Columbia Pictures presents a film directed by Joel Gallen. Written by Michael G. Bender, Adam Jay Epstein, Andrew Jacobson, Phil Beauman and Buddy Johnson. Running time: 82 minutes. Rated R (strong crude sexual content and humor, language and some drug content). Opening today at local theaters. Not Another Teen Movie is unofficially in the race for the worst-reviewed film of the year. Rita Kempley in the Washington Post unloads this blast at it: "If there is a Hell, Not Another Teen Movie will be playing for all eternity on every screen there. Anybody who had anything to do with this crass spoof will be forced to attend every showing. And director Joel Gallan and his five writers will be condemned to sit in the front row with nigh-unto-bursting bladders and popcorn hulls stuck between their rotting teeth." Christy Lemire of the Associated Press growls, "Crass, misogynistic, homophobic and racist, it lacks finesse, originality and humor." The film gets Lemire's vote for worst film, she says, easily beating such other contenders as Joe Dirt, The Animal and Freddy Got Fingered. |
