Synopsis:

From IMDb: “Sometimes in order to move forward, you have to go back. And in this raunchy comedy, Jim Owens does just that when he heads home for his high school reunion. In an attempt to relive the glory days with his boys and explore an old romance, he nearly destroys his hometown and friendships.”

Poster: D+ / C+

Review: The first displayed design uses the film’s current title whereas the second uses an old title. All the first image does is conjure up images of a pathetic attempt to conjure up images of “college” even though the film follows friends attending a High School Reunion. The second reminds me more of the classic designs that accompanied films of the Animal House era, which I imagine is more of a draw to general audiences than the first design is.

Trailer: D

Review: The primary reason I picked up this trailer for consideration was that it takes place for a High School reunion for the year I graduated High School, 1994. Nothing in this trailer reminds me of my High School experience and probably isn’t much like any other reasonable guy’s High School experience. This supposed to be a comedy and isn’t even very funny.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
