TAKE ME HOME TONIGHT
1 out of 5 stars

GRR... this was sooooo disappointing!!! i just don’t understand why they didn’t just make a “that 70’s show” movie instead. such a waste... topher grace, you not funny anymore... :/

take me home tonight marketed itself as an 80s “coming of age” comedy, but it ends up being...well, stupid and LAME. if you’ve seen “i love you, beth cooper”, skip this one b/c it’s almost the exact same plot. you have your lovestruck loser, matt franklin (topher grace), who has a brainy twin sister named wendy (anna faris) and a dumbass BFF named barry (comedian dan fogler from balls of fury), who’s a horny car salesman. he’s graduated from M.I.T., but since he’s still trying to figure stuff out, he’s working at a suncoast video store at the mall. one day, while he’s working at suncoast, he spots his HS crush, tori frederking (teresa palmer i.e. becky from the sorcerer's apprentice) come into the store! he freaks, but somehow engages in conversation with her, even lying about his job at goldman sachs... from there, he, wendy, barry go to wendy’s BF’s labor day weekend party, where the night gets very eventful... :P (i.e. barry and matt steal a mercedes from barry’s dealership, do some coke b/c hey! it’s the 80s!, barry ends up in a “threesome”, and matt ends up sleeping with tori!)

if this was as crazy and fun as katy perry’s music video “last friday night”, i would have given it some credit... but it’s not and it’s also kind of serious for a comedy. WTF?! only great thing is the character of barry who provides some good comic relief and the awesome 80s soundtrack... other than that, pass on this... :/
