Lisa Younger, Jeneta St. Clair, and Melissa Johnston in Barely Legal (2011)

Review by mickdansforth

Barely Legal

10/10

Quite probably the best Teen Sex Comedy not made by a major studio

Watched this on the Tubi streaming service. Free w/ ads. There was one ad, for a toothbrush, and it preceded a scene involving an electric toothbrush. Also Tubi didn't seem to edit this for content or anything.

I recently watched parts of Bikini Valley Car Wash on Prime Video and so went looking for a batter example of the genre. BVCW is about 25% bikini girls storyline and 75% creepy dudes doing bad observational humor to stretch the run time to make it a feature film.

The thing about Barely Legal is that it is a full fledged movie. A script, production values, sets, props, color correction and everything you expect from a theatrically released film.

If you are of the "Plot Holes = Bad Movie" set, then you could obviously make a whole "Honest Trailer" or Cinema Sin" video on the movie.

3 best friends live in a huge McMansion alone together, w/ no obvious source of income. And they all three turn 18 on the same day. And while two of them are sexually active, all three of them consider themselves virgins because none of them have had penis in vagina sex. And they all eventually decide to lose their virginity at their birthday party.

So the story is ridiculous and contrived, but absolutely works for the point of making the movie. And the dialog works in universe. The question is never, "why would anyone say that?", and more the choices characters make in the way they choose their lives.

Some of the jokes land and are actually funny.

Andre Meadows, of the Black Nerd Comedy Youtube channel is in this. He and Lee Doud are obnoxious party goers. Apparently the people at Asylum liked him enough to bring him back for their next sex comedy, Celebrity Sex Tape (2012).

It really feels like everyone involved with the production was just really happy to be working on the project.

If you are looking to watch this type of movies, you could do far far worse than these series of sex comedies from The Asylum 2009-2014.

The Asylum Sex Comedies: 18-Year-Old Virgin (2009) Sex Pot (2009) #1 Cheerleader Camp (2010) Milf (2010) Barely Legal (2011) Celebrity Sex Tape (2012) Bikini Spring Break (2012) Alpha House (2014) Asian School Girls (2014) Bachelor Night (2014)
