It wasn't a perfect movie. It was unbelievable, predictable, stupid and there were a few plot holes, but it was entertaining, the acting was good and it was fairly fun to watch.

Surprisingly bold and likable raunchy comedy, and the cast is a big plus. Josh Zuckerman is very good, Amanda Crew is awesome. It has some very funny scenes, as well as it's share of gross out scenes. Overall though it's very entertaining.

In Todd Phillips' "Road Trip", the filmmaker pays homage to his own bout with puberty when Amy Smart frees her boobs, just like how Phoebe Cates frees her boobs in Amy Heckerling's "Fast Times at Ridgemont High". Everybody In Todd Phillips' "Road Trip", the filmmaker pays homage to his own bout with puberty when Amy Smart frees her boobs, just like how Phoebe Cates frees her boobs in Amy Heckerling's "Fast Times at Ridgemont High". Everybody remembers what Cates wore, a two-piece red bikini, now: Think fast! What was Smart wearing before she pulled it over her head? That's why Phillips failed. Nobody remembers Smart's spaghetti strap. Memorable clothing, not just memorable boobs, is the reason why Cates' poolside scene has its own wing in the Perv-Hall-of-Fame. Linda Barrett was a bad girl. She showed Stacey Hamilton(Jennifer Jason-Leigh) how to fellate a carrot in the Ridgemont High cafeteria. Felicia(Amanda Crew) is a good girl. In "Sex Drive", she drives Ian(Josh Zuckerman) crazy by being in love with Lance(Clark Duke), just like another good girl, Maggie(Kerri Green), who chooses Cappie(Charlie Sheen) over Lucas(Corey Haim) in David Seltzer's "Lucas", the 1986 film that quietly informs this "American Pie" retread", redeemed and given transcendence by a sweet performance by Crew, whose Felicia is soft like Green's cheerleader, the high school girlfriend you always wished for(when you weren't busy wishing for boobs). After "Lucas", the auburn-haired beauty starred in Bill L. Norton's "Three for the Road", and wouldn't you just know it, our three heroes are three for the road. "Sex Drive" has two inspired bits: an ornery Amish man(Seth GREEN), and a donut costume. Read the donut, read Ian as a talking p****. In the short form music video for "That's Good"(directed by Gerald Casale), an animated French fry screws an animated donut hole. After the climactic scene in the parking lot, the donut costume becomes prosaic; Ian's masculine performance transforms his emasculating mall get-up, back into a mere donut costume. Now when he talks, it's his own voice, and not contracting vaginal muscles.… Expand

Hilarious. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. Critics are cranky, unhappy, unfunny people. The only people who shouldn't be reviewing movies are movie critics themselves.

It's not the next Superbad that people are still waiting for, but it has enough laughs to keep its target audience entertained.

Just much better than critics suggested. Built to a crescendo after the first half hour. Worth a shot.

I've never been a big fan of "Teen movies" or "Teen sex comedies"...the first American Pie film was kind of funny but the sequels and direct to video garbage that followed made me despise the genre altogether...and now we have I've never been a big fan of "Teen movies" or "Teen sex comedies"...the first American Pie film was kind of funny but the sequels and direct to video garbage that followed made me despise the genre altogether...and now we have "Sexdrive"...and at first glance it seems like a "American Pie on Wheels" from the "character embarassment" at the beginning of the film to the inevitable conclusion which involves...you guessed it...S-E-X. Though something about this movie made me think differently...perhaps it was the likeable characters, unique moments of hilarity, or James Marsden's hilarious over-the-top potrayal of a bullying homo-phobic (with a twist) big brother. The movie centers around Ian, Lance, and Felicia...they hit the road so Ian can "become a man" by meeting up with some girl he met on the internet...all the while he is really in love with his best friend Felicia who just so happens to like Lance, whom is a womanizing though caring friend of Ian's...the movie carries this love triange up to about the halfway point where it becomes obvious that things are going to go in Ian's favour, a tad bit cliche...but the young actors have great chemistry wtih each other, so it comes off as natural and funny. Overall....Sexdrive is easily one of my favorite comedies of 2008, from the previews i completely wrote this movie off...but after hearing more about it i gave it a chance and im glad i did...its a truly remarkable "Teen sex comedy" in the sense that its actually FUNNY and while it riddled with cliches (embarassing the main character, a road trip, a gorgeous best friend love interest, the cocky womanizing best friend) it all comes together in a way unlike anything ive seen of its type. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.… Expand

I couldn't stop laughing. The performances are wacky but still streamlined in their element, and the film rolls along a road of sexual conquest, evolution of relationships, and a donut costume! Check it out for a very fun time!… Expand
