Review of Trojan War

Trojan War (1997)
3/10
Disgusting teen comedy should have stayed on the shelf.
18 April 1999
You think a movie like this would help raise awareness for unlucky high school boys to go out and buy some Trojans? Or would TROJAN WAR grab the undivided attention over Jennifer Love Hewitt? It's common to sell any movie starring ONE popular actor / actress, but Warner Bros. decided to cash in on the "PARTY OF FIVE" phenomenon and release it! (Where are WB's past obscurities MEDICINE BALL CARAVAN or THE COOL ONES?) This is the worst excuse for a teen comedy (or any comedy), judging by the script that fails to deliver a swift sense of humor. It's so poor and obnoxious that it should have been put on moratorium like the two titles I've just mentioned! Comedy is typical WB fare running amuck, and doesn't blend with the 90s alternative drift. Adding to the further disgust is the theme about rubber covers and how a geek has to journey through a series of mishaps in search of the ultimate ending. Not very original and satisfying, and why must we care? The only thing worth watching is having a sick mind! Real life is better with love sitting next to you on the sofa, but this poor movie is definitely no dream fantasy!
