Summary: So Bad Its Good!!
Review: I knwo that many people hated this flick, but I thought it was great. Lots of trampy people tramping around, dumb drunk men saying dumb drunk things, and the infamous virgin who turns out not to be. Though it is a tad on the graphic side, I would recommend this one to anyone looking for a silly flick to relax with. This film will definitely make you want to go down South, though maybe not for Spring Break.... LOL

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Better then exected
Review: I went into this DVD with very low expectations, and I found myself pleasantly surprised. What I thought would be a 1-star movie turned into an interesting reality show. Sixteen college students travel to Cancun to spend Spring Break. That's pretty much the sum of the main storyline. There are several subplots as the students start to pair up for the week. Love blossoms and dies, and a young man matures (at least in the eyes of his "friends"). The only main fault is the number of participants. I had a hard time keeping track of who was who.

This is a fun movie to watch, however, if you're looking for some light-hearted entertainment. A must for any fan of reality TV, too.

Summary: just bad....
Review: A film by Rick de Oliveira

The Real Cancun is brought to us by the good folks who gave us MTV's The Real World. In this movie, MTV takes 16 college aged students on a spring break to Cancun. They are put up in a house and they are filmed for the length of their stay. This film has been rated R for "strong sexuality/nudity, language and partying." This is a reality film in the vein of The Real World. We get to see 16 real college students partying on spring break. We expect that we'll see more sex, nudity, and cursing than we get on The Real World. There is more of each, but the movie (such as it is) fails where The Real World succeeds.

Part of the tagline for this movie reads "Anything can happen on Spring Break-and it did!" Perhaps anything did happen, but the problem is that this "anything" was boring. Watching The Real World, we get to find out who these people are and we can begin to be interested in what happens to the kids on The Real World. I understand that The Real Cancun is only an hour and a half for the entire film (rather than multiple hour long episodes), but it suffers from not allowing the viewer to identify with any of the kids on Spring Break. Actually, the movie suffers from a lot more than just that, but the lack of identification was a biggie. Since I had no idea who more than half of the kids were, I didn't care what happened to them. By the end, I was able to recognize a small handful of them, but I just didn't care.

Something else that was done well on the Real World was that every episode had a storyline running through it, and with editing, we were brought along that storyline. There was nothing in The Real Cancun. It was a collection of scenes featuring the same people, but nothing more than that.

The bottom line is simply that this is a bad movie. It wasn't funny when it was intending to be funny, and it didn't have the interest level required of a "reality" show. Even if you take this as a T&A movie, it fails on that point, too. I'd really like to find something positive to say about The Real Cancun, but I just can't think of anything.

Summary: uh-huh....this movie sucks

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: The worst movie known to Mankind
Review: I have never seen such a piece of trash in all of my life. If you're expecting the light fun of the Real World series, this is not it. This is pure crap. No, it's worse than crap, but I don't think I can use the words here that would TRULY describe it. If it were possible, I'd give this negative 5 stars.

The filmmakers take no time to introduce the characters, you are just plunged headlong into a week full of boozing and hooking-up. The kids sleep all day and drink and party all night, and that's it. Nothing more. I really feel for the parents of these kids, they must be so ashamed of how their children turned out. I'm ashamed, too, though, that I wasted my valuable time on this horrible film.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: what were they thinking?
Review: this movie doesnt even begin to describe pathetic
what was the point out of watching the movie besides giving high school seniors ideas of their college party trips
these pathetic MTV kids give americans like me a bad name
is this the only reason people go to college nowadays?
this is a message to any college student who shames their name by partying day after day:
Overdose and die so theres more room for me on this earth!

Summary: BIG WASTE OF MONEY!!!
Review: What a piece of crap!! I saw this in the movie theatre and my biggest regret was that I didn't leave in the first five minutes. There are no words in the english language that can adequately describe how horrible this movie was/is. Just rotten. I am not the type of person who reviews movies here, but this was so bad I just had to let people know. I can almost guarantee that the people giving this 4 and 5 stars are really the director or from the studio. Only a very very STUPID person could enjoy this movie. It isn't even worth describing here. This movie is not what they says it is. This is so bad that they should not make a penny on this film....PLEASE don't buy this sh*t, it will only encourage them to do more awful work. If I could sue them to get my money back from the ticket I bought to see this, I would!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Bleh.
Review: I haven't yet seen a MTV movie worth giving a good rating. And after seeing this I see their getting even more desperate. Give it up already.

I lost many brain cells watching this crap for crap movie. Don't waste your time. If your into that sorta thing and you want to see naked people, cut out the middle man and just find some porn. It would be less embarassing to be seen getting that than this.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not what most people are expecting...
Review: I'll be frank and say I'm not a big fan of those MTV reality TV shows. And I'll be honest the only reason I even went to this movie is because I was expecting to see very beautiful girls, and I'm a big dumb male in that way. But the movie turned out to be more than that, it was actually funny. Alan, one of the characters, reminded me of myself, and I could really relate to him. This movie isn't just for those reality TV fans, it's for a lot of people. I thought the people in the movie were a lot of fun and very colorful.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What the hell is this
Review: I have no idea who on Earth gave this 'movie' the green light to being made.

It is absolutely sickening and appalling that they actually promote such idiotic behavior in such popular media these days.

This is a plotless piece of garbage is just a horrible idiotic filmshots of a bunch of repulsive college students who go to Cancun and go on major alcoholic binge-drinking to an absolutely sickening degree. What makes it so cool to get drunk? Maybe I sound a little too overreactive to this crap but I lost a friend in an alcohol-related accident years back so I have grief at the sad state of the entertainment industry, promoting this awful behavior in these movies.

I can enjoy a great vacation to Cancun.......without resorting to any alcoholic drinking sprees.

The so-called 'hot chicks' as many proclaim, are not attractive at all. In fact, they are repulsive. Even the guys are absolutely repulsive to look at.

Drinking, and sex make a terrible and even fatal combination. Alcohol does not increase your sexual desire, nor improve your sex lives. It instead will suppress your sexual desires and ultimately ruin a lot more than just a good and healthy sex life.

I'm a college student, in the same age area as the cast of "The Real Cancun" but I am absolutely offended and saddened at the pathetic state that the entertainment industry has sunk to.

Then again, I shouldn't be so upset as they got what they deserved with this movie failing miserably at the box office. Perhaps it's a sign that our society, while still seamingly a mudhole of idiocity in many places, is beginning to wake up and realize that such immature, disgusting, vile, and absolutely insulting reality show garbage like this is destined to be tossed into the caverns of shame.

If this is what Cancun is really like, which I highly doubt, then I'm so glad to live in a region of the country where winters are long and severe. Winter and heavy snow, and extremely cold weather have never sounded so good. I'd rather be by the fireplace on a cold winter night than at a beach party drinking and acting like a low-life drunk.
