Review of Pumpkin

Pumpkin (2002)
6/10
Almost there but no cigar.

Why do people make movies that could be really good only to really mess them up. 6.0/10.0 Was this movie awful, no. But don't throw things at me that make absolute zero sense just because you had a moment that you did not want to put on the cutting room floor. The crash scene was so over the top I could not believe it. The car explodes before impact and nobody dies? What is this? The ending with Ricci turning around after her intellectual conversation with pumpkin. Was I to think she would now run back to her disabled boyfriend because she knew that pumpkin was not her intellectual equal? She would have had to thrown out a line like, yes Sorority Sisters, he is much better in bed than you, to make the whole thing work out. The fight scene with no bruises or blood. Are you afraid I might get mad if a mentally retarded individual is beaten up by an intellectual superior?

The Special People event was so real. How many people have cheated at these kind of games? You might not be happy if you knew the truth. There is always one parent who is too much into competition than into participation. I laughed my rear off but the movie just missed making me believe Ricci would stay with her new love. Plus there needed to be a confrontation between her and her sorority sisters in the end. Maybe something like, "I've never had such a wonderful orgasm." Something more than Ricci just walking away. Plus Pumpkin's mommy is not just going to let them walk away. I did enjoy Ricci's walk.
