hyped garbage
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
The acting in this movie is really good.
Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
nice. and useful. nice for the science to give a smart, fanny, ironic, seductive film about high school experiences. useful because it gives realistic characters and situations. and because the actors real acting. it is one of films who preserves memories. for students and teachers. who has the perfect tools for reinvent typologies and cases. for be wise trip in the heart of tragedies, solutions and success. for not be only a nice comedy but a sort of support for reflection about realistic young men looking for cheat as the reasonable solution for solve the fight against school. and this detail did "Cheats" a special film. so, see it ! maybe, only for the memories about a slice of life.
When my dad told me that he had found this film to be very disappointing and not much fun,I kept pushing the film back to the bottom of the pile,of things that I needed to watch,and,now that I have at last seen the film,I keep thinking why did I keep pushing it back for so long!.Due to the film having a fun light-John Huges feel,with some good performance,and some great dialogue.The plot:A group of four high-school friends (Sammy,Handsome,Victor and Applebee)do everything they can to "asits" the other students in the school,by giving them all of the answers to the exam questions!Although the groups cheating is risked at being discovered,when they are caught by the schools janitor trying to steal a doctors file about one of the other students.Due to this,Sammy feels that it is time the he stops cheating,and that he will do the final school exam without cheating at all.With tensions building in the group, (mainly between the "jock" member of the group (Victor) and the intellect (Applebee)Handsome has to do his best to make sure that the group can hopefully hold together long enough to get the answers to the final exam.View on the film:With the cast,I think that whilst Elden Hensons role as Sammy is under written in the second half of the film,due to him turning into the "moral" high ground of the film,I feel that he and the rest of the cast work well together,in the huge amount of scenes that the whole cast feature in,and they all have very good chemistry with each other.One of the odd thing that I think the studio did,was to push the film with a very badly done American Pie style poster.When actually, writer/directer Andrew Gurland film has more in common with John Huges amazing 80s period.Whilst there are a few odd plot holes in the script (why do none of the students use mobile phones or computers to get the cheats?)Gurland thankfully fills the film with lots of really fun dialogue, (when Handsome is asked why is Applebee in the group,he says it is because "He writes crazy small crib notes!")by having what could be seen as card-board cut-out characters,being given enough charm and snappy lines that,it is very hard not to warm to the gangFinal view on the film:A great 80s inspired teen comedy,with a pretty funny script.
Man, this is on of best movies i've ever seen! I like the idea, a group of teenagers cheat at school! That's juz too cool for school. There are many styles and ways to cheat. I realize that cheating is an art too, i can learn the uniqueness of cheating, no jokes! Me and my friends tried one of the style, AND IT WORKS! well, honestly, not as smooth as in the movie but, it works! At least i got 9,3 for my algebra exam! Usually, i only get 7 for my algebra. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, it was soooooooo cool! Okay, the point is, all stupid students out there (juz like me!), watch this movie, and your mark will suddenly and extremely increase!!!!! Believe me, i did my part...! ;-D
