Rating: Summary: Don't Expect Good-Looking Women Review: This was a decent little movie. It was very low budget, but like an early reviewer said it doesn't feel like it after you continue to watch it. I almost turned it off in the first 15 minutes of the movie, but decided to stick it out. The storyline of the two bullies of the Frat picking on the smaller pledger had me hooked and I wanted to see the bullies get theirs. There are some some actors many will recognized in this movie (Sherminator for one) who all did a good job. The rest of the cast was pretty bad. I took this as just like one of those USA "Up All Night" movies. Its a "American Pie/Animal House" wannabee. Too much gross humor for me. Those are cheap laughs. I am starting to get tired of them and I everytime I see these movies I understand why the youth of America today doesn't truly know what funny is. Its sad. Have guys do their thing on a cookie and the last man to "pop" eat it is on NOT, I REPEAT NOT FUNNY. ITS GROSS.

Rating: Summary: Funniest elevator scene ever! Review: Wow! Not since my brush with Beat Takeshi's "Hana-bi" has a film tested the limits of my patience, for this film is neither engaging nor funny. Storytelling (thinly, a college student joins a fraternity so that his cousin can join too, not knowing that he is being used to defeat a rival fraternity) and character development (just look at the "romance"), not to mention many missed opportunities at good humor, take a backseat in this 90-minute collection of what pretend to be disgusting (though well-meaning) gags. Even though some of the gags when left in isolation are quite funny, the supposed grossness of the movie quickly becomes boring since nothing apparently is at stake, so the gags exist without meaning. Surely someone with an inclination towards gross-out gags may enjoy it. Yet after repeated viewings, even he may find it frustrating to question, in ultimate futility, what is the urgency and the gravity that keeps our heroes performing these scenes. Though it's admirable that the film was shot with an extremely low budget, it's sad to see a slew of young talents with true potential bogged down in a film like this, especially the Plum One, Charlie Talbert, and his buddy, Chris Owen.
