I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

This movie was as the header clearly states better than i thought. most straight to DVD comedies are completely asinine and unfunny wastes of time and judging by the box i thought this would be the same. but since I'm open minded and get it for free since i work at Hollywood video i gave it a chance and was pleasantly surprised. sure its completely cheap and as some way to long, pg-13 rated,and completely unnecessary oral sex scenes (suppose its where the title is derived from) but majority of the movie has some genuine laughs. i wouldn't go so far as to say better than any American pie movies or most other mainstream teen sex comedies mostly because it borrows too much (kid acting crazy due to drug overdose, diarrhea, and the aforementioned oral sex scenes) but it does contain a couple of its own scenes that i hadn't seen 18 times before that had me laughing. overall i say its worth a rental (especially if you get it free like me) if you like teen sex comedies.PS this movie has the most random and belated and unnecessary nudity scene i have EVER seen in a movie. (no nudity the entire thing and then randomly the girl who was topless the last third of the movie w/o showing anything streaks topless during the beginning of the credits)

Okay, so the guy or girl that said this movie was great clearly stared in it or made the horrible thing. Trust me, never ever see this movie, not even if your life depended on it. Where do I start? The directing? Horrible, seriously, there is no excuse for the lack of effort that went into this movie. Second rate casting and a poor director are a bad start Mr producer, what were you thinking? The script had some moments that you could see were dying to come out but were unfortunately crucified by the severe lack of comedic timing on the part of the cast and the director. Comedy is hard, don't try it if you can't do it, maybe soap opera is better? Sterile claustrophobic "sets" aka someone's house (guys, paint the walls next time) made it even more unbearable. All in all give me Jaws 3 with a little bit of Return of the Jedi and Jason X rolled into one and I'd be happier than watching this rubbish!

Had me laughing from start to finish! This was the first comedy where the girls were not only hot but smarting and having a better time than the guys. To see Principal Belding in a hot tub with babes was hillarious. Once scene after the next I couldn't start laughing. The story got more and more outrageous. The hooker was funny. Travis and Jamie were great. My favorite was the mom. What a funny bit#@h! Oh, and don't forget the cop. A bunbling idiot. Is that what LA cops are like? Finds this movie. I know it's playing in some local theaters (I saw it here in Florida) but if you can't find it in a theater then RENT IT!

I could crap a better movie. This is a waste of time and money. it makes me sick that movies like these are actually getting made and the people making them actually think they're good. I happen to like teen comedies, when they're done well. This movie, however, takes this genre to a new low. With movies like this, people think it's actually okay to make this filth and ask unsuspecting people to pay money to sit through it. It's sadism.
