Rush Night

The movie lacks pretty much everything a movie should have. The best thing about it is, that it shows the bloopers at the end, which are really funny. Except for that the story goes like this: two geeky guys want to join a fraternity and get chicks. Unfortunately, the only thing they get is humiliation, for starters. As main dish, though, they get the girls. The whole movie looks like it was shot with a hand-held cam (prolly VHS) and the acting is not too convincing, as said, not even funny.

Further to this, the whole story has been done over and over again, and for the most part, way way better. If nothing else is on the tube, watch it, other than that, don't go there, Pucky.

I can't wait to see "Rush Night II", with the tag-line: "They're Back-And They're a Year Older". What we probably have here is a bunch of film school friends in their early thirties who decided to make a feature. But they didn't have much money and they lacked ANY adult experiences on which to base a screenplay. So they decided to make a feature length comedy about their undergraduate days. Unfortunately they also decided to be in their movie (perhaps dictated by their budget). Since the main roles are....."undergraduate college students pledging a fraternity"....the wheels fall off this thing with the first sequence. Imagine Nicollette Sheridan playing a high school girl in Lizzie McGwire and you will have a good idea just how glaring this becomes.

"Rush Night" sets a record for the most "walking and talking" scenes; and apparently they filmed (taped) them with an "unsteady-cam". The shaking camera is more entertaining than the dialogue. Directors use "walking and talking" when they can't think of an interesting way to stage a scene so there must have been about 45 minutes of script that the director (or the budget) could not properly stage.

Strangely there "is" one very funny scene where one of the overage students accidentally spears the eyeball of a coed with his pencil.
