Dean Slater: Resident Advisor

Movies about the American college experience are silly, and this raises the bar. The reality of the American college environment is unreal, and so any comedy flick on the subject is by nature exploitative. Which reminds me to write that screenplay on my very real college experience that laid the groundwork for the next 20 years of my life.

The bottom line: this is an incredibly silly movie specific to California college life. It is not particularly awful and has some poignant and well thought out comedic moments. It has, as a major theme, the abuse of social media, which, given the sorry state of American culture these days - with people sharing a meal paying more attention to their cell phones than their company - is a real concern. This B-Grade flick makes the unpopular argument that the pervasiveness of social media is excessive, and that we we need to find a balance.

Though I be just an Englishman even I can relate with the wit and humour of a gorgeous US movie such as this. Well where do I start fresh from VGHS Jimmy Wong is delightful albeit he may be the only actor except Nathalie Ramos in this movie I knew of and Nathalie Ramos is again amazing in this movie. Moving from House of Anubis which was dark(ish) albeit cheesy as anybody's business to a full out college humour the transition was seamless. It could of gone with the norm of college/teenagers coming out movies but no it went with a kick ass RA and some lines that though were cliché had a charm to them. It has also managed to add in a kendama and well any movie that introduces and addicts me to a sport like this has to be worth a watch right

While "Dean Slater: Resident Adviser" is not amongst the worst of teen comedies, then it is neither amongst the best of them.

"Dean Slater: Resident Adviser" is a fairly adequate movie. It has some good and bright moments here and there, but this is hardly the type of comedy that will have you in tears from laughing. Sure, there were moments from time to time that proved funny and broke laughs. But in overall, then the movie wasn't riding high on laughs and comedy.

The story is straight forward, easy to follow and basically what you would expect from a movie such as this.

However, what carried the movie was the gallery of characters. The characters in the movie were well-portrayed and fleshed out on the screen. But characters are, of course, almost nothing without talented actors to bring the characters to life on the screen. And I will say that the people on the cast list in "Dean Slater: Resident Adviser" were doing good jobs with their given roles.

While not a movie that will leave a lasting impression, then "Dean Slater: Resident Adviser" is good entertainment for a single watching.

It's fun and frivolous but has some unique social commentary mixed into it. I enjoyed watching it. I think there's something for most people if they give it a chance. The score of 4.3/10 is BS it's much better than that. I had the chance to finally get a smart phone, get into using it then have it break. I went back to a normal phone while it was exchanged. The thing is when I got another smart phone it was just a phone to me. This is something that should be a part of everyone's experience as it puts things in perspective. This movie is about that sort of thing. Being unplugged. Great movie.

The movie "Dean Slater: Resident Adviser" was an attention grabbing film that for sure will bring laughter. The actors in the movie did a very good job of playing their roles and getting into character. The film also included the Japanese skill toy know as the "Kendama," and the film portrayed how the Kendama can be used in different context. I found the film to be very worth watching and hysterical. The story's plot is also very well thought out. It is actually just simply amazing coming from a pro Kendama player. A calm mind is a mind that is able to conjure up genius material as such. I rate this film 10/10 but it honestly breaks the scale. EXPECT TO LAUGH. The film is very much enjoyable, so sit back and enjoy it!
