I know the producer, so I was invited to a screening in North Carolina. I really didn't know what to expect out of this movie because I hadn't heard much about it.
Pros--- I really enjoyed the movie a lot because it made me laugh a lot. I do not typically go see comedies unless they are romantic comedies. I would say that it was probably one of the best movies that I have seen in awhile. I would have to say that it was also very tastefully done. The humor wasn't overdone, so it didn't feel like a fake humor. I felt like most of the humor came from witty comments that I'm not sure everyone in the audience got, but there were quite a few of us that found it hilarious.
Cons--- If I had any complaints at all about it then I would have to say it would be the language. In some instances I felt like the foul language was overused to a point where it was a little distracting and took away from the overall movie b/c I don't feel like everyone talks like that. It may be a generational gap/area of the country gap with me though b/c these were supposed to be high school students. I don't feel like I'm terribly old though, and I do cuss so I'm not a prude. I guess it was just a little more than I was used to, and as a parent it made me feel a little awkward with my 13 year old cousin at the movie. I didn't feel it was appropriate for the 13 year old age group because of foul language alone, and it should probably be rated R when it's in theaters. However, with that said I really did enjoy the movie!
Someone in the audience said the hideous yellow feather looking dress made that one girl look like big bird at the prom, which I found very funny in the middle of the quiet movie theater.
