Can't Hardly Wait
Yesterday's history. Tomorrow's the future. Tonight's the party.
Overview
It's graduation day at Huntington Hills High, and you know what that means - time to party. And not just any party, either. This one will be a night to remember, as the nerds become studs, the jocks are humiliated, and freshman crushes blossom into grown-up romance.
I know that these kinds of movies aren’t supposed to be taken too seriously, and that they borrow heavily from earlier mediocre movies. But…. wow. This movie has nothing to offer beyond Ms. Hewitt in the mother of all pushup bras and a bunch of background characters that later went on to garner some level of notoriety. And Hewitt is terribly miscast here as she doesn’t have the charisma to be a leading lady. Worse, the movie was really just one big cliche. It is kind of ironic that the one decent scene in the entire movie takes place in a bathroom between two secondary characters. The whole thing was just soooooo mediocre.
