"Those Brits! I saw this movie on DVD while I was travelling in Australia, and I gotta tell you I was surprised! I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!! It's pretty much a standard teen-movie - American Pie - parents go on vacation, hormonal guys have a party to get it on with the ladies... excepts somehow, becuase it's in England it feels, I dunno, different. The guys seem real, and the party, amazingly doesn't feel bolted on like it does in our (US) teen comedies.
There are two really cool scenes - each of them with Neil's best bud, Matt. One of them they're trying to choose - like they'd ever get the chance to - between 'Britney or Kylie(Minogue - the Australian fox)' - Matt introduces all sorts of sicker and sicker things to chose from - ending up with a really gross out one (on the trailer). The second one has a line - "Neil, the day I take sex advice from you is the day I chop my nob off and sell it on Ebay". They really made the movie for me.
Neil, the main guy, is a lovable cross between Mr Bean and Jude Law - and really someone I wanna see in another movie.
By the end of the movie me and my Aussie friend were totally into it - and unlike Pie, I was actaully a bit moved! Which is sad really - becuase we only picked this DVD because it had a cute chick on the front! :) (You're not let down there, btw).
THESE GUYS SHOULD BE MAKING THE NEXT STUDIO TEEN COMEDY, because as far as I could tell, they really 'get it'. Anyway, psyched it's coming out over here - the one I bought in Australia didn't work here - which [...] - as I carried it all over the world on my back for 6 months!"
This movie rocks!

"This is a great funny movie outside of the mainstream. A good find definitely worth the money."
THE TITLE SAYS IT ALL

"This was a lot better than I was expecting, considering I hadn't heard of it before. It was obviously made cheaply but its heart is in the right place. The characters were a good mix, the jokes were good, and by the end I really wanted to go back to the start and watch it again right away."
