The Prankster

its full of fun and pranks.. if you like American pie, you'd adore this movie. Not only is it realistic so teenagers can relate to some of the situations ,its also hilarious ,so your guaranteed to laugh your head off.I do every time I watch it.I would recommend this movie to any person that enjoyed Fast Times at Ridgemont High which was also a great movie. Not only did I love the storyline and plot but the actors fit the characters so well, they made them all seem so realistic.Go see this movie its awesome. This is an academy award winning film, just go in ready to laugh. I thought the writing had real wit, not to mention the hidden references and one liners that any film buff will appreciate

I review this movie from the point of view of the demographic for which it was intended. My nieces and Godchildren, all under 18, loved this movie and laughed heartily. I was surprised to see the delightful effect it had on most all of the children who saw it.

That being said, this movie is a winner if you have kids in your life who are in grade school or high school. The film has some important messages for impressionable minds, and it doesn't use profanity, anti-social behavior or nudity to make its points.

I appreciate the heart this film shows and I recommend it on that basis.

On my opinion this is a good movie witch reveal best what happens when there are a few pranksters in an university. The pranksters is a group of four students who plays pranks to their dean or to some of their colleges. The storyline is very good because the movie follows the life of one of the pranksters which wants to go to the college and he have to quit the pranksters group but the pranks is part of his life and he feels natural doing this. As the title shows this movie is about some pranksters so you will aspect to a lot of pranks, I honest did like all of their pranks, it were made with taste and i laughed a lot all the movie. I hope you'll like it as much as i did.Enjoy it!

I saw this on cable, and I was hoping it was a quirky independent comedy. For a movie called "Prankster," the comedy was lacking. The dialog was outdated. I was offended by a modern movie with themes such as "girls can't be pranksters." The wardrobe was dated, from the jocks in Letter jackets to geeks in orange slip on Vans. Could this be an 80s period piece? I am not sure. Nothing seemed to confirm the date. I was shocked at how this very 80's movie could be released in 2010. I thought the retro soundtrack was a selling point. Unfortunately, generic rip offs of Vampire Weekend songs made me change the channel before the halfway mark.

You gotta love a movie that has a target audience which I would mark at 12-17 or so, YET it has enough of a message and some 'old' classic pranks to appeal to adults as well. I remember pulling a couple of these myself in middle and high school . I laughed, loved the campy style AND there are sincere messages about being yourself and trusting yourself. Why this movie isn't competing with the Hollywood stupidity released for young adults is just typical. One big super star and it might have easily entered into the fray. The acting was very believable and sincere. It isn't a movie that you have to worry your kids are going to see or purchase. Though the pranks are very funny and 'creative'...there is enough of a message to also 'grow up' and make good choices. Great first movie for the writer/director who seems to have his values in the right place.
