It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Funny tends to be in the eye of the beholder, so I won't comment beyond saying I think I maybe chuckled a couple of times.The movie's biggest problem for me was the fact it's predicated on the idea a chick who hates frat boys is getting married to a guy who's the prototypical frat boy. I know one doesn't watch these movies for iron clad logic, but come on. These no reason these two characters would ever get together.And why is the fiancé's family so bizarrely hateful? They all want to force her to marry somebody she doesn't want to? And the protagonist has maybe one character who resembles a genuine friend? Anyway, I'll give it a 3, as it's not incompetent on every level, but next time hire a writer who knows how to construct a script.

I got this movie from Netflix, and after watching it, I felt compelled to add to the collective consciousness of the current review pool inside IMDb, as a watcher of all types of movies, I enjoyed Frat Party and felt is was similar in scope, to more of a Woody Allen type romantic comedy, then your normal every day, style teen movie coming out on DVD right now. I found the movie to be "dialogue heavy" for those use to the more physical comedy of the genre, but I also felt it was more like a romantic comedy than most other genre titles in this particular field. I enjoyed watching the movie and felt that Caroline D'amore to a particularly exceptional job as "Adrianna" the heiress to a Wine Fortune, I felt Caroline "embodied" the typical dialogue heavy pretty romantic comedy type, whilst the movie had a lot of gags and a lot of semi undressed and fully undressed co-ed types, I identified more with the typical story of the romantic comedy genre, and enjoyed Caroline's performance. I also enjoyed Randy Wayne and Carolines on-camera banter. All in All, I really liked the movie and felt it was a great rental movie. Would I run out and buy it? well maybe it I felt like a liked a lot of pretty girls and a really randy gag in an Asian spa, but mostly, I think it is more like a rental, a great Tuesday night movie after a hard day at work or school, a great way to watch two very attractive and talented actors banter, and some good dialogue. I liked it, a lot, and I think Caroline D'amore is very talented and has a long career ahead of her. She is very talented and this really highlights her abilities, as a Romantic Comedy lead. I would like to see her in a more sophisticated role, but again the movie is good and worth a watch.

I'll try to make this as objective as possible, even though I wasted the last hour or so watching this movie. First off, to compare it to American Pie or Road Trip is ludicrous. The budget, camera work and acting in those movies are so far in advance of this it's not even in the same category (and those movies weren't Citizen Kane, you know?)The plot is about some dude who's scored with tons of chicks who is now settling down with 'the one' and getting married after graduation. Trouble is, the last frat party of his college career is the night before the wedding so he has to miss the family dinner which is the same night as well (in real life, this is a no brainer, you go to the dinner). He talks his girlfriend (who has painfully thin legs) into letting him go to the party.If you think you're going to see awesome party scenes with craziness all over, you've come to the wrong place. I've been to frat parties in the middle of the year that are more kickin than the one they have. Seriously. There are 30 people there. That's the problem with this whole movie. It's so low budget it's painful. The wedding where she has 270+ people attending has around 10 leaving the church. You're telling me the director and actors couldn't find friends to fill it? Homeless people? Anyone? And the movie is around 60 minutes, the other time is spent with montages of Napa valley wine images or driving scenes that may or may not have the main character's car in it (no kidding). The characters behave in ways that no person in real life does, and the wedding business is the icing on the cake. Your boyfriend didn't show up in time, so here, marry this other dude who your dad (they couldn't find a real Italian dude?) invited, even though you don't really like him. And he's been banging your sister. The writer of this movie needs his writing license revoked for the good of humanity. I didn't laugh, or even chuckle once during this mess. I didn't even think 'that was sort of funny'. If you're not stoned out of your gourd, for the love of all that's holy stay away from this movie.

I saw this Movie at the Houston Comedy Film Festival, and it beat every single other movie I saw there, it also won the Best Cinematography award at the festival. The movie stars Randy Wayne (Dukes of Hazzard 2) and Caroline D'amore (Sorority Row) and Jesse Jane (Pirates) along with a bunch of hot girls at the Fraternity Party and a decent amount of pretty undressed girls (which I personally like since I am a GUY). The story moves along fast and has some pretty good twists and turns in the plot line. Along with a very funny gross out gag in the Asian Spa (you can imagine) in the unrated version which was screened at the Film Festival. Dan Levy, who is a young new comedian plays a the straight edge, sarcastic, character very well, and Jareb Dauplaise (MTV), plays the best buddy goofy crack up guy. This movie is a great quick watch, it clocks out at 85 Minutes and is full of fun stuff, the DVD includes some extras including an interview with Jesse Jane (if you like her) and a behind the scenes look at the Frat House and the Asian Spa scene (the behind the scenes look is really funny stuff as to how they staged the Asian spa gag). All in All if you like American Pie style comedies, like Road Trip, or Beer League, or Hangover type stuff, this falls right in.
