008)

Three teens, all awkward in their high school ways, try to ensure a wild finish for their senior year by procuring alcohol for a party. A night's worth of adventures ensues.
It was hard for me to put a star value on this movie. As much as I liked it, I saw some flaws that needed to be addressed to propel this movie to an 8, or maybe a 9. First, there are pacing issues. Some of the scenes suffer because it's clear to the audience what will happen, and the scene takes too long to achieve the goal. This bit of trimming could make the movie feel a little more tightly bound. The second problem is an odd one. I'm not opposed to cursing at all, but the incredible quantity of it hurts the movie in a specific way - it hurts the sense of realism.
Aside from these flaws, I can honestly say that this clearly beats Knocked Up, and is roughly as funny as 40-year-old Virgin, though with some of these drawbacks that lower my rating.
