It's woefully stereotypical and unfunny, even for the least discriminating viewers. Go to Full Review

It's not actually a film, but a 77-minute-long cry for help from a network talent show host and Disney personality who's desperately trying to shed his squeaky clean image. Go to Full Review

A 21st Century update of the beloved Shakespeare classic about a pair of star-crossed lovers from the opposite side of the tracks. Go to Full Review

0/5
Cannon is a big believer in the power of repetition. He apparently nurses a strong belief that if a gag isn't funny the first time around, it will somehow become hilarious the eighth or ninth time it's repeated. Go to Full Review

dede w Jul 17 They was funny as hell😂😂10/9.5 I would watch again See more Joshua K Jul 1 This movie has some of the most shitty writting not even the Talent could of made this movie "73%" with it hit or miss jokes with that stupid Nick Cannon humor he got working under Dan Schneider weird ass. If this movie didn't have A list Roster of Actors talent and name wise to save this movie it gets 1 star. If it wasn't for Mike Epps, George Lopez, Mike Warburton, Katt William, and TnA of grown women playing High-schoolers for some odd reason it would of steamed out Act one. The Cholos too stole the show. Those characters they canceled out the trash of Amber Rose, Kevin Hart, and Luenell. The rest of the cast did just an ok enough job for me to give this poorly written and directed piece doo-doo 2 1/2 stars... See more Jun 16 The film was fine, music was honestly outdated for todays standards but the core lesson about self confidence presented in this comedic way was executed well enough. Felt like a Boondocks episode that was turned into a full movie (minus the social commentary and consistent humor). Also, Anastacia isn't that pretty. I am sorry to break it to you, but every other girl in this movie was hotter. Anyways, give it a watch 2/5 stars. See more John A Apr 6 It's funny, ridiculous, over the top, crass, and full of tropes from start to finish. I went into it expecting a school dance parody and got what seemed like a school dance movie mixed with I'm Gonna Git You Sucka humor. A lot of great familiar faces, and everyone pulled their weight. It's no blockbuster, but def worth a watch if you're in the mood for an hour and a half of mindless fun and a happy ending. See more Sierra J Feb 1 I grew up on this movie and best believe I could know every line & occasionally quote it from time to time. Honestly love it. See more Pharaoh Z Jan 14 Honestly, this movie is truly for the youth culture and lovers of 4/20 culture and comedy. It’s not for everyone, but that’s what makes it more special. Unhinged comedy, music, dancing, and a feel good movie. Something not to take too serious, because like said before, it’s a Comedy. Nick Cannon did an amazing job with a star studded cast. It seems like a passion project for the culture. I go back and watch this movie every once in a while to get that early 2010s feel before things were too complicated with comedy and movies. An actual good time. See more Read all reviews
