Teenager Deacon (Erik von Detten) works at a video shop, and his buddies, Fred (Tony Denman) and Matt (Daniel Farber), sell the bootleg porno films he acquires. Deacon gets fired, but the pals have the bright idea of filming their own Internet porn flick in order to make money and become more popular at school. Hijinks ensue as they cast and create their movie, but porn industry player Vic Ramalot (Horatio Sanz) grows jealous of their burgeoning success and tries to put a stop to the project.

Lacks even the urge to find a sparkling angle on an overdone subgenre.

Tom Arnold plays Deacon's dad -- his presence really tells you everything you need to know about the film.

Don't expect to watch American Pie or Porkys, this is a poor derivative with admittedly a few laugh-out-loud moment.

This is a completely rote teen sex comedy which is very amusing at points and actually quite well-attuned to adolescent male psychology, in my opinion.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

"Casi Ilegal" De todo menos chistosa queriendo ser una versión remangada y reducida de "American Pie" sin éxito alguno.
