The Virginity Hit

Everyone keeps trying to compare this film to the Judd Apatow-era teen comedies, or the "American Pie" franchise. Thus, they are going into this with the wrong set of expectations. This isn't *that* kind of comedy. It has a lot more heart,for one thing, and it plays by a different set of rules. Apatow & Co., and "American Pie" come from the perspective of my generation (Gen X) projected on the current generation (Gen Y? The Millenials? Whatever we're calling them). This film comes more from the sensibilities of the current generation: sharing *everything* online, no such thing as TMI, no sense of privacy.

I tried to consider comparisons to other films. It reminded me a little, in spirit, of the recent little sleeper "Bart Got A Room." I also tried to approach it from the perspective of "'Porkys' made by kids who weren't born when the original was made." All of those fell short. Ultimately, it's its own film. Just like the kids it's about, it has a different set of boundaries and priorities; but underneath, the humanity is the same.

Sometimes I enjoy watching dumb comedies, but this one wasn't enjoyable at all. Just immature and boring for the most part, and there wasn't even a single funny moment in it. Now I ain't one of those types that judges movies on it's morals or anything like that, especially when it comes to comedies. But this movie just constantly gives off one negative message after another without it even being funny. Now the trailer to this movie even looked crappy, but the movie itself is even worse and has some of the most annoying characters. Especially the fat ginger kid, who is like the ultimate cock block and was irritating to just look at and is just annoying watching the stuff he does on screen rather than it being funny. I have no idea how anyone could find this movie to be hilarious, cause it really isn't. It isn't a uber terrible movie, but there really isn't anything positive to say about it either.

3.8/10

The teenage son of a wealthy New Orleans couple endeavors to lose his virginity. This young man is Matt Bennett (as Matt), the last of his group of friends to get lucky. Offering the most help in his quest for sex is Matt's brother Zack Pearlman (as Zack). At one point, Matt receives a pair of his favorite pornographic star's panties for a birthday present. She also appears in the flesh. But, don't get your hopes or anything else up for this limp, sexless story. It could best be described as a home movie. If you are on the screen, or know one of the performers, it might be nice to have a copy. Otherwise, it's is a waste of time. By the way, "The Virginity Hit" title refers to the friends' pact to only smoke weed after one of them loses his virginity - these guys are clearly not thinking ahead.

* The Virginity Hit (9/10/10) Andrew Gurland, Huck Botko ~ Matt Bennett, Zach Pearlman, Jacob Davich, Justin Kline

I tried to find interest in this movie but this is the most boring, idiotic and uninteresting movie i ever watched.

I didn't got what they are trying to do, it was so disturbing and finally after 20-30 minutes i turned it off.

All character in this movie were okay they acted well, Nicole was pretty and matt's look was innocent but the story was so awful and tooooooo slow. thats why i recommend people to skip this movie and don't waste you time as its precious.

If this movie is the last choice still don't watch it instead of watching this movie hangout with friends.

After making a pact to lose his virginity Matt sets up a motel room and everything is ready. Zack is there to film the whole thing, then something goes wrong. This is a "mock-umentery", which uses a lot of "youtube" videos to tell some of the story. This is a totally made up movie but shot like a documentary to get the right feel they want. There was a definite "American Pie" & "Superbad" feel in some of the jokes and the way the characters act, but it's missing a quality these two had...humor. Some parts are really funny, but there are also extremely depressing things thrown in right as the movie gets rolling which grinds it to a halt and takes a while to feel like laughing again. It's not terrible but I was expecting something laugh-out-loud funny and this was not it. I think that some of the problem is that I may have outgrown this type of movie (20-somethings looking to lose their virginity), or it could just be that this one isn't funny. You be the judge. I give it a C-.
