There are many, many amusing scenes of teenage summer camp life as portrayed by actors who are a decade (or more) removed from actually being teenagers. An incredibly star-studded cast all have great fun with silly tropes from teen movies. Paul Rudd is hilarious as a hot teenage boy.*
Cost: free from library
Where watched: at home with Olivia, who recommended it.
*He was 32 when this was filmed.
(Also! Vinnie VanLowe is in this! Vinnie sighting!)

I know I've seen this movie but I don't remember a single thing about it, other than that Janeane Garofalo is in it. I should maybe watch it again because it has a lot of actors I like, including Ken Marino (Vinnie Van Lowe), whom I've loved since his days with "The State."
ReplyDeleteI was amazed at the number of now famous actors in this movie. Bradly Cooper is in it, speaking of gay male sex scenes.
ReplyDeleteBut Paul Rudd has a scene where he totally does the adolescent boy I-don't-want-to-clean-up-the-mess-I-made. And I will remember that scene for a long time.
Vinnie! Oh boy humor. And glad you enjoyed!
