Banging Lanie

Better than i excepted i thought i was gonna watch a campy movie but turned and worse than i excepted. This the movie which is really really bad but u still like to watch it.

I'm not a big rom-com sort of guy but... I have to say. I really enjoyed this film, a lot!! I loved the female lead actress. She was so good! It was refreshing to get a female viewpoint in managing sexuality. I liked the story and the director did a terrific job in telling the story along with maintaining a good pace. I never found myself drifting off or wanting to get a snack in the kitchen. So a thumbs up from me on the one.

Allison Powell performs a triple threat here, writing/directing and acting playing the lead as the socially awkward but highly intelligent teen Lanie, who is about to explore the brave new world of sexual teen awakening. Unlike the typical teen comedies where everything is played strictly for laughs. Banging Lanie is much more honest and realistic than perhaps the title suggests and the underlying authenticity is what separates it from the pack providing a much richer story that is well worth anyones time. Great film.

"Banging Lanie" is just the type of movie we need right now. It is a lighthearted coming of age movie about a girl (the title character Lanie) who decides she wants to lose her virginity to the boy of her dreams.

The movie is equal parts fun and awkward and reminds me of the light hearted coming of age romantic comedies we used to get in the 90s. If you are looking to relax and check out an enjoyable movie, I recommend giving this a chance.

I pulled this from Rotten Tomatoes because I agree...

When the edgiest thing about your teen sex comedy is the title, the best you can offer in praise is "that's a nice first effort."
