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...

It has its rewards, most notably a likable trio of teen characters - and a couple of wild-card sidekicks - who are given room to carve out personalities of their own.
Original Score: 2.5/4

Likeable enough, and even amusing for stretches, but ultimately too generic for a recommendation. [Blu-ray]

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.

Little has changed since the heyday of John Hughes: nerdy hero on a mission to get laid, red sports car, bespectacled BFF- check, check, check.

Although the Hughes tone in the first half slowly gives way to more predictable frattish comedy, alongside Superbad Sex Drive is one of the funniest American high school comedies in ages.

It's crushingly generic stuff - a combination of gross-out gags and clammy sentiment - but Seth Green's cameo as a sardonic Amish car mechanic has its moments.

Duke has good scenes as Lance, but this is a rental, rather than a go-see.

It's a keenly enjoyable celebration of teenage insecurity and - for hairy-handed teenage hordes - offers the first chance to see Amish breasts since Harrison Ford clocked Kelly McGillis in in Witness.

Think of it as American Pie for a post-Apatow world: crude, yes, but with its heart exactly where it should be.

Too many of the gags aren't funny, the tone is depressingly sexist, and the characters won't make sense - even to teenagers.

It's as crude, tasteless and offensive as all the above suggests, although it comes with a smattering of medium-sized laughs, making it a trip just about worth taking if you're a hormone-pumped adolescent.

If you have an insatiable urge to laugh this weekend - this is your cure.

Neither film wins a prize for visual style. Each deserves one for clever gags and zanily zig-zagging dialogue.
January 9, 2009
It is played with gusto and each of the characters avoids stereotype. It is also genuinely funny at least half of the time. The other half is a bit prurient in a style with which we are all too familiar now.
Original Score: 3/5
January 9, 2009
Likeable, frequently hilarious teen comedy that's like an updated version of The Sure Thing, crossed with Road Trip and American Pie.
