Watch Deal of a Lifetime For Free

Purely Joyful Movie!

Absolutely Fantastic

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

I suppose because I went to Arcadia High School that this movie is more meaningful to me than it otherwise might be. A movie about high school kids with some sentimental moments and it makes you reminisce on what it was like to be a high school student in the late 1990's. Every "nerd" in high school wanted to date the head cheerleader, and in this movie the guy actually gets to. It sort of reminds me of the movie "Can't Buy Me Love" with Patrick Dempsey except not as good and with a lower budget. Some people on here like the opening scene where hell is depicted as some sort of boiler room, sweat shop. I found these scenes boring and difficult to watch. I really enjoyed the rest of the movie.

There are 2 reasons why I like this movie:1) Alex Solowitz is in it, he is one of my favorite actors, I loved him in 2Gether2) They made this movie at my school (Arcadia High School, Arcadia, CA)... how awesome is that?

This is the worst version of the Faust story ever. The characters are totally unbelievable and the writing belongs to grammar school writing class. The girl Henry goes after is a plain Jane. Who cast her??? Henry need not sell his soul for her. She is not the blond cheerleader type that high school boys drool over. This film lacks humor, acting and concern. All we see are actors reading lines without any feeling,

"Deal of a Lifetime" almost makes it to second rate. Trying to be a teen "feel good" flick with a message, the film has a few "moments" but nothing to make it worth sitting through. It features Pollak and Rubin in silly roles, a couple of fresh faces with potential, and little else. Very passable.
