Film 356/365, Day 363/365 – Road Trip

Brilliant, this is what College should be all about, sure you might learn some stuff but ultimately it is about having a good time and gaining some awesome life experience.  This is a very simple concept, so simple that another film came out at the same time with pretty much the same story, Overnight Delivery.  It is however a very funny film with lots of fairly outrageous gags.

Synopsis:  After a wild night Josh sleeps with Beth and videotapes it!  Then the next morning he wakes to discover that his room mate has accidentally mailed the tape to Josh's girlfriend, thinking it was something else.  Desperate to retrieve the tape Josh and his friends go on a 1800 mile road trip to try and recover the tape.

Film 307/365, Day 330/365 – American Pie: The Wedding

Plenty of funny moments but not quite as funny as the first two.  There are some scenes which are brilliant, the dance-off in the gay bar, the stag party and wedding ring’s journey are some of the highlights.  It is still a good film but just not quite as good as the others.

Synopsis:  Having survived high school and college Jim and Michelle are getting married before heading out into the real world.  Can Jim convince Michelle’s parents that he is worthy or will he do his usually act?  Will Stiffler behave or is the wedding destined for ruin?

Film 145/365, Day 156/365 – Role Models

Fantastically brilliant comedy with more stand alone moments than I’ve seen in one film before.  On top of that it is a real feel good film with an excellent final scene.  There are too many hilarious characters to name them all.  The relationship between Danny and Wheeler and Jane Lynch’s character is exceptional and Christoper Mintz-Plasse is unbelievable.  Great film packed full of non stop laughs.

Synopsis:  Danny and Wheeler work for an energy drink company and go school to school giving presentations on their energy drinks.  When Danny is dumped by his girlfriend, just as tries to propose to her, they go on rampage and now face either jail or to become mentors for children.  Not sure who's being punished here!

Film 106/365, Day 117/365 – American Pie 2

More ridiculously funny and unbelievable situations than before.  Having learnt from the first film they have switched the focus away from the boring characters leaving Kevin and Oz with smaller roles, whilst focusing on Jim, Finch and Stiffler.  Which in my opinion was definitely the right thing to do, not to mention bringing back Jim’s dad.  A very suitable follow up to the first film.

Synopsis:  A year after the first film, the guys are back from college and are looking to rediscover their friendship and have a good time so as to stop them from drifting apart.  To do this they hire a house by the beach and set about having a great summer.  Surely nothing can go wrong unless of course you mistake superglue for lubricant!!!

Film 104/365, Day 109/365 – American Pie

Ridiculously funny and unbearably cringe-worthy!  With a great mix of characters there is more than enough for everyone no matter what type of character you like.  Although it has to be said that the surprise star is Eugene Levy as Jim’s dad!  Will I ever be able to each an apple pie again???

Synopsis:  Four high school friends make a pact to help one another lose their virginity before they go to college.  They have all identified their targets, almost, and now they need to come up with some fall proof ways to get the girls to fall for them and make their dreams come true!

Film 76/365, Day 79/365 – Evolution

Directed by Ivan Reitman, the man behind Ghostbusters, Evolution is a hilarious ride, packed with non-stop nonsense thanks to a good story and an excellent cast.  The real highlight of the films is the aliens, which are both brilliant and extremely weird.  A thoroughly enjoyable, fun film with plenty to keep you entertained throughout.

Synopsis: When a meteorite falls to Earth two professors from the local college go to investigate, and what they find could very well change their lives for ever.  The meteorite housed a simple organism that is now evolving to Earth’s atmosphere.  At the rate that the organisms are evolving it won’t be long before they pass us as the dominant species!
