Reviews for Can't Hardly Wait
There's nothing new here, and no great moral insights.
01/01/00
As far as the venerable teen sex comedy goes, this one actually makes it to third base.

It's not supposed to be a revelation--just a pleasant rendition of a teen-comedy trope.
08/06/07
The movie lumbers ungracefully from romantic showdowns to Deep Conversations to bathroom humor.
01/01/00
Top CriticTheir characters are heavy-handed stereotypes, but the young actors have the the talent to give them real personality.
10/15/02
In between these humorous lines is a series of arguments and conversations between characters, which are more flat than those of real life.
01/01/00
Beyond broad stereotypes and patently obvious social observations, Can't Hardly Wait has very little to offer.

I totally loved this movie. My group was aged 28-33, and we laughed, roared, bust a gut laughing, the whole movie.

The film might have been good if its writer/director duo had concentrated more on characterizations and less on getting cheap laughs.

A failed attempt to recapture the exuberant magic of such highschool movie classics as American Graffiti, this is a loud and boisterous comedy, in which the entire action is set during an interminably long graduation night.
05/30/06
A high-spirited, synthetically raucous house-party comedy.
08/06/07
A decidedly healthy antidote to the hate-driven, ghoulishly cynical bloodlettings of Scream, I Know What You Did Last Summer and the rest of that sick ilk.
01/05/07
This is the kind of pointless teen schlock one sees on USA Up All Night.
02/08/03
Surprisingly well-realized teen party film.
01/01/00
Manages to serve up new rock, eighties dance music, rap and Barry Manilow -- a combination custom-made to annoy audiences of all ages.
