A hilarious movie based on every lad's dream

Rating: 10/10 (5 February 2005)

When I first watched this movie I was apprehensive about whether the storyline could work and produce an entertaining film. My doubts were soon put to rest by the brilliant Elisha Cuthbert and the obvious chemistry between her and Emile Hirsch.
The film had me entertained throughout and I went through a roller-coaster of emotions from laughter to sympathy as I could relate to Matthew's feelings of isolation from the experience of my school years. There are plenty of twists in the plot along the way, and there are excellent supporting performances from Timothy Olyphant, James Remar, Chris Marquette and Paul Dano.
The movie can get slightly unbelievable at times, but there are plenty of laugh out loud moments to keep you riveted. This is a highly entertaining film and I can thoroughly recommend it...
