Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Whitech It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Uriah43 Having failed his bar exam twice "Matt" (Justin T. Bowler) is forced to put up with an abusive boss named "Richard" (David Lawrence) until he can finally pass in order to find another job elsewhere. So when Richard tells him to watch over his mansion for a few days Matt decides to use whatever spare time he can scrounge up to study. However, as luck would have it, Richard's son "Buck" (Kenzo Lee) and step-daughter "Leslie" (Sarah Horvath) decide to violate their father's instructions and party while he is gone. This creates all kinds of problems for Matt. Anyway, so much for the plot. Now, rather than disclose the rest of the movie and risk spoiling this film for those who haven't seen it I will just say that it had a few funny moments here and there. It also had a couple of attractive women as well. Unfortunately, the funny parts were few and far between and the eye candy wasn't sufficient to change an otherwise cheap and uninspired script. Below average.
KatManPr I can't say this was the greatest comedy I've ever seen, but it was oddly entertaining. It has a very low-budget "National Lampoon" feel to it (semi-naked people, hints of debauchery, misunderstandings and bits of hilarity), so if that is your thing, give it a shot.For what it is worth, I can totally see this becoming one of those cult hits, or at very least a favorite of the drinking game crowds. I caught it on Netflix with a couple of people who suggested that people should drink every time you hear the word "Pool" or saw it. However, I can picture this being one of those "Rocky Horror" type shows where audience members get up and say the lines against the screen-- though the audience would have to throw margarita mix rather than bread or rice.
Kevin Blake As a low budget film, sans the luxury of an A thru D list name attached, this movie looks and sounds great. The writing probably gets a little zany for some tastes but it is fun and enjoyable. The protagonist is likable and charming, and even delivers a couple of late 80's Bill Murray moments. There are a few moments when you think you know what the joke is going to be and they go in a different surprising direction. There is nudity, so this isn't for kids, but if you are the right demographic for a National Lampoon film then this is fair game. So if you want a party movie and not have to think too much, and to get some laughs along the way - check out Pool Party! 7 stars.
movieman_kev There are no laughs to be had in this sorry little 'zany' tale of Matt whom is studying for the bar exam while house-sitting for his overbearing boss and trying to keep the boss's kids and their friends from throwing a party. Lame joke follows lame joke in a vain attempt to be funny & wacky, but all the so-called 'humor' (usually gay-oriented non-jokes) misses the mark by a mile, instead turning this into an exercises in sheer will to make it to the end, which I doubt many people other than myself will do.Eye Candy: Meredith Giangrande gets topless; Sarah Horvath shows some T&A My Grade: F Where I saw it: Netflix via xbox 360
