Not Cool

Shane needs to face the music for all he's done wrong, instead of getting a constant hall pass because he's made so many of these awful shows like this,and he knows people like Susan Wojycki(sp.) We in the industry have known or had a good idea of the perversion that he's been up to for a long time,we've even tried to get him ousted,but we were told he has too many subs to remove.... I guess that makes him God, he can do whatever he wants... Many things are still accusations,and he's still innocent until proven guilty, but he thinks he's SO UNTOUCHABLE that he constantly videotaped himself doing stupid stuff, like how he- along with his girlfriend - graphically & demonstratively taught his 12yo niece about sex, while using a stuffed "Peeps" bunny 's ears as a woman's legs!!! These are shock ing and hard to watch, every day more and more videos just like this are coming to light! Shane needs to go to jail, there they don't take kindly to people who've messed with kids! *Cue Chris Hanson!*

I was expecting to like this movie going in because I happen to think that Shane Dawson has some talent as a comedian. My opinion has severely dropped after this movie.

Let me start with the comedy. Most of the dialogue is either cringey or uninspired and the jokes that are supposed to make me laugh because they are gross and random don't work because there is no sense of comedic timing or pacing for each joke. Each joke comes out awkward and forced and most comedies have jokes that tie in to the story but a lot of these jokes are not incorporated very well.

The plot is very weak and cliché in a lot of places. The two main leads have to have a fight to propel the third act and you know they are going to end up together somehow because "true love". The screenplay does nothing to help me connect with any of the characters on the screen and most of the characters are deplorable souless beings. We could've at least gotten some funny jokes with the characters from Shane's youtube channel but he decides that these boring and cookie cutter characters are enough to propel the story.

The acting is awful but I can feel that Shane is trying in some places but most of the actors need to take some acting lessons.

This movie had a horrible sense of pace and the direction is equally awful. The music is some of the most shitty teen melodramatic music I've heard.

I am sad that most people who gave this movie a 10/10 probably gave it just because it was Shane Dawson.

Shane, I don't hate you but please never do a movie ever again

I'll admit walking into this I had no idea who Shane Dawson was. And after seeing this I really don't care to know who he is. This is his directorial debut and with luck it will be his last.

Basic plot of the movie is young hot girl who has an annoying family life goes home for Thanksgiving and accidentally hits Shane Dawson with her car and they become a couple. It's pretty basic as far as plots go but that's not all you get.

Do you like screaming? There's a lot of screaming in this movie because I guess screaming is considered comedy to the people who watch Shane Dawson. Do you like unfunny stereotypes? You'll find a lot of those here from the stereotypical Indian guy to the camp gay guy who doesn't realize he's gay to the overly sexed mother who wants to make out with every boy she meets. Did I mention there's lots of screaming? Just wanted to make sure.

And lets not forget the poop jokes. Oh my, this movie is full of them. There's a homeless man who eats and drinks his own poop. That's funny right? Or the parents who are working out and the mother lets a huge wet fart just rip with a bit of an extra if you catch my drift. Yeah, poop and fart jokes are right up there on the humor scale. It goes Abbot and Costello "Who's on First". George Carlin's "Seven Words You Can't Say on Television". Then in third place poop and fart jokes. They were funny when you were 10 and you haven't grown up since.

Can I say something nice about the movie? Well it did eventually end although I'll admit I wasn't paying much attention near the end. And it didn't make me want to gouge my eyes out and drive knitting needles through my ears so I guess that's something.

But no. There are no redeeming factors about this movie. Unless you happen to be a fan of Shane Dawson and I would assume those to be 12-16 year old girls and 10-14 year old boys then give this movie a pass.

And if you are a fan, please ask him not to make any more movies.

I've never seen a movie so pointlessly crude as this one. It's almost as bad as Movie 43.

I likely would've never heard about this movie if it wasn't for one thing...

It co-stars Cherami Leigh, to anyone unaware, is a voice actress for video games and anime as well as doing a few live-action roles on occasion. And honestly, this is easily her worst role by far.

Say what you will about Lucy Heartfillia or Asuna Yuuki, at least those characters felt dignified and had some likable qualities to them.

Tori, the character Cherami plays, is just some nihilistic edgelord who's only there to make sarcastic quips and say vulgar things for meaningless shock value.

I'd talk about the story, but what story is there to tell? It's just a bunch of high schoolers screaming, cursing, talking about sexual references, making homophobic slurs, and basically going out of their way to be as vulgar as possible. There's also some random partying, and is full of gross-out.

I've never heard of Shane Dawson, but this movie really didn't make a fan. But I am a fan of Cherami Leigh, and I feel bad that she was part of such an awful movie like this.

I have nothing against vulgar humor, in fact, I'm pretty open-minded towards that kind of thing. However, what holds those kind of jokes together is context and structure, which this movie has neither.

Everything feels so jumbled together and scenes drag on for way too long or don't make any sense.

While I might understand the intention behind it, when it's not shoving vulgar jokes down my throat, portraying the awkwardness of teenagers and stuff, that's been a thing ever since the John Hughes era back in the 80's, but the difference there is that they didn't cram in vulgar jokes just to pad the runtime or sound edgy.

This movie doesn't really seem to grasp the concept of comedy and as a result is on par with the likes of Ghostbusters 2016 and the Paul Blart: Mall Cop movies.

Bottom line, it's something I wouldn't recommend at all.

I'm surprised to see such high ratings for this movie. But when I read the reviews from people who gave the movie 9 and 10 stars, it became obvious that they were big fans of Dawson who were more interested in propping up the film rather than review it.

. SO to get a non-fan review To me, the movie was one of the worst I have seen in a long time. Was there a plot? The movie seemed to drag on, with a couple of funny scenes throughout--a couple.

I was most offended and turned off by Shane's treatment of ethnic minorities / people of color in the film: The African-American homeless man (and two other cartoonish Black characters) was INSULTING, not funny; the stereotype of the Latina woman was insulting, not funny--unless you're a bigot; the stereotype of the Indian character was insulting, not funny. The thing that made it even worse for me was that the movie would have played the same had these characters not been played as their negative stereotypes.

It was almost like 2 movies: the beginning was very silly; the middle was simply silly; and the ending was not bad.I will say, however, that the female lead character has talent and was the best part of the film. As for the lead male characters, I had a hard time believing that either of them was into women. Whether or not they are in real life is not the issue, but it made their relationships with the female characters feel forced. Maybe it was their poor acting.
