3/4
A not so nude teen comedy that doesnt require full view of boobs or ass to become a fun ride. Brian Hecker writes and directs a teen comedy about what life means to a average high school kid and how the most unsuspected night becomes the best memory of ones self. Bart got a room but he is not the lucky one.
Plot follows nerdy kid Danny(Steven Kaplin). A Jason Biggs look alike. His unsuccessful attempts at securing a prom date becomes a problem despite having his friend offering a date. He denies it because their just friends. As the film goes on, so do his problems. With no answer, he must answer to his dweeb father and quirky mother to get lucky. Ever wonder how awkward it can be when you need your father or mother to get laid. I would find it embarrasing.
Similiar to American Pie, its about getting laid with hot chicks. But a nerd cant secure a hot chick. It doesnt happen that way. So you deal with what you got. Even if she has freckles and crabs. You get what you can. But the film doesnt end in the laid idea. It actually ends up with two friends and a ex couple enjoying themselves. It doesnt show the boobs or the bare naked ass but it shows lessons. The lesson of friendship and the control of your own life. Its more of a emotional feeling then it is physical.
I dont think this is better then American Pie but its way of being a more original teen comedy is much more appeasing then to watch some American Pie spinoff. William H. Macy and Cheryl Hines are among my favorite actors who make this all the more humerous. The laugh out moments actually appear in the background then it is dialogue or on screen moments. A funny experiment with teen romance and marital problems that becomes a fresh comedy surrounding a nerdy high school kid.
