Miss Março: A Garota da Capa

Enjoyable adult comedy but more suitable for a video distribution than a nationwide release. As in all comedies of this genre, some of the jokes are lame, some are stretched and some are quite funny. Miss March has all of the three characteristics but to somewhat of an equal degree which kind of makes it lesser fun than what it could have been. But it does have somewhat of a story line going for it and Trevor Moore was enjoyable, although he reminded me of Matthew Lillard throughout the movie. Rent it out on video and get together a group of friends, preferably students, to set the atmosphere, and you (and this movie) will be all the more merrier. 5/10.

I think that this movie is a perfect example of the weaknesses of IMDb. You get too many people of the wrong mindset reviewing this movie. Being a huge fan of Youtube's "The Whitest Kids U' Know", I found the humour in this movie spot on. It is MEANT to be completely over the top (with some real cringy bits). Its just what they do, and to be honest, not many could do it better.

Yes, this film may not deserve a reputation for anything other than just another Teen movie, but in my books its darn good, and more than anything else, it made me feel a lot happier inside. Is that a bad thing?

Basically, if you are someone who is going to watch this movie without being able to handle sick, crude jokes, then why review it? it isn't for you. That's quite simple.

So in the words of Tucker himself, I would rate this film "A perfect seven".

Critics tended to pan this movie. While I'll admit that the movie tended to lean towards gross and raunchy humor at times (especially the sex scenes, the "flasher" scenes, and the lesbian car driver characters) and that it didn't seem to be fit for all tastes or aiming for being a classic, I still enjoyed the movie and thought it was truly hilarious. What else can you expect from a movie that centers around Playboy magazine? My favorite scenes were with Molly Stanton chasing after the best friend after, during a pole dance scene, he instigated her into having a seizure with strobe lights and tried to pry her off of him by stabbing her in the face with a fork. Her chasing after him and getting the fire department to do the same were, in my opinion, the funniest scenes. I also liked the road trip scenes and Tucker's meeting with Hugh Heffner. You might like this movie. It really depends on your taste and "material threshold." Give it a try if you're in the right mood.

** 1/2 out of ****

Eugene Bell (Zach Cregger) and Tucker Cleigh (Trevor Moore) have been best friends since they were children. Tucker has always had sexual attraction for women having his life driven by sex while Eugene and his sweetheart Cindi Whitehall (Raquel Alessi) do not have sexual intercourse waiting for their marriage. However on the day of their prom, Cindi decides that they should have sex. After the prom, they go to a party and Tucker convinces the nervous Eugene to drink a couple of drinks. Eugene is not used to drink and becomes dizzy, falling in the basement. Four years later, Eugene awakens from a coma and finds that Tucker is the only one that waited for him, since his father traveled abroad and his girlfriend has moved to another city. Further, Tucker is living with the schoolmate Candace (Molly Stanton) and he has atrophy of his muscles and incontinence. Soon they discover that Cindi is the centerfold of the March edition of Playboy magazine and she will be at Hugh Hefner's mansion in the anniversary party. Tucker has a serious situation with Candance and he needs to flee from her brother, who is a fireman. He takes Eugene with him and drives to the mansion to meet Cindi in a road trip full of incidents and confusions.

"Miss March" is among the most moronic and brainless films ever produced and certainly hated by professional critics. The story is politically incorrect since the very beginning. However if the viewer shutdown his brain and watch the movie, he or she will certainly laugh a lot. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Miss Março: A Garota da Capa" ("Miss March: The Girl on the Cover")

I'd give this a 2 or 3 excepting that is has 5 or 6 absolutely laugh out loud and that's more than most movies. None of this is rocket science: two guys head for the Playboy Mansion to find an ex-girlfriend and have adventures on the way. It's all very silly indeed - but if you imagine you're aged 12 - 14 or are 12 - 14 then this is a not bad guilty pleasure. Awful in places, and in others a huge chuckle fest it really is not anyone's idea of a great movie... but darn, the laugh out loud moments are some of the funniest I've seen all year... and had been laughing when i remembered them afterward....
