BOTTOMS, a refreshingly unique raunchy comedy, focuses on two girls, PJ and Josie, who start a fight club as a way to lose their virginities to cheerleaders. Their bizarre plan works. The fight club gains traction and soon the most popular girls in school are beating each other up in the name of self-defense. But PJ and Josie find themselves in over their heads and in need of a way out before their plan is exposed.

Critics Consensus

Propulsive and over-the-top, Bottoms is an instant high school comedy classic that feels both current and nostalgic.

4/5

Real-life friends Sennott and Edebiri are harmonious in ways that relieve them of the need to land flat-out punchlines. Instead, they just sweat funny out of their pores.

3/5

Even if the scattershot plotting doesn’t quite hold together, there’s a wayward energy to the picture and a barbed sense of mischief.

The film’s unrelentingly dry tone contributes to its playfully ridiculous feel — it is at once the thing and a send-up of the thing. Teen sex romps have a formula for a reason.

Bottoms is absolutely riddled with raunchy, absurdist comedy that could make even your Catholic grandmother laugh. Perhaps the film's strongest attribute is that it doesn't take itself too seriously.

The screenplay walks a fine line between parody and reality, lampooning sex comedies in a way that both pays homage to undersung classics like “Not Another Teen Movie” and attempts to decode the structures that define young women’s relationships to sex

A fresh take on the teen sex comedy. A film hasn't made me laugh this much in a long time.

The movie was quirky, fun, had clear satire, and the teenagers looked and acted like teenagers for the most part. Would see again.
