Not Another Teen Movie

Chyler Leigh, Chris Evans, Jaime Pressly

What a year at John Hughes High! The Wasp football team goes all the way -- into the cellar, that is, when quarterback Jake Wyler makes an errant pass and Reggie Ray racks up his umpteenth concussion....( read more  read more... ) Things perk up at a dazzling year-end prom when conjoined twins Kara and Sally Fratelli are crowned prom queens. Other highlights from this year include a nasty toilet explosion that drops in the middle of Mr. Keller's English class, Jake fails to seduce Janey with a human whipped cream sundae and Janey is apprehended by police after Jake's moving serenade of Aerosmith's "Janey's Got a Gun". Many new faces deck the halls this year, including Sadie, a 90 year-old undercover reporter and foreign exchange student Areola, who becomes the object of lust for all American nerds. Malik continues to be the "token black guy," Catherine is still in love with her brother, Bruce still thinks he's Asian, and Ox is still a virgin...

    My guilty pleasure of the month. I laughed the first time i saw it, and i still do. I always debated about giving this one a thumbs up, but really, why the f$#k not? Especially considering how terrible these spoof movies have become lately.

  • March 4, 2008
    Back in 2001, "Scary Movie" was still fresh in our minds and that's why this one looked like an old joke already, and at the same time, as something that unexplicably excelled our expectations. It's hilarious at every single moment, original in its own unoriginality and brings ba... ...( read more )

In the immortal words of teen movies: It's totally lame. full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

The makers of Not Another Teen Movie should be embarrassed that, in parodying She's All That, they copied most of the plot and then made a movie that bogs down in the same places as the original. full review

A.O. Scott, The New York Times

Not Another Teen Movie is a happy, nasty and frequently hilarious assault on 20 years' worth of youth pictures. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

It was not good to see yet still more wretched excess in the jokes about characters being sprayed with vast quantities of excrement. full review

    The fact that they got Jaime Pressly, Chris Evans, Randy Quaid, and Lacey Chabert shows that they can certainly write good enough material. I didn't go into this expecting much, but it turned out quite funny. The random songs, Austin's continuous name calling, stupid lines and the awkward relationships between the characters - not to mention the slapstick comedy - makes this movie golden. In fact, I liked this movie better than Monty Python's The Life Of Brian and I'm a huge fan of the Monty's. "You're my sister!" "Only by blood!" Golden!
