I liked it

I got to say, I liked the movie. I auditioned for a part in the film, so I had a chance to read the script. I liked the script and I liked the movie. (No, I didn't get the part) You have to take it, for what it's worth. It's a raunch comedy. Have others done it better? Yes. Have others done it worse? Yes. I thought the cast was good. The writing was good. Shame on Screen Gems for giving it such a limited release. They should have opened it wider. And they should have opened it, last year. That being said, it is worth seeing. At least to me. If you like crude humor, then you might enjoy it as much as I did.

So it's a step above those really, really crappy low-budget tame sex comedies that flood the shelves every now and then? The trailer makes me want to buy it, but I'm 50/50. And Screen Gems? They make the best guilty pleasures!

If the apocalypse comes, beep me.

I'm surprised at how funny it actually was. I wasn't expecting much, but it actually had me close to tears at times. It's really raunchy, so if people don't like that then they definitely won't like this.

Overall, I'm glad I watched it . I probably wouldn't have if it weren't for the delicious Nicholas D'agosto.

You wish it was Ted! Don't forget to set the alarm...

Yeah, I thought it was decent enough.

Got a right few laughs out of it. Standard fare for this type of film but if you accept it for what it is, you'll enjoy it.

That was the same reaction I had. I like raunchy comedies and have been a fan of Bret Harrison since Reaper. When watching the trailer I knew I had seen Nicholas D'Agosto in other movies that I liked too, and of course there was Carmen Electra.

While watching the movie I kept trying to place who Regina Hall, Arielle Kebbel, and Danneel Ackles were. Did Arielle get a darker tan to look a lot more like Danneel? If you compare her in this to something like John Tucker Must Die it is like night and day (pun intended).

It was well worth the time to watch it for a few good laughs. I gave it a 6/10 even though I liked it because, well, movies like this aren't exactly masterpieces even if they are enjoyable.

On a side note, in the outtakes from the opening scene there is one girl who throws up when a naked Josh Gad slides in front of her. I almost wonder if she really did throw up! That entire sequence in the movie was just so ... disturbing yet funny.
