This review is from: Going Down (DVD)
This falls into the 3% of movies that I've rented expecting to at least somewhat enjoy that ended up being too boring to endure. The script has an amateurish d.i.y. vibe, but not in a unique-comedic-voice-that-actually-has-something-to-say way, in a failed-attempt-at-conventional-edgy-comedy-way. The writer has no ability to create likeable characters, pace a plot, set up a comedic situation, or write dialogue. He wanted so bad to be clever and quirky but every situation or character he introduced to that end just fell flat on it's face. Surely there are plenty of decent writers out there struggling to get their work looked at. How a script so bad actually got financing is beyond me. Maybe the writer has a producer for a dad or something? Obviously some people liked this movie, so you probably shouldn't take my word for it that you won't like it, but I really can't fathom what it would take to enjoy it. Maybe you just have to be someone who thinks any allusion to sex, drugs, and partying automatically equals funny? If you're a Family Guy fan you'd probably like it.

Stupid Comedy,
By Artist & Author (Near Mt. Baker, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Going Down (DVD)
The best thing about this movie is that it is a comparatively short movie. Maybe I am a bit sullen about it because when I was in high school a boy I knew had a party at his house when his parents were away on vacation, and the kids did so much damage that it made both the national news and the Reader's Digest. Jack, in this movie, was lucky that didn't happen to his house. The only good I can say about this movie is that it could serve as some half-baked warning to teens to not host parties when their parents are away. Beyond that, it uses about every trick in the book to break traditional values of honesty, sexuality, etc.

Bad but oddly funny,

This review is from: Going Down (DVD)
typical plot, parents coming home early, have to clean up party before they get home. Nothing special about this film in any way. But there is something about the supporting character that made me laugh, prompting the higher rating.
