Summary: I'm Pushing 40 Years Old and I Got A Kick Out of It
Review: I've read horrible reviews about NATM, both here on Amazon.com and in the critical press and have avoided renting it on my biweekly trip to the video store. But one week left a slim collection of choices so I decided to finally take the plunge and rent it.

I'm glad I did, actually. The movie itself is typical sophomoric humor, but the spoofs of so many movies that I have watched over the years made it a lot of fun in viewing. References were made to two of my favorite 1980's movies that I thought were almost lost in obscurity: "Lucas" and "Better Off Dead". Some of my favorites of the recent genre are also covered including "American Pie" and "Cruel Intentions". I haven't seen all of the movies that NATM spoofs, but I bet the movie goes from one spoof scene to another throughout.

It was great to see the "Breakfast Club" detention spoof with Paul Gleason, the principal in the original movie. The kid who recreated the Judd Nelson role was dead-on. Also dead on was the "Sensitive Guy" who nailed Chris Klein's "Oz" character from "American Pie". I also got a kick out of the foreign exchange student. You know the foreign exchange student is going to get naked in the picture and the director found an interesting way to show that (by the way, whoever she is, she is absolutely gorgeous and almost puts Shannon Elizabeth to shame).

I am actually considering buying this on DVD. The extras that I viewed were fun and I bet the commentary tracks are fun and informative as well (might even allow me to pick up a couple of references I missed in the first couple of viewings).

All in all, a good and mindless 90 minute diversion.

Summary: Watchable
Review: I have to admit, it had it's funny moments. However, in between there was alot of dull moments. If you haven't seen most of the movies they were spoofing, don't watch it. This would include, Pretty in Pink(major one!!) She's all that(also very major) The Breakfast Club(has at least one whole scene devoted to it) Can't Hardly Wait, Bring it On, Cruel Intentions, etc, etc. Overall, it's a movie that you'll probably only watch once, so it's probably best to just rent it. Also, watch it with friends, that'll make it more interesting.

Summary: Take This Over Scary Movie Any Day
Review: Though there aren't many famous people in this film besides Sean Patrick Thomas and Melissa Joan Hart and Randy Quaid, it's funny and something people will enjoy. It's setting involves a local high school and much talk about the prom, the football team, and how people are unfairly divided up and judged at this level of their lives. There is always the ugly girl that gets the makeover to end up better-looking and stuff like that. This didn't win any awards, but it's something to do if you've got an hour and a half to spare.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Awful, terrible, horrible
Review: Oh my...What a terrible movie! Im not a critic nor intend to be. And yes I love stupid comic movies like Happy Gilmore, Tommy Boy or American Pie,...but...this movie. The movie tries to parody other "teen movies" without knowing that with this terrible movie the parody is on them for making such an empty comedy. The comedy may have at the most 3 funny instances, all the rest of this torture take cliches from other movies without the HUMOUR. How funny can it be! Its funnier to make a row on a bank than to watch this movie.

Summary: uurgh.
Review: This has to be the stupidest movie ive seen in a while. It starts out mocking lots of movies that were big chick flick hits, then focuses on She's All That. I thought that this might have a few good laughs in it, because generally i enjoy mocking things. But this was just STUPID. I can't believe i bought this w/o watching it. This DVD is destined to become a coaster very soon.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not at all what I thought it would be!
Review: I hardly ever buy a movie before I view it, but I thought that this would be a great movie, so I took a chance. Never again will I buy a movie without seeing it first. There were very few funny moments, and for the most part, it was just dumb. I love most of the movies that they used to make fun of, but they really didn't make things funny, at all! This is definately a movie I would watch before I waste money and buy it.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Watch out for the skewer!
Review: NATM is one of those films that requires a lot of pre-viewing - as in viewing the other films this one makes fun of. If you haven't had access to some of these films, the parody can go over your head. That is why it doesn't get a higher grade. It is good for a laugh - if you know what you are laughing about.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: An alright Movie....
Review: I rented this on dvd a couple of months ago, Since my Brother said it was a pretty funny movie i Decided to rent it and see for myself. Well to tell you the truth, It was pretty funny for the first 30 minutes or so. But after that it just started to go downhill from there and was just plain stupid.... Movie itself Was not that great, Not that bad either. It had what you would expect from an R rated movie, Nudity,Language and Offensive jokes and Getting into Pointless situations. It did have some amusing qoutes and alot of good looking girls plus "Mr T" ((However he only had a 5 minute part, Bummer.)) I hope if they Decide to make a sequel ((Which i Would'nt Doubt)) They could make more Intereactions in Funny Scenes and Jokes. If your looking to see another Teen comedy then give this a try. Overall i was expecting more From this but as i said it was OK.

But if you want to see something really funny go Rent Joe Dirt instead.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: NOT ANOTHER SPOOF MOVIE!
Review: THE FILM GOES FOR SHOCK VALUE, INSTEAD OF JUST VALUE. SPOOF MOVIE'S HAVE GOT TO BE CLEVER OR WHAT'S THE POINT. ALL THE MOVIES THAT THIS ONE TRIES TO BLASPHEME, HAVE ATLEAST A LIL' MORE VALUE. IF NOT ALOT. "NOT ANOTHER TEEN MOVIE" IS SOMEWHERE BETWEEN FAIR AND BAD.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Get the DVD...Not For Children
Review: The DVD extras are the best part.I loved this movie.It was funny.Being a fan of teen movies I liked it(I've seen all the spoofed movies except afew of the ones from the 80's.)One last thing if your a parent you might not want your child to see this movie.It contains nude scenes,and some stuff your child might no be ready for.
