Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Not worth it.
Review: I've always been a fan of MTV's Real World, so I thought the movie would be worth seeing. I have never seen so much nudity and stupidity. I seriously cannot see how this movie got a R rating.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: So-So Score 4 The Real Cancun
Review: The people that brought us The Real World now give us The Real Cancun. It was better than I thought it would be, but not by much. Too be honest the action seemed a little too tame or edited to hit the R rating. If you missed out on Spring Break this might be worth a look, but if you want hot action I suggest
AMERICA'S WILDEST BACHELOR PARTIES or WORLD'S WILDEST COLLEGE PARTIES.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: SAD AND DEPRESSING BUT IT'S IN FOCUS
Review: Sixteen vapid, semi-attractive, alleged college students head to Cancun for Spring Break and act like idiots while the camera rolls. This soft porn exploitation is weirdly grim, pointless, contrived, shallow, embarrassing, and devoid of joy, wit or charm. The characters are cyphers without human interest. And the music is even worse. I gave it one star because this very sad and depressing film is in focus.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: I can't believe I watched it
Review: Okay, the Real World and Road Rules from MTV started back when I was in my 20s, and I could relate to some of the people, although I realized right away that these people were not living in the Real World at all. I thought it might be nice to be part of the Real World, but I was already over 25, and as we all know, no one in the real world is over 25.

I guess the problem for me is that I kept getting older while the people on the new shows each season just stay in their early 20s. How real is that? As time went on I watched less and less, and now I haven't seen a Real World or Road Rules episode for ages.

One of the things I always felt watching the shows though was that it was too bad there was censorship on television. I always got the feeling there was something just happening off camera, behind the doors, or on the cutting room floor. And I don't just mean bedroom stuff, either.

Well, in making a movie, MTV wanted to get away from that limitation, but it didn't really work. There's not enough time to know the characters, and the wilder side just seems to be nudity for the sake of pleasing a camera, not involvement with each other. Again, how real is that? They start with 16, but end up following only about half a dozen in any depth, and of course in 90 minutes you can't really even do that many people much justice for finding out who they are.

One thing that I am reminded of is that the Gulf War started while this film was being shot and all these kids were partying in Cancun and not a word was spoken or mentioned by anyone about that. Again, how real is that?

Not very real, and I guess it just shows that I am really getting old. Of course I am over 30 now, so can you trust me?

I can't believe I watched it.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Too many people
Review: With sixteen people you cant really keep track of everyone, plus the movies seems to really focus on a select few. If you like the Real World and Girls Gone Wild then you'll love this. I dont know how anyone could have seen this on the big screen.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Cancun NOT BAD
Review: Well, I though this movie would suck big time, but I was very wrong, this mivie is a cool reality movie for a teen whose life is borring, you get exitement in this movie!
I cannot say this is the best movie but it entratains!
:)

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Really Dull
Review: It's obvious they know the cameras are there, so you know they act more a fool than if they were not being filmed, aren't all realty type shows becoming this way, the more a performance you put on, the more on screen time you will get, hence it all seems an act.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: funny
Review: the movie was funny and enjoyable. watching the students let lose (LIKE WE ALL WANT TO DO EVERYDAY) in Cancun of all places, on an all expenses paid trip was great. the movie was put together well and watching the cast bond was the best part. i don't understand the movie's flop.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Actually enjoyed it...
Review: I actually enjoyed it. I don't know what people were expecting... an Oscar contender? I guess maybe I enjoyed it because I wanted a wild spring break when I was in college, and I never got it. Oh well... I just thought the movie was enjoyable.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Real Fun
Review: I'm not a person who gets into the reality genre, in fact, The Real Cancun is pretty much the only reality material I've ever sat through, as hard as that is to believe. It's sorta hard to really describe why I loved this movie as much as I did, as many movies as I sit through it's weird that a reality movie becomes one of the most fun and funniest hour and a half I've sat through in a while. This movie brings you so into the experience of Cancun you almost forget you are sitting in a theater. One of the best things about this film is Alan, the nondrinker, being a nondrinker myself I knew how he was thinking and I saw a little bit of myself, and when he started getting wild I really started to cheer him on, and I thought to myself, this guy shoulda stared in last year's disaster The New Guy, because he has what it takes to fill the role that the extremely creepy D.J Qualls shoulda never got, cause Alan's a bit of a dork, but he has what it takes to become the hot stud. It's odd that I'm here praising a reality movie but here I am, I loved The Real Cancun, if you want a good time at the theater it comes strongly recommended by me.
