The Trailer

The Review

I didn’t have the best of time watching this one.

Maybe I had enough of watching Michael Cera playing his usual geek role.

The movie has it’s funny moments, but it wasn’t that outright hilarious type.

This is a coming-of-age type of film that deals with teen angst and sex.

Nothing new, been there, done that.

The Good

• Good ensemble cast

The Bad

• The comedy seemed forced
  The chemistry was not engaging
