Hilarious!

I went and saw Blockers this afternoon. It was outrageously hilarious and wildly entertaining. The film is the directorial debut of Kay Cannon, who wrote the Pitch Perfect movies and was a producer on 30 Rock. Blockers is about three parents (Leslie Mann, John Cena, Ike Barinholtz) who are determined to stop their teenaged daughters (Kathryn Newton, Gideon Aldon, Geraldine Viswanathan) from having sex for the first time on prom night. It is consistently funny and the screenplay is well written. The entire cast is great and everyone seems to be having fun with the material. I rate Blockers 8/10 and recommend it to anyone who likes a crazy, fun comedy.

I didn't think it was bad. It had some really funny moments and I thought Cena was pretty good. However it did have some very generic and cliche parts, especially the ending. Overall I would say it's an average comedy certainly worth a watch.

It was a waste. It could have been good, but everything seemed forced, especially unnecessary profanity. I should have expected it, though, considering Leslie Mann was in it.
