Considering movies like "Sex Drive", "Fired Up!", "She's Out of My League", and a bunch of other teen sex comedies, this movie could've came out in the theaters and easily done much better than most of those. You look at it and see Rob Schneider's in it and immeadially think how bad this movie must be. But it's really better than one might think. It's the tale of a college student (Jenna Dewan) in college on a full abstinence scholarship, who is tricked into getting drunk one night and winds up topless on a soon-to-be-released topless college co-eds tape. Now begins the hunt to track down the incriminating tape and to clear Priscilla's name before her scholarship, her good name, and entire future, goes down the drain.

Rob Schneider works well as, basically, Joe Francis, the guy behind Girls Gone Wild. His character really is despicable in this. I really enjoyed Priscilla White's 'descent into sinfulness' they show throughout the movie, as her madcap adventure makes her less and less pure, as her "Purity Meter" decreases. Jenna Dewan is a MUCH better actor than her "G.I. Joe" husband, Channing Tatum. Like many movies like these, we have forgettable supporting actors along for the ride, but none of them are really too bad. The sex and nudity was less than you'd think (meaning they don't overuse it just for the sake of it) and in the end, we learn a valuable lesson about sex and respect for women.

Although Jenna Dewan and Rob Schnieder are the only noticable faces in this, it's actually worth seeing, at least if you've seen "Road Trip", "Sex Drive", or the "American Pie" spin-offs and other movies like this in the genre. It's actually even probably better than those. Just not 'Great.'

The critics trashed it. Not a big box office hit. They said it was nothing but a cheap skin movie. So, I got a copy :-)

It's really funny! I've watched it 4 times already. It hits on a number of social issues and how ridiculous people can be on both sides. The cast fits the parts. The pace is fast so it'll keep your attention.

It's rated "R" so not for general family viewing. But, it's comedy subject R, not sex & violence R.

Personally, I think it's one of the best movies of the past 5 years. I know that's not saying much considering what's in the theaters, but I liked it.

Very entertaining if you like fairly rude comedies. The movie is the perfect amount of time, and has an excellent ending.

Bought this DVD for $2 at Target, so I couldn't resist a cheap movie. This movie was a whatever movie, it wasn't horrible but it also wasn't great. No expectations. This movie was trashy though, it extremely dirty. But it was still a good movie and I'd recommend it - only if you found it on the $2 rack at your local Target.
