It was a really funny movie but, I thing that the directors intended for it to be a stupid comedy. My point is, is that it is stupid but funny too.

I thought this movie was hilarious - just not as funny as i thought. I thought of it as Superbad's little brother. It was funny and that fat kid is... ilarious when hes naked in bed. Owen Wilson's lines, though, weren't that funny and all the funny stuff was already shown on TV spots. Full Review

I found Drillbit Taylor to be an enjoyable teen comedy. It's somewhat reminiscent of last summer's Superbad with a younger group of boys. Owen... n plays a loser who is nonetheless endearing. Read my full review at www.johnhuntspace.com/drillbit Full Review

This movie is way too long. They could have easily cut out 30 minutes of it as it droned on and on. I still enjoy Owen, he was the best part but... t as funny as it could have been. Lots of comedy opportunities left undone. Full Review

I saw this film on March 22 and numerous people walked out halfway through it. I didn't walk out until 10 minutes before it ended.If you are a... ger, you will probably enjoy this movie because it addresses some of the issues that face you at school. As an adult, I found this film to be sophomoric, poorly written and not worth my time.For instance, the upperclass bullies who pick on the freshman nerds are shown in some of the same classes as the nerds. This would never happen at any high school I have ever heard of (freshman track classes are separate from junior or senior level courses, even for knuckleheads who are not going to college).If you are over 19 years old, do not waste your time with this piece of crap movie.
