This movie will either give you huge nostalgia for those care free house parties or sad regret that you never got to experience a party like this in your 20's.

I know when to appreciate a movie with real meaning, and this is not the case. If you take this movie on face value - a humorous pure popcorn movie with no hidden meanings to teach you the values of life, it's pretty good. I don't see why it's getting bashed because for what it is, it was entertaining and funny. Before you go in to see this movie ask yourself what exactly you want to get out of it, if it's 1 hour and 20 minutes of mindless entertainment, then you're set. If, however you feel Project X will leave you pondering life and everything around you, this movie is not for you. Don't listen to the old people on here who knew what they were getting themselves into and still paid and saw the movie only to turn around and rate it poorly because it was below whatever expectations they have for a party movie...

Project X is a film that, on paper, does not appeal to me at all. I predicted it to be a low budget film with some unmemorable gags and a poor plot. I was wrong. It was a surprisingly good film. The plot did, as anticipated, contain several holes and you couldn't help thinking "surely that wouldn't have happened" but after all it was based on a true story.

The film is based on some unpopular high school students, (Thomas, Costa and JB) who throw a party when one of their parents goes away for the weekend and it quickly escalates out of control. The film is seemingly shot by their friend Dex on a portable camera and some other videos in a documentary style sequence. There is a good balance of dialogue, montages of general party mayhem and Thomas completely stressing out and the films great for watching with a few of the lads.

The three of us who watched it were laughing consistently throughout the film and many of the characters were very relatable. Overall (despite being extremely far-fetched) the film was relatable, although I was hoping for a bit more development on the morning after the party.

Don't watch this film if you're looking for artistic credit, watch it to be entertained. This wouldn't have been a film I would have picked out myself but after watching it I would recommend it, although not one to watch with the family.

This film tells the story of a high school party turning out of control.

There are a lot of films about high school party, but this one is probably is the craziest. The events escalate gradually to the point of being outrageous, which is what makes the film very entertaining. What is more, is that the story is almost believable!

like many have said before me, if you are going into this movie expecting some potential Oscar material you will be sadly disappointed. The best way to approach this movie is to not expect anything at all but a bit of over the top entertainment provided by an out of control high school party. If you are too old to remember the days when you were in high school and attended a party that seemed to get a little bit crazy, I would not watch this movie. I think you need to have had some kind of crazy party experience in the past in order to take that event in your mind and multiply it by 100 times. But you won't HAVE to create that scenario in your head, because that is exactly what project X does for you.

There really is not much of a story. But that being said, there are some theatrical elements that will set up for scenes later in the movie. So in that respect there is a sort of a story line and a decent attempt at unfolding events.

The characters aren't THAT bad. There is some character establishment although they may not be entirely likable. While they do establish the characters, there is not much development. Right from the beginning of the movie you get a good sense of the characters and that is what you can expect the whole movie. I didn't think the secondary characters are too horrible either. The 12 year old security guards, an angry midget and the angry drug dealer all create for some great mind numbing entertainment.

Basically if you are over the age of 35 MAX, depending how young hearted you are. Or if you can't recall a crazy high school or college party experience to relate to, I would not recommend this movie. People are going to talk trash on this movie, because they were expecting something more upon going to see this. DON'T! Some people ask a lot out of movies. They need plot twists and turns surprises and thrills. This movie does contain some of that but in a dumbed down, mind numbing fashion. So don't expect anything other than some wild, over-the-top, epic party experience of the century and you should be OK.

That is a really fun movie. So entertaining, so amusing. Yes, it might have some clichés, yes, the characters might not be analyzed in the deepest way, yes, there might be not much of a moral message, yes, some humor might not be super original, yes, it might not be completely realistic. But the movie never supposed to be any of this. If you are looking for super artistic- clever-Oscar film, you are in the wrong place. But if you are looking for great entertainment, simple laughs and easy night with friends- that stuff is for you. Makes you recall all the crazy parties you have been through )))). Whatever some people say, the 'making the movie' style of the film looks and fits great into the concept of the film. It really feels natural since I remember myself to film parties like that (well, not entirely like that, but still). Watch it, especially if you are young, watch it. It is real FUN!!!

I love all the dialogue so much, comedy is great, soundtrack is awesome and entertainment is value perfect! I'm probably one of very few to give Project X a 10! Not much else to say except such a fun flick.

Depending on which age group you fall in will determine your enjoyment for Project X. Project X does so many fundamental things wrong such as sub par acting and glaring plot holes. However, for a film that on paper seems absolutely terrible I could not stop laughing and really enjoying this movie.

Project X isn't so much hilarious as it is entertaining. This movie will really appeal those who can relate to the plot somewhat. As an 18 year old that has thrown parties when my parents were away the film struck a chord with me. I could feel the main character Thomas's anxiety when he realized he had no control over his house and that's why I feel many teenagers and even those in their early 20's would really relate to this film.

Project X might not be worth 10 dollars to see it in the movie theater but if you go with a good group of friends the 10 dollar ticket will seem more than worth it. I really enjoyed the film for personal reasons but I can see a lot of movie goers detesting it. 6/10

This movie tells the story of 3 teen boys, all with completely different personalities, who decide to throw a fairly large birthday bash, which in the end goes totally out of hand. The movie is based on the real life story about a boy named Corey Delaney who threw a huge party that involved the whole street. The movie has worried several people due to the fact that teenagers are represented in a very negative way. Reports of imitations of the Project X party have also been in the news.

I think everyone is overreacting personally but that's just me. This movie is so much fun, and as much as it makes me want to go to a party, I would never act so ridiculously as portrayed in Project X. The movie can be compared to American Pie, Super bad etc with it's really American humour and classic story line. It features filthy comedy, naked teens, scenes of drug use and alcohol consumption and is a non-stop thrill ride. It will leave you gritting your teeth and covering your eyes due to it's absurd stunts and the cringe-worthy events in it.

It has a great soundtrack that makes you wanna get up and dance too! However, the reason why I haven't rated it a ten is because towards the end, it becomes a bit TOO dramatic and silly. But overall, it's fun, sexy, funny, pulse racing & definitely memorable. Just like in Super bad, you emphasize with each character and each one is completely different to the other. If you like Super bad/American Pie, you'll love this :)

Project X directed by Nima Nourizadeh is a splendid movie.

I do not know why many of the people have given it bad ratings saying that its boring.

People,just forget those reviews and watch the movie!Its fantastic! Story:- Three seemingly anonymous high school seniors (Thomas Mann,Oliver Cooper and Jonathan Daniel Brown) attempt to finally make a name for themselves. Their idea is innocent enough - let's throw a party that no one will forget, and have a camera there, to document history in the making. But nothing could prepare them for this party. Word spreads quickly as dreams are ruined, records are blemished and legends are born.

The movie slacks a bit in the middle but still is entertaining.

The direction is very good.

The movie's dialogs are good.

Performances:- The 3 boys Thomas Mann,Oliver Cooper and Jonathan Daniel Brown are excellent in their respective roles.

All in all,Project X is an entertaining movie.I am going to give a seven on ten for Project X.Don't mind the reviews,just watch the movie!

great movie, very exciting fun and entertaining. If you wanna watch a movie that will " move you" in an emotional way

or "teach u right from wrong" then this isn't the movie for u.

But if Your looking for laugh out loud jokes

or just crazy mayhem and sexy girls (ESPECIALLY Alexis Knapp who plays Alexis) then this is definitely the movie for u! Its really a movie to just kick back and relax and watch.

Rather than to analyze cause its just some kids having fun for GOD sakes!!!

So stop taking the movie so seriously and enjoy it !!!!!!!!

We all know why they made this movie. You pay these kids next to nothing. And you promote it as a party movie. It's a classic money making move. The surprise here is that this was actually a pretty good movie. The kids aren't necessarily that likable or great actors. All of it is mostly recycled old teen movie parts. But it's the energy that so great. The utterly over the top chaos in this movie is just too much fun to ignore. The flamethrower does go too far. But it's too late to do any major damage. It just adds to the general chaos of this movie. Miles Teller is the biggest name to come out of this wild ride.

Didn't get bored at a single scene. Every scene was fun in it. It don't know how it's so unknown and not so famous movie. I didn't expected at all that this movie will be so much fun.

Of course this is not a great movie but that is more so because you can't even really call this a movie in the first place.

It's not necessarily following a story, or trying to build its characters. It's simply being one very straightforward movie, that delivers on what it promises. In that regard I also can't really see how someone can dislike this movie. It never pretended to be something that it wasn't and I liked the movie for that.

In the days that found-footage movies are getting really popular, it is fun to see movies coming up with new and original, great stuff. This movie entirely looks like it got shot with cell phones (which was also true for most part, by the way), which gets you right in the middle of things and gives you the feeling you are really participating in its wild, crazy party.

And this is really all the movie has to it really; its wild and crazy party. And I must say, it's all pretty fun to watch and to see how things slowly but steadily are getting more and more worse and just totally insane. The movie constantly keeps coming up with more crazy stuff throughout, which makes this never a boring watch, or a movie that constantly keeps repeating itself. It helps of course that the movie is a very short one.

Who knows, maybe it would had been a better thing if we actually got to care about, or got to know any of the characters but really, this didn't took anything away from the movie for me. It's just clearly one not to take very seriously (or to try at home) and a movie you should simple take and enjoy for what it is.

Especially teenagers shall really love this movie.

Adrenaline-pumping, heart-thumping, nerve-racking, spine-chilling - you will experience totality in this movie wrongly called as the Project X.

Debut cast is epic and appreciate the producers for this noble idea. Animal House is surely reincarnated, so is the usual teenage comedy genre. Todd Phillips is a maverick when it comes to on the road, off the road movies with Hangover & Due Date in his credit, Project X is just another feather in his hat. Screenplay is perfect.

Elements, except that of drug were totally binding and each event gives you more stuffs to enjoy and speculate what might happen next. Lots of teenage fun, naked bodies, madness and total anarchy is what the lead character Thomas's house is full of. Even the police are intimidated at one point. Such a ridiculously enthralling movie, Project X is recommended to everyone out there - young & old!

WATCH OUT FOR: The beat soundtrack!

Can be watched with a typical Indian family? NO

Language: Yes | Sex: Strong | Nudity: Very Strong | Drugs: Strong | Alcohol: Strong | Gore: No | Violence: Yes | Foreplay: Strong | Mouth- Kiss: Strong

Fun, party movie. I'm not sure what all the butt hurt, low rating people were expecting. If you get offended by horny teenagers, alcohol and drug use, you should probably skip this movie. It's a movie! Of course it's not real, or intended to have some deep meaning that you will think about when you are done watching it. Also, if you are easily offended by words, skip this, and go watch something else.
