Review: Ewan McDonald
Here's some clues about who this one's going to appeal to: 1, it features Tom Green, the MTV comedian who's the new Mr Drew Barrymore; 2, the cast includes Seann William Scott, of American Pie; 3, the cast also includes Rachel Blanchard of TV's Clueless.
Actually they could have called this Clothesless, since that's what the young actresses are required to do every five minutes or so; or American Pie II, since it bears a strong resemblance to that pinnacle of moviemaking.
Story follows a frat brat, Josh (Breckin Meyer), who has been dating Tiffany (Blanchard) since high school. Now he's a student in New York and she has decided she needs room to grow and she enrols at a Texas college. They keep in touch by phone but sometimes she doesn't answer. Meanwhile Josh has been flirting with Beth (Amy Smart) and one night she seduces him and they make a video of themselves having sex.
Josh has made a nice video to send to Tiffany but you know what happens, so Josh and his friends have to make an emergency road trip to Texas to retrieve the vid before Tiff can see it.
Josh borrows a car from his geeky friend Kyle (DJ Qualls) and takes along his friends Rubin (Paulo Costanzo) and E. L. (Scott). They have the usual adventures along the way and I'm not going to give away the ending because there will be some people who might actually watch this movie long enough to want to find out for themselves.
