Critics Consensus

Sex Drive has some hilarious moments and is well made for a raunchy teen film, but will appeal to few beyond that demographic.

Okay, it doesn't have an original bone in its body, but forgetting the awful title, Sex Drive has its share of snappy lines and decent gags. It's also got Seth Green and James Marsden on cracking form, which should never be underestimated.

Rated: 3/5

Pretty much everything has been done before in teen sex comedies - and the creators here know it.

Sure in essence it's formula and pretty much just a romantic comedy, but [the film] is a sex fueled hilarious teen comedy/road flick...

Never seen this before. A film of its time. Funny but not as full on crude as some of those we watched back in the eighties and nineties. Was a lot of fun.

Raunchy teen comedy is full of distasteful scenes... And even cruel humor... The scene where the bully older brother terrorizes the hero (which are played for laughs) are especially sadistic... Overall: Thumbs down 👎

After 15 years I actually still like it One of those rare films that brought up catfishing as a genuine concern when it comes to meeting strangers over the internet Josh Zuckerman, Amanda Crew, Seth Green, James Marsden, and Katrina Bowden Ian is a young teenager desperate to lose his virginity and become a man He has an older bully of a brother who values his orange GTO more than anything Ian has this goal of meeting a beautiful woman across the country after talking to her on the Internet Of course his two friends Felicia and Lance joining him; Lance wants to go his own way while Felicia absolutely has no interest in Ian feeling like she's a third wheel Director Sean Anders makes the kind of road trip movie you'd expect with all kinds of shenanigans Some snappy lines and some funny gags, a lot of the stuff from Seth Green is the best next to the Mexican donut bit Plus plenty of debates about love, sex, what guys and girls actually want from each other, is it more being about the good guy vs being slick However the movie comes off as unoriginal it still has that celebration of teenage insecurities No high bar for a film like this but it does its job enough to check the list of sex comedies
