2.0 out of 5 stars
Might want to skip this one?,
By D. Roberts "Hadrian12" (Battle Creek, Michigan United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Senior Skip Day (Unrated) (DVD)
The premise of this movie is pretty straightforward: every year, according to a tradition, the senior class takes a day off. The Principal of the school is determined to wreck the plans of the senior class. A geeky dude is caught in the middle of it all.
One of the "innovations" of this film is to feature 2 alumni of party movies & teen flicks - this time as the adult figures. Lea Thompson (Some Kind of Wonderful (Special Collector's Edition), All the Right Moves and Casual Sex?) stars as the mother of the geek. As she's about my age, this film made me feel kind of old! Meanwhile, Tara Reid (American Pie - Unrated (Widescreen Collector's Edition) and National Lampoon's Van Wilder - Unrated (Two-Disc Special Edition)) is the geek's older sister. Obviously, the inside joke is that Thompson & Reid used to be in these very sorts of films starring as the teens-running-amock. Ultimately, while the nostalgia of Thompson & Reid was nice, I found this film on the lame side. There are a comical parts, but nothing that made me have a guffaw of a laugh. The funeral that supposedly lasts the whole day is well beyond the realm of believablity. Also, for a film that advertises itself as "unrated and uncut," it's on the tame side. It's a far cry from crazy flicks such as National Lampoon's Animal House and Old School (Widescreen Unrated Edition). So, if you're in the market for a party movie, I would pass this one over as there are plenty of other PM flicks that are much more worthwhile. This one isn't terrible (perhaps just a shade shy of 3 stars), but isn't noteworthy, either. Perhaps the one thing that might draw the curious to this film is Lea Thompson playing the mother in a party flick. Of course, that's pretty much just out of nostalgia alone.

terribly unfunny movie,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Senior Skip Day (Unrated) (DVD)
What are these other reviewers thinking??!! I bought this because so many of them said it was funny, yet there was not one laugh to be had in the whole movie. The acting is just awful, and Tara, Lea, and Norm had glorified 2 minutes each and were just along for a paycheck. A truly bad movie. One of the worst and unfunniest movies I have ever seen. If I could give 0 stars, I would have. They just do not make good teen comedies anymore. Any of the American Pie movies were 10,000 times funnier and better written and acted.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Maybe the uncut version is better... who knows.. and i dont care,
By Micheal Hunt (Hellbourne) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Senior Skip Day (DVD)
"Skip Day" is about a student who screws up the 'skip day' party by letting the principal know where it was to be held. He redeems himself by having the party at his place.
The plot, if you can call it one, is the principal trying to find where it is to bust it but is sent on a wild goose chase instead, all while the dork having the party wants to win over a girl, but the girl is taken by a guy who is the typical moron that is only after one thing and is typically cheating on her and doesn't deserve her and ...euhh... blah blah blah blah... you know what comes next. Nothing original, and nothing that stood out well enough to call it memorable. See it if you can't get enough of the party movies, but don't expect anything to have you rolling on the floor with laughter. Edit: well, it's now 2011, and I have no recollection of ever seeing this movie. Guess that proves what I said about it being memorable!
