    Raunchy 90's-style sex comedy

    "American Pie" meets "Van Wilder" with "Porky's" in its soul. They don't make 'em this irreverent anymore. Sex comedies today are often dark and preachy, but "The Bet" manages to capture the spirit of an 80's sex comedy with the heart of a 90's teen comedy. It's a throwback, yes, but it brings jokes that they couldn't dream of getting away with 20 years ago. With solid performances by Alex Klein and Amanda Clayton and great playing-against-type by legendary professional wrestlers Jake "The Snake" Roberts, Diamond Dallas Page and the final on-screen performance of Rowdy Roddy Piper. "The Bet" is the perfect movie to watch on a Saturday afternoon and the worst movie to watch with your parents.

    A great American Pie throwback!

    I thought it would be pretty cheesy, but turned out to be very well thought-out and a cast well- picked.

    They did a great job nailing stereotypes and were thorough with the plot of the movie. An easy movie to watch and understand!

    Most of it was shot in Ventura CA, loved the small-town vibes. really helped contribute to the post- high school feel of the movie and was very relatable.

    Less is more is a great way to describe this movie too. They cut to the punch and chase of each scene, did not over-complicate things and did a great job. I really enjoyed it!!!

    I highly recommend it for anyone looking for the 2016 American Pie tribute. Good memories, great throwback.

    Funny, very easy watch, Comedy & Wrestling Fans will Love it!!

    Denton Baker gets given a bet and has to hook up with every girl he had a crush on from 1st to 12th grade. The story follows Denton over the summer to see him try & complete the bet.

    I heard about this movie a couple of years ago through the writers of the movie Chris & Aaron. Being a huge wrestling fan & hearing that DDP, Tommy Dreamer, Jake Roberts & Roddy Piper would be in a movie instantly caught my attention. There are also cameos from Chuck D & Dian Bachar ( Squeek from Baseketball ) too.

    10 stars, definitely worth a watch & definitely your time.

    PS. Stick around until the end of the movie & catch a photo of Roddy Piper with Aaron & Chris

    Good Odds on The Bet

    A friend of mine told me about this one giving me a head's up about the content, so I knew going in it was going to be raunchy, so I watched with an open mind. I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed watching The Bet.

    I laughed, I blushed, I rolled my eyes shaking my head (boys will be boys). I warn that it is not for the weak of heart or for hard-core politically correct tight asses.

    I also enjoyed the cameo appearances and the cast as a whole, good chemistry between the actors. I found myself rooting for the hero (though officially offended as a female - wink wink).

    ranks up there with the stupidest movie ever

    really if you waste your time watching this movie, it has decent actors, but it's so homophobic & degrading to people.. not just women... it would take a brain dead person to actually like this movie... i've watched 1:05 of the 1:28 minutes and i'm turning it off. It says i have to write a longer review and i've pretty much covered the whole movie so far... the movie is just as stupid as the plot. to the casting director, producer, actors, i give you credit for doing your best to make a horrible movie worth watching. You have to have talent to do that. To the writer... you should go get a job at burger king if you spent more than 10 minutes on the writing of this awful flick.

    • Crazy credits
      Near the end of the closing credits is the standard disclaimer, ""Any similarities or resemblance to actual events, actual persons, living or dead, or to actual films is purely coincidental" - but it's immediately followed by "That said, it would be bad ass if a guy tried to hook up with every girl he had a crush on growing up."
