What possessed them to translate this title to "See You in You Tube" is beyond me. I guess they figured just by putting You Tube in the title, they would attract viewers. You Tube comes into play about 15 minutes before the film ends and is not that important to the story. I'm not even sure if the people who released the film on DVD watched the movie before releasing it. The description on the OFFICIAL Region 3 release is not what the movie is about. It's almost like they had a script and did a bunch of press releases. Then they changed their minds, rewrote most of the film, and no one cared to notice. So what's it about? The main gist of the story is two friends that have been very competitive since they were young. In school and other competitions, they are at each others throats. Outside of that, they are still best friends. They both end up attending a scam video class because they think the guy is attractive. There is an odd exchange between both girls separately and the main guy at the beginning that is never really touched on again. Did they recognize him? I suppose it doesn't matter. Onward with the plot... The scammer is trying to raise money to pay the doctor bill for his sick girlfriend. He decides to get the girls to make two teams and do ridiculous things to win this competition. His goal is to make it into a film, post it up and get noticed for it so he can make money in the film industry. The bulk of the film is all the antics the teams are put up to. Some of them are quite funny and even cringe worthy. **MINOR SPOILER** The scenes where the guys have to try to do normal things while dressed up as a robber are HILARIOUS. **END SPOILER** Of course there are ridiculous amounts of eye candy. These gals give the Twins a serious run for their money on the extreme cuteness factor. The acting is typical for this type of movie.

I can't imagine anyone going into a movie called "See You in You Tube" with very high expectations. I think most viewers will be surprised. It's certainly not a great film, but more entertaining than most in this genre. Enjoying silly Asian films in general will help you get some more mileage out of this film. Give it a shot if you stumble across it.

I think I am scoring this movie a tad too high by giving it a 3 but no movie with the Twins in it, no matter how atrocious or how small their part is, will ever get less than a 3. I can't do it. They do, of course, have the greatest scenes from the film. There is only one or two jokes that actually work in the film so do not expect to laugh much. Just look forward to the 5 minutes of screen time you will get from Charlene and Gillian. The rest is just makes no sense and none of the 36 plot holes are filled...ever. What do you expect from the EEG though? A masterpiece? It will never happen. Just hope they keep putting the Twins in films no matter how bad.

And by Journey I mean the band. Yes this movie about Coast Guard divers plays Journey's hit "Open Arms" 3 times! If that weren't enough amazement, the score for this film is literally the same song for EVERY scene. I could hum along about 30 minutes into the film every time the score kicked in. Those were my observations. It was so funny and annoying that it kind of took away from the seriousness of the film and made me enjoy it less. It's not a bad film, and I would even say that it is worth seeing but I wouldn't go to any lengths to seek it out (as it is not available in the US yet). As I have read, it has been turned into a TV show in Japan and that makes sense because the whole 120 minutes seemed like a pilot for TV show.
