Kitchen Party

There isn't really a whole lot to say on this one.Other then the fact that it is unique. Teens(like me) probably would prefer Can't Hardly Wait, as it is what were used to, and its got a soundtrack and everything, but this one actually has characters that arn't just at a party they've all got stories. 8/10

I saw this movie on Superchannel when there was absolutely nothing else on. The synopsis was something like "Teenagers have a party in the kitchen when their parents aren't home". I thought, "that sounds lame, kinda like 'Can't Hardly Wait'". I watched it anyway. During the first few minutes I thought it was a little slow, and prepared myself to be bored out of my mind. Then the movie got going.

Finally, a good Canadian movie!!! I had no idea it was Canadian, until about half-way through, when I realized that none of the cast had accents!

Anyway, on to the movie itself. Such a great little film. It completely brought me back to my high school/college days. The characters were REAL - they didn't seem like they were reading scripts or trying for laughs. I didn't feel like my emotions were being fooled around with. This is an HONEST movie.

The acting was really great (I thought). Each character was very well developed.

The ONE problem (very minor) I had with this movie, was the fact that the parents of Scott and Steve were so anal about keeping their carpets perfect, yet they did NOT seem like those type of people when they were out with their friends. That part just didn't gel for me.

But, aside from that very minor set-back, I really liked this movie. I can't say enough good things about it. It was so ON. A REAL movie that actually describes the feelings that go with being a teenager, old enough to move out of the house, but STILL living with your dreaded parents. I can't recommend this movie to enough people.

After seeing this movie, I've GOTTA go rent "Suburbanites".

I was as surprised by this gem of a movie as I was by its low rating on IMDb. It's great Canadian teen flick, with the style of a Kevin Smith film. A good, low-profile cast and a simple, real storyline deliver a quality movie experience.

Probably one of the more subtle, original, realistic but no less funny flick about what happens when ultra-tight-ass parents go out to a dinner party and leave the son at home. As the title denotes, this film does involve a kitchen party, and the young actors in the film play it out with such deadpan realism that it could pass for a documentary. Accurate, timely and biting. A fine example of how to make a movie about teens alone in a house.

KITCHEN PARTY is a film about, well, a house party. You could probably figure out the basic plot points based just on that, and to go into any further detail regarding that would be a waste of time and also I don't feel like it, frankly.

This movie offers nothing new. It's the same old garbage we've seen a bunch of times. There's absolutely nothing redeeming about it, nor much in the way of real entertainment even, save for a few halfway decent jokes that would have been used better if places in an actually good script. Do not recommend.
