Rating: PG-13
Movie Release Date: February 20, 2009
DVD Release Date: June 9, 2009
Plot 411: Two football players ditch training camp to attend cheer camp instead.
Review: This movie is definitely not groundbreaking in either plot or genre, but it did have a couple of good laughs. Nicholas D'Agosto plays Shawn and Eric Christian Olsen plays Nick, two jocks whose goal in life is to hook up with as many girls as possible. When Nick suggests they go to cheerleader camp, the boys think they've hit the jackpot. They hope to seduce all three hundred girls during the three-week camp and continue on their way. What they don't plan for is Carly (Sarah Roemer), the head cheerleader who actually has some morals and brains. She intrigues Shawn because of her obvious distaste for all that he stands for. Nick, on the other hand, is still playing the field and even tries to come on to the cheer coach (Molly Sims). The rest of the movie is exactly what you think it is - young things prancing around in near nakedness and piercing, rhythmic cheering. The movie was actually better than I thought it'd be, but I didn't really have high standards for it anyway. It's a somewhat irreverent teen comedy with good looking people and a few gay male cheerleaders thrown into the mix. It's an interesting addition to the cheerleader genre.
Watch It: If you think you'll like a cross between American Pie and Bring It On.
Skip It: If you've got high quality film standards.
