Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Borgarkeri A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Python Hyena Kickin' It Old Skool (2007): Dir: Harvey Glazer / Cast: Jamie Kennedy, Maria Menounos, Michael Rosenbaum, David Hasselhoff, Christopher McDonald: Idiotic showcase plays as a reminder of 1980's dance and if this is to be a representative of that era then it is best that this film be kicked to the curb. Jamie Kennedy awakens from a 20 year coma and rounds up his friends to enter a dance competition. Setup is appealing before travelling that familiar ground that ends in a dance competition. Director Harvey Glazer has fun with the 1980's theme with flashy production, which amounts to the best aspect of this disappointing farce. Kennedy is travelling predictable ground following clichés faithfully. This is tailor made for his physical antics but offers no sympathy for a character who is basically too lazy to get a real job. Maria Menounos plays the typical high school crush turned dance instructor. She will, of course, fall for him because that is her only real function here. Michael Rosenbaum plays the typical high school bully turn dance show host. He will lose because he serves no other function and nobody gives a crap. David Hasselhoff makes an appearance because he seems to represent all things 1980's. Nice 1980's dance references may bring viewers that remember the period into a time warp the film is so juvenile that perhaps viewers should be kickin' the film. Score: 4 / 10

megaruda This is a movie that is extremely self aware of what it is going for, I would compare it to one of the movies I love ¨Cabin in the Woods¨ this movie is completely aware of all the comedy clichés in comedy movies of this kind, so they don't avoid them but intentionally include them and make fun of them, just with that this should be an extremely successful film, but it isn't.The real failure of the film, it's the lack of star power, of a very handsome lead, Jamie Kennedy is fine but not enough for people to socially accept him as a lead, it has the wit that "21 Jump Street" has, minus Channing Tatum, there are some awkwardly fun scenes that never push it far enough to become gross, the movie knows the limits of what it's funny and what is gross, which is also another amazing thing the script had.Other than that it doesn't takes itself too seriously, it seems like a movie in which the crew and actors could have fun, I would of really though this movie was done in the 90's which is another good point for the D.O.P. and perhaps a bad point for marketing.All in all, it is one of the few solid comedies around the last decade, unfortunately the lack of star power, the out of date visuals, and the script being too smart for it's own good, it might be a movie to watch in 10 years, it came out too soon.

Pumpkin_Man This is a really awesome movie! Jamie Kennedy is awesome and hilarious! In 1986, a 12-year-old named Justin Schumacher has a break dancing group called The Funky Fresh Boyz who try to win a competition. During their performance, Justin falls off stage and is put into a coma. 20 years later, right before his parents take him off life support, he wakes up. He tries to adapt to the new age. He finds all of his old friends, and his childhood crush, Jennifer, who is going to marry their childhood enemy, Kip. Kip hosts a dance contest that is shown live on TV. The winner gets $100,000. Justin wants to repay his parents, so he gets The Funky Fresh Boyz back together to win the money. Justin tries to get Jennifer to fall in love with him again. If you love comedy, and Jamie Kennedy, you'll love KICKIN' IT OLD SKOOL!!!

jhayeshs I saw this movie after renting it at Block Buster. I thought i would suck and it did. See what I thought was that it would suck but I knew about the plot. I liked the plot. It was funny and had potential. The way it was portrayed almost made me cry. The acting could've been way better. I like Jamie Kennedy's movies. He's a funny guy but I must say this was his worst movie yet. The movie is not worth going to the theatres for but if you love movies, might as well rent it. The movie was cheesy, warm, stupid, and most of all stupid. I'm glad I rented this movie and I give it a solid A OK. To all my fans ( I have none ), i give it a solid but not very, 5 out of 10.
