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...

    A lewd, crude, rude and a lot of nudity rather funny film. Not heard much about it, so I expected the worse.....but actually found myself laughing an awful lot! It's a great spoof mainly of She's all that, American Pie, Cruel Intentions and Pretty in Pink. Featuring a great came...( read more)o from Molly Ringwald, Lindsay Lohan from Mean girls and even Mr T! Along the way there are scenes aimed at Porky's, Grease, Risky Business, the list is endless. Every type of humour is here and if you know the mentioned films well you could like it. Not a bad DVD with a quiz on teen movies, Music videos, Making of as well. Overall a fun package and even a lot of females on my friend list liked it to my surprise!

    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.

    A genius spoof movie that hits the mark evey time. It pokes fun at a genre that needed to be laughed at, but still have some respect for some of the great movies they're making fun of.
    The cast is excellent and fit into their cliche roles perfectly. Evans, Leigh, Pressly, Quiad,...( read more) Olsen, Jungmann, McMains, they all do a great job. Throw in some hilarious cameos from Mr. T, Molly Ringwald, and Paul Gleeson and you've got yourself a great movie.
    The story has a perfect mix of movies from the 80s to the 90s which is one of the reasons I like it, cause it's just not a bunch of random sketches and pop culture refrences like the newer spoof movies.
    *cough* Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer's movies *cough*.
    It's well worth watching if you get the chance so check it out!
    END OF CREDITS: Scene shortly after the credits have started and also at the very end of the credits.

    "All I said was, "I'm pretending to whisper a big secret in your ear, so Jake here thinks that I'm telling you a big secret, which will cause him to break into a hysterical confession where he actually reveals... a big secret. Thus confirming everything I just whispered in your ear."

Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times

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

December 14, 2001
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

December 14, 2001
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!
