Matthew is an ambitious high school senior, with dreams of a career in politics who has just been accepted to go to George Town University. Everything academically is perfect for him but it’s his social life that is in shambles. While he is the class president he is somewhat of a geek and has had no luck with the ladies something he desperately wishes for. That is why he is overjoyed to discover that his new neighbor, 19-year-old Danielle, is absolutely beautiful. But when she discovers him peeping on her while she undresses she is about to throw his life into complete turmoil. They began a wacky relationship where she gets Matthew to do things he would have never dreamed himself doing. But when they begin to fall into love, and go head over heels for each other they are about to be thrown a new twist. Their newly founded relationship is put to the test, when Matthew discovers (along with the rest of the town, eventually) that she used to be a... porn star. No Matthew who has feelings for Danielle has no idea what he is suppose to do as a serious of crazy events befall him when Danielle’s old producer comes to town to try and take Danielle back into the porn industry. So with the help of his geeky friends Matthew is about to put up a fight for the girl he loves but not before he risks being expelled as well as possibly going to jail.
I really should be ashamed I liked this movie as it was almost like watching soft core porn at times. The movie is an overly sexual movie that just doesn’t know when to say when. That being said I found the movie hilarious at least from a male point of view as it is almost like an American Pie movie gone terribly wrong and deciding they would be happier as a made for Showtime movie. The movie uses every excuse to show some skin and nudity as they just can’t have Elisha Cuthbert get naked and go at it with Emile Hirsch which you almost wish for a times. Its just the situations and things the young kids get into that I could so easily relate to as a high school kid who would have done anything to have Elisha Cuthbert as my next door neighbor who was also a porn star. There is nothing wrong with checking your brain at the door and enjoying a movie that is raunchy, disgusting, and dirty as I think deep down many of us like these kinds of movies. The movie does eventually have to tame itself and hack out some kind of story and happy ending but it was sure fun getting to that point. Movies like these will always be around and might even be remembered with some fondness like Porky’s is of the 80’s because sometimes the male side of us just has to be let out and get to see a movie with little content and lots of funny sexual situations.
