Audience Member I created an account just to review this movie Now, I haven't seen it in a few years, but it's one of the only movies I have ever rewatched, because I genuinely enjoyed it a lot. They did a lot with a small budget. It was a fun movie all around, always left me with that feeling of moving on and forwards, the fear, anxiety, excitement, curiosity, etc Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review Audience Member Loved it. Lots of talking but it's quick and unique. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Really, really funny. It is low budget and like others said it is limited by locations. I would LOVE to see this remade on a budget. You could easily use 75% of the current script and probably tweak the scenes for more locations and bigger, wilder parties. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Much, much better than all of those American Pie knockoffs. Probably not quite as good overall as the original AP, but I bet a laughed more at this movie that at AP. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Funny, offensive, rude. I don't know what that guy meant by 'bland uncomfortable Kevin Smith light". It is much funnier than anything Smith ever wrote, especially Clerks. I guess because they said "d!ck" in Clerks but 'weiner' in Kicking The Dog? But look at the cast - one features 2 drug dealers and a guy working in a tiny convenience store. The other is a bunch of college grads or soon-to-be grads and I think they have matured beyond saying 'd!ck" when joking around and find 'wiener' funnier, which i do as well. And Kicking The Dog has a midget, strap-on, an incredible "sharing" scene which I don't want to give away because it's crazy and a funny chubby kid just looking to get his hands on some panties. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member As funny as i remember it. Saw it a few years ago in high school and thought it was hysterical. I guess I haven't grown up because I think it's as funny as ever. Plus it makes my girlfriend horny (no idea why and I'm not asking or questioning it!). It is about 90% sex talk and scenes so that's probably why. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
