November 2, 2009This is quite awful and hardly ever funny. The cast is no help, no one is very good. Poorly written, scattered direction. Forget this one. It sure sounded good, but a good idea blown.

Every so often a movie comes along that confirms one's worse fears about civilization as we know it. The New Guy is one of them. full review

July 23, 2009This was a great movie it was so funny! The greatest pert was that my sister's old high school was his new high school in that movie and from where I lived I was able to watch filming that was pretty cool! This movie was a true teen comedy it was great. People should respcet it more.
