The Pool Boys

"If you need anything you call your cousin Roger and I'll hook you up. I never would have said that if I thought he was gonna take me seriously." After graduating from high school Alex needs help with his scholarship. When is internship goes bad he calls his cousin Roger (Lillard) for help. When Roger's job turns out to be less then advertised he is unsure of what to do, then he meets Laura (LeFevre) and they all come up with an idea. Everyonce in a while I enjoy the occasional low-brow comedy. This one is very comparable to "Girl Next Door" in the subject matter. This one involves the kids making money by opening a brothel instead of a porn movie. The cast is actually comprised of some pretty big names and is entertaining and funny throughout. When you watch don't expect an Oscar type movie, but this is actually one of the funnier "boobie" movies that have come out in awhile. Overall, a funny and entertaining way to spend an hour and a half. I give it a B (for boobies...ha ha)

Forgive me, I'm not going to go into too much detail (this film has already taken too much of my life) but, please trust me when I say... Do not watch this movie. Bar Adam Sandlers "Over board", this is the single worst movie I have ever seen... Honestly, ever.

If you are a 14 year old boy, please ignore the above... Dude, it's got tits... Although seriously, try spankwire - take advantage of the modern age. I had to cope with old copies of Razzle when I was your age, you debauched little bastards.

If you do decide to watch it, don't tell me I didn't warn you.

Peace out

I really like Matthew Lillard. He's the kind of actor that just gets by. Nothing is really extraordinary. He just does his job in pretty cool movies.

This is a good one. There's money, women, sex, and all the above. My favorite part is the slacker aspect of it. I also like how the main character re-evaluated his life at the end, and decides to go back to school to pursue a real career.

It was a decent effort. I like movies like this.

Watch it if you want.

I heard there is a release date for this film for Sept. 30, 2011, but I had a chance to see it at a screening already. I will admit I went with much trepidation, but by the time the film was done, I had a good time for two hours. This is definitely a genre film, in the vein of "Animal House," "Risky Business," and "American Pie," and even some Night Shift," thrown in. But every film falls into some kind of story structure, and "The Pool Boys" is no different.

This film is good-natured and is meant to be a feel-good film. Matthew Lillard and Rachelle Lefevre are quite good, actually making you care about their characters, and John Billingsley is a hoot as the Dean everyone wished they had. The party that wraps things up, is hilarious and worth the price of admission.

This film is what it is and doesn't pretend to be anything more, and it succeeds admirably. The film is never mean or hateful to its own characters. Enjoyable.

This movie is good entertainment, but it doesn't really bring about many laughs.

I was expecting something maybe in the likes of the American Pie movies or such, given the title of the this particular movie and the fact that it was labeled as a comedy.

The story was adequate, but the acting was good. For me, this movie failed to make me laugh, though it was basically funny throughout the movie, just not to the point where you laugh. It drew forth a couple of smiles, that was about it.

Despite the failure to make me laugh, I still found the movie to be good entertainment. I think this movie is perhaps one such movie that is best watched while nurturing a hang-over.
