Avis à la une
I had never heard of this movie until recently. I decided to watch it because it was shot in Newburgh and Evansville, Indiana which are located about 40 miles from where I live in Southern Illinois. Being familiar with the area was the main reason I wanted to watch this.
Jim lives a life in Hollywood. He decides to return to his hometown of Newburgh, Indiana for his twentieth class reunion at Castle High School. Jim gets to hangout with his childhood buddies and get reaquainted with the girl who got away. This movie was pretty funny. Most of the humor is pretty juvenile. What you expect from a film with Harland Williams and Nick Swardson? Again being familiar with Newburgh and Evansville probably made the film a bit more enjoyable to me since it was filmed "locally" and features Washington Square Mall and Green River Road of Evansville, Indiana.

Just watched it!
*THUMBS UP* I laughed. I cried. I farted.
Plenty of good laughs to be found in this film. Michael Rosenbaum wrote, directed, produced, and stars in this fun story about a guy going back home for his High School Class of 1994 twenty-year reunion. Great soundtrack with plenty of 80's nostalgia. His wacky adventures with his old high-school buddies are hysterical. It is a throwback to the classic 80's comedies like "Caddyshack" and "Animal House". Lots of toilet humor but hey it's not trying to be the next Oscar winner - it is just a fun raunchy romp with a madcap cast. I totally enjoyed it! Cheers!

I saw the great reviews here and, while not expecting a lot, I decided to give this a chance (especially because I like Morena Baccarin). Unfortunately, she wasn't enough to save this film. Now I see that the glowing reviews were probably written by friends of the director. That's my only explanation for how a movie with a rating under 5 can have five of its six reviews give it 10 star ratings.
The movie wasn't horrible, but not very memorable either. It didn't have many laughs (I only chuckled a few times) and didn't really have much charm either. Instead it relied on cliché characters who, while really trying to be, just weren't very funny.
It's more of a commentary on wanting to recapture the good old days than a comedy.
If you want to see a funny movie about a high school reunion, I recommend American Reunion instead. That has more memorable characters, more charm and, more importantly, much more humour.

I really did like the concept of the film. Michael Rosenbaum plays an actor unhappy with the way his life went, and when he comes back home to his high school reunion and tries to relive his glory days, which includes rekindling the magic with his high school sweet heart. It sounds like the regular formula but it's actually done more sophisticated than expected.
Much props to Rosenbaum who was able to direct and act at the same time getting a lot from his character.
The movie is filled with a few laughs, the best I feel come from a character named Ron, played by Nick Swardson who peaked in Jr. High after everyone was able to grow facial hair like he could.
Although all the characters are interesting not all the actors were. I did not feel the chemistry that would suggest these guys are friends, yet alone for 20 years. I did not feel it click.
Plus, this may be me nick picking, but the movie suggest that they are the class of 1994, yet I kept getting a late 80s vibe from the whole thing. I feel they really missed an opportunity to make fun of the 90s that could have added some much needed jokes.
Overall it was good.

If you're expecting an ordinary but overly silly romantic comedy, and not a masterpiece, this is pretty good.
As in most movies where the guy is marrying the wrong girl or the girl is marrying the wrong guy, there is one of those exciting and bizarre scenes.
After the reunion comes one of the movie's funniest scenes, which involves vomiting. No, it's not the vomiting that's so funny, but just the outrageous situations.
Morena Baccarin shows the talent that later got her a role in the respected TV series "Gotham". Her character is really likable, and she's one of the few intelligent people in the movie.
Michael Rosenbaum actually wrote and directed this, in addition to starring. My expectations of him may be a little high because of his outstanding role in "Smallville", but he does a good job here.
During Jim's commute on the 405 we are subjected for what passes for music in today's world. In a flashback there is actual music by Air Supply.
Is this fun for the whole family? Not even when cleaned up for broadcast. I hope I've provided enough hints. If not, let me say that at times every other sentence has a character's mouth blurred briefly with no sound. Skunk and his wife like S & M. One of the characters does Sharon Stone's move from "Basic Instinct". There are several scenes with nudity because of pranks or whatever.
Still, if you can handle Seth McFarlane's Fox sitcoms, you might be able to enjoy this.
Be sure and stay around for the outtakes with the closing credits!
