The last thirty minutes were like the last 30 minutes of every comedy of it's ilk that's been released in the past 30 years. Can't vouch for the rest of the movie.

Had some really funny moments in my opinion, but I just did not like the story that well and such.

It could have been better.
Jonah Hill though, I thought gave the most hilarious delivery of his lines.

There could have been some nudity, but other than that, very nice. I enjoyed it quite a bit.
7/10

Much better than I thought.
The making up a college thing sounds far fetched, but instead, it was actually believable and not too far from reality. It had some funny bits, but also some inspiration. Not a great film, but a fun one.
Grade: B.

Not wildly hilarious or anything, but a solid comedy overall.

The fat guy lets the movie not be a complete train wreck. A lot of scenes are just cringe-worthy though.

Surprisingly sharp and witty teen comedy, at least until the end. The first 2/3 are both funny and relatively smart, something sorely lacking from modern teen comedy. It derives its humour mostly through quick one-liners, rather than slapstick, keeping it fresh. However, the last half hour, especially the climax, loses steam and delves into cliché. Still, overall, an above average comedy.
