I absolutely did not like _Not Another Teen Movie_, but even I have to give it props for how it absolutely disassembled everything in the genre up to the point of its creation, and absolutely set the tone for everything in the genre that came after it. That doesn't stop it from being crass in the worst possible way, or completely uncomfortable. Or completely unoriginal... although I guess you could argue that part is by necessity... Look, what I'm saying is, credit where credit's due. It's like, fuck _Transformers_, what a garbage bunch of films those are, but at the same time, it's hard to knock a billion dollar gross earning. _Final rating:★★ - Definitely not for me, but I sort of get the appeal_.

This movie is so hilarious. It will be a lot more funny to you if you seen all the movies that this is making fun of. I can't remember all the movies off the top of my head, but I know it's Varsity Blues, American Beauty and Bring It On to name 3 at least.

Okay spoof movie that made me laugh quite a few times at least. Nothing great and like most of these if you haven't seen the movies its spoofing, doesn't work as well. I did like Chris Evans before he was famous who shows his comedic talents. Not as good as Scary Movie but far exceeds the other dreaded "Movie" movies, not a high bar I admit. **2.75/5**
