Good Kids

An enjoyable teen comedy similar to American Pie. I expect from these movies only a portion of fun and a triple combo (party, drugs, sex) and I think Good Kids delivers in this respect. A story about four nerds who are graduating high school and want to experience their first and last high school party with some of that "relief". The main character has a decent run after the first notch and I was quite envious of his role as a tennis coach, not many people are really that lucky. Good choice for those who want to switch off and and nostalgically reminisce about the old days. 75% (09.03.2017)

Good Kids is yet another in a long line of generic American high school/college comedies that has nothing to surprise or even entertain with, which is a bit of a problem given the genre. Another problem is related to Nicholas Braun, who I found incredibly unlikeable – as his character Andy. The premise may have looked funny on paper, but the actual execution is rather lackluster.

Surprisingly not as underwhelming as I’d expected. I knew it would be simple and predictable, but I didn't expect I’d have so many laughs. I've seen Bad Moms and The DUFF in the last two days, and they were much worse. A decent average with Zoey Deutch as a bonus. (21.11.2016)

A pretty good teen comedy, which again is based on the classic premise of young people finally wanting to get laid. It's not much of a surprise that it's nerds again who have a series of interesting experiences ahead of them. Even though it's from the producers of American Pie, it is definitely not as good, but there are a few pretty good scenes. (06.11.2016)
