Better Than You'll Expect, January 25, 2005
You would think that this movie is a really cheesy teen flick with gratuitous nude scenes and absolutely no story. Just look at the horrible box cover . . . it does no justice to what the movie really tries to cover: growing up, friendship, and love.
I just saw this movie for the first time the other day. I was expecting it to be a horrid piece of junk, but the movie completely surprised me. At best, critics will give it a B-/C+ (which is good considering that it's intended audience is the same people who love the American Pie movies).
The story? It's about a group of friends from Aspen who are moving on with their lives after college. Honestly, it's everything American Pie 2 wasn't but SHOULD HAVE BEEN.
Another good thing is that most teen-flick or WB watchers will recognize most of the cast. Although their acting isn't memorable, they do a fine job representing a typical group of guys and gals after college.
Overall, I was quite pleased with the movie. I didn't see it on DVD, so I can't comment on any special features or anything. But strictly about the movie, you'll have a good time watching this with your buddies or gals. Although it's far from being a really great film, it does stand out among the newer (2000-2005) teenage or young adult releases.

Couldn't get past the cheap shots, December 30, 2011
I'm sure it was a funny movie. Luckily I didn't have to pay for it because I didn't even finish the movie. I'm thinking the screenwriter has some bone to pick with Buffalo, NY. That's the crux of the movie, the main character, in order to start paying off his student loans after college, has to take a menial job at his uncle's business in the northern most, snow filled city of America, Buffalo, NY. Nearly in Canada as the main character's ex girlfriend put it succintly. Meanwhile, it's December 30th, 2011, right now and we've barely gotten an inch of snow here. Which sucks because my nephews wanted to go sledding. Anyways, I didn't really appreciate the cheap shots at my city. It would have been funny one or two times.

Loads of laughs with a lot of heart!, March 5, 2004
I thought this movie was hilarious. It had loads of laughs when the four friends get together, and when the girls come in they create two cute love stories. It's a story about what we know we have to do after graduation, and the fear that we might choose the wrong path. In the end the movie shows that along with friendship, laughs, and love, the path is easy to find, if you follow you heart. This movie is definitely a must see.
