Three sentence movie reviews: Wet Hot American Summer

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!)

  1. 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."

  2. I was amazed at the number of now famous actors in this movie. Bradly Cooper is in it, speaking of gay male sex scenes.

    But 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.
