Critic Reviews

  • Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly

    A big, fat, juicy spitball lobbed, with mostly dead-on aim, at the teen-smarm clichés that have accumulated like so much earwax over the last three years.

  • Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

    It's stupid, it's obvious, it's scatological and violent -- but it made me laugh and I'm giving it thumbs up, God help me.

  • Desson Thomson, Washington Post

    More often than not you'll be groaning from painful recognition rather than actually laughing.

  • Rita Kempley, Washington Post

    Save your time, save your money, save your soul. Stay at home.

  • 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.

    This film actually surprisingly really made me laugh.

    Great spoofs, hot girls, awesome soundtrack and a cameo by Mr.T. Yes, this movie has it all! Parodying teen flick classics such as <i>The Breakfast Club</i>, <i>American Pie</i> and <i>10 Things I hate About You</i>, it's a pure joy to watch… More

    <b><i>Why the hot girls always walk in slow motion</i></b></p> Some part of this movie made this brilliant! Like wearing glasses and a ponytail makes a girl unpopular and ugly. A black guy who has limited dialogues to say in the whole video. There are… More

    Quite typical in the style of other spoof movies, this one based on teen film such as your Amercan Pie. It raised the odd chuckle, but it's a complete no brainer which is mildly amusing.
