Featured reviews
1 Hour longer than it needed to be. Kinda boring, racially offensive, YouTube Video
I'm surprised to see such high ratings for this movie. But when I read the reviews from people who gave the movie 9 and 10 stars, it became obvious that they were big fans of Dawson who were more interested in propping up the film rather than review it.
. SO to get a non-fan review To me, the movie was one of the worst I have seen in a long time. Was there a plot? The movie seemed to drag on, with a couple of funny scenes throughout--a couple.
I was most offended and turned off by Shane's treatment of ethnic minorities / people of color in the film: The African-American homeless man (and two other cartoonish Black characters) was INSULTING, not funny; the stereotype of the Latina woman was insulting, not funny--unless you're a bigot; the stereotype of the Indian character was insulting, not funny. The thing that made it even worse for me was that the movie would have played the same had these characters not been played as their negative stereotypes.
It was almost like 2 movies: the beginning was very silly; the middle was simply silly; and the ending was not bad.I will say, however, that the female lead character has talent and was the best part of the film. As for the lead male characters, I had a hard time believing that either of them was into women. Whether or not they are in real life is not the issue, but it made their relationships with the female characters feel forced. Maybe it was their poor acting.

Just an awful waste of 90 minutes
Anyone giving this anything higher than a 3 is either -14 yrs old, family/friends of his or lying through their teeth because they're a fan. It is poorly directed, even more poorly acted (with the exceptions of the 2 lead female roles), awkwardly unfunny (using another reviewers term) and highly offensive...and I'm not sensitive.
There is nothing creative or witty about it. It is an epic fail...and if it wins this contest it will speak volumes negatively of the fans that Shane Dawson has and their character. I truly can't begin to understand how anyone could even stomach it, let alone like the movie.
This movie is trash...nothing more. It is of the quality you'd expect from some teenagers making a home movie in their parents' house....But with really good equipment. I wish I could've given it a "0".I only watched it all to accurately participate in "The Chair" contest...and knew within 2 minutes I hated it...But, rules forced me to watch if I wanted to participate.

the worst experience of my life
Nothing has ever made me more uncomfortable than this movie.
Not Cool is a movie that isn't very cool... unless you are perhaps a hardcore Shane Dawson fan
I was expecting to like this movie going in because I happen to think that Shane Dawson has some talent as a comedian. My opinion has severely dropped after this movie.
Let me start with the comedy. Most of the dialogue is either cringey or uninspired and the jokes that are supposed to make me laugh because they are gross and random don't work because there is no sense of comedic timing or pacing for each joke. Each joke comes out awkward and forced and most comedies have jokes that tie in to the story but a lot of these jokes are not incorporated very well.
The plot is very weak and cliché in a lot of places. The two main leads have to have a fight to propel the third act and you know they are going to end up together somehow because "true love". The screenplay does nothing to help me connect with any of the characters on the screen and most of the characters are deplorable souless beings. We could've at least gotten some funny jokes with the characters from Shane's youtube channel but he decides that these boring and cookie cutter characters are enough to propel the story.
The acting is awful but I can feel that Shane is trying in some places but most of the actors need to take some acting lessons.
This movie had a horrible sense of pace and the direction is equally awful. The music is some of the most shitty teen melodramatic music I've heard.
I am sad that most people who gave this movie a 10/10 probably gave it just because it was Shane Dawson.
Shane, I don't hate you but please never do a movie ever again

Another Shane Dawson DISASTER! He Needs To Be Held Accountable For His Crimes!
Shane needs to face the music for all he's done wrong, instead of getting a constant hall pass because he's made so many of these awful shows like this,and he knows people like Susan Wojycki(sp.) We in the industry have known or had a good idea of the perversion that he's been up to for a long time,we've even tried to get him ousted,but we were told he has too many subs to remove.... I guess that makes him God, he can do whatever he wants... Many things are still accusations,and he's still innocent until proven guilty, but he thinks he's SO UNTOUCHABLE that he constantly videotaped himself doing stupid stuff, like how he- along with his girlfriend - graphically & demonstratively taught his 12yo niece about sex, while using a stuffed "Peeps" bunny 's ears as a woman's legs!!! These are shock ing and hard to watch, every day more and more videos just like this are coming to light! Shane needs to go to jail, there they don't take kindly to people who've messed with kids! *Cue Chris Hanson!*
