Sex Drive (2008)
Sweet little movie about love?
As one would not expect "Sex Drive" is more about love than it is about sex. Ian, a young high-school graduate from the suburbs of Chicago is not happy with his life because he has finished high school and still did not get laid yet. This is about to get changed when he meets "Miss Tasty" on the Internet whom he tells all sorts of lies just to impress. Seemingly, "Miss Tasty", who lives a 9 hour drive away from Ian becomes so impressed with Ian that she wants to meet him and help him loose his virginity. So Ian borrows his brothers car and grabs his two best friends who will join him on his journey to become a man. Unfortunately, Ian is in love with one of his friends.
The movie develops into a nice little road-movie that reminds in some ways to "Road Trip". "Sex Drive" also reminds a little bit of American Pie, if you consider the humor and one of the characters in this movie. Rex, Ian's older homophobic and extremely male brother, resembles Stifler in quite a few ways: he looks similar, his laughter is highly similar, his high-pitched voice when he becomes excited is similar, and even the names he calls people are similar (i.e. "shit-stick", "fag-bag").
This movie reminds me too much of other movies that I have seen before which is why I only gave it 5 stars. Additionally, the fecal matter humor "Sex Drive" touches upon over and over is lame and overdone (there is too much pooping, farting and pissing that probably a 12 year old can really laugh hard about). "Sex Drive" is also trying to be funny by showing lots of nakedness which is as such is not funny at all. I mean come on, if I really wanted to see naked people, I would not turn to "Sex Drive". Although, what I really thought was at least a little funny was that I recognized Angelina Valentine among naked girls who were standing in front of a truck stop.
At the end the movie really gets a cheesy turn when it all of a sudden becomes wanna-be educational and tells the moral to the story, which goes like this: "If you hold out for the one you love, you are one the good guys. And if you chase after girls trying to get them in bed, well, then you're the bad guy."
So in conclusion, I guess you shouldn't obey your "Sex Drive".
Back to the Future (1985)
The ultimate pleasure of time-traveling comes true
This is one of my favorite movies ever!!! It has so much to offer: an innovative an d thoroughly thought through plot, the eighties, terribly good jokes, Marty McFly, and last but not least time-traveling. I especially love the skate-boarding scene where cool Marty McFly tries to escape Biff and his thugs who bully George McFly who is Marty McFly's father. It's really neat to compare the fashion styles of the eighties, the sixties and today's fashion. As a young boy I had to see this movie over and over. Today I can laugh about a lot of stuff I didn't get back then. Gotta see this one. Already, an all-time classic!! I do not give my hopes up to see a fourth part some day...
The Evil Woods (2007)
Five teen-agers plan to party in the woods. At their camp-site they are warned that the woods they are camping at have a history of evil.
The movie starts out as many other movies of this genre do. Five teen-agers take a road-trip deep into the middle of nowhere seeking the unknown. They just want to have a good time and do not worry about the dark sides of life. However, their trip turns out to be more of an adventure than they would have wanted it to be. The region they chose for their nature adventure turns out to be protected by an evil force that is not willing to accept any kind of disturbance. At their first night, they are being warned by a friendly resident who tells them the story about the evil history of the woods. The leader of the group who seems to be careless thinks that this warning is just a joke. Is he wrong?
