A hormone driven movie that's better and different, and it's carried by the cute and sexy Elisha Cuthbert.

Rating: 7/10 (13 May 2007)

"The Girl Next Door" is well done and has all the elements of your typical hormone teen flick, yet it's a little different than most, by having characters discover their true feelings and finding love in the most unexpected way. Emile Hirsch stars as Matthew Kidman a high school senior who's a brain and uptight never having any fun, until one day when he discovers his new next door neighbor(Elisha Cuthbert) who just happens to be hot so he tries to give her a try! The opening scene when Matthew sees her thru the open window next door is just great, oh that backside of Elisha! Well upon meeting and finding her name as Danielle they begin to talk, hang out and become friends, only Matthew soon discovers that Danielle is an ex porn star now his world and culture starts to spin out of control! True this film is your typical hormone driven sex flick with plenty of teen pranks, and many sexy scenes and quotes, yet the development of a loving and caring relationship forms between the two central characters. Many of the movies things are crazy but yet they help bring both Matthew and Danielle to love like the Las Vegas porn convention and the prom night sex education video! I must say the performance of Elisha Cuthbert is fabulous she's so cute and sexy and many scenes of her in this film were so hot! Especially the window and pool scenes, and the hotel clothing take off when she sported that sexy red bra and panties! Elisha really carried this film she's really a beautiful and sexy star. Finally "The Girl Next Door" shows and teaches a viewer that love can be found for anyone no matter how different the backgrounds and that success and happiness can be obtained in the craziest ways.
