    A real fun watch

    This film tells the story of a high school party turning out of control.

    There are a lot of films about high school party, but this one is probably is the craziest. The events escalate gradually to the point of being outrageous, which is what makes the film very entertaining. What is more, is that the story is almost believable!

    Most epic party movie ever

    I love all the dialogue so much, comedy is great, soundtrack is awesome and entertainment is value perfect! I'm probably one of very few to give Project X a 10! Not much else to say except such a fun flick.

    Nostalgia or Regret

    This movie will either give you huge nostalgia for those care free house parties or sad regret that you never got to experience a party like this in your 20's.

    What did you expect going to see this movie?

    I know when to appreciate a movie with real meaning, and this is not the case. If you take this movie on face value - a humorous pure popcorn movie with no hidden meanings to teach you the values of life, it's pretty good. I don't see why it's getting bashed because for what it is, it was entertaining and funny. Before you go in to see this movie ask yourself what exactly you want to get out of it, if it's 1 hour and 20 minutes of mindless entertainment, then you're set. If, however you feel Project X will leave you pondering life and everything around you, this movie is not for you. Don't listen to the old people on here who knew what they were getting themselves into and still paid and saw the movie only to turn around and rate it poorly because it was below whatever expectations they have for a party movie...

    That is FUN!!!

    That is a really fun movie. So entertaining, so amusing. Yes, it might have some clichés, yes, the characters might not be analyzed in the deepest way, yes, there might be not much of a moral message, yes, some humor might not be super original, yes, it might not be completely realistic. But the movie never supposed to be any of this. If you are looking for super artistic- clever-Oscar film, you are in the wrong place. But if you are looking for great entertainment, simple laughs and easy night with friends- that stuff is for you. Makes you recall all the crazy parties you have been through )))). Whatever some people say, the 'making the movie' style of the film looks and fits great into the concept of the film. It really feels natural since I remember myself to film parties like that (well, not entirely like that, but still). Watch it, especially if you are young, watch it. It is real FUN!!!

      Dad: I just didn't think you had it in you.

      Thomas: I know. Sorry I let you down.

      Dad: No, I literally didn't think you had this in you. So uh, how many people were here?

      Thomas: Uh, 15 hundred. Couple thousand maybe.

      Dad: Wow.
