Can't Hardly Wait (1998)
Its high school graduation, and like all seniors they want to party. So 500 high school seniors look forward to a party, while in the meantime a boy wants to get a girl he's loved for years that just broke up with her boyfriend and one head-case that wants revenge on a lifelong bully. So the party comes, things develop. People have sex, drink, and go along with most of the guidelines of a high school graduation party. (imdb)

I waited 23 years to rewatch this. I could've made it longer. Round 2 begins now.

I like that Criticker says that this film stars Jason Segel, when I am pretty sure he's only in it for one scene where he licks a piece of watermelon.

There are certain moments in cinematic history that will be remembered forever whether it be the tears on Falconetti's face in Passion of Joan of Arc, John Wayne at the end of The Searchers or Rosebud in Citizen Kane but they all pale in comparison to the party being broken up in Can't Hardly Wait set to blink-182's Dammit.

A great teen comedy. All of the characters do their part without drowning each other out to come up with an end result that is easily memorable.

Another forgettable high school film made in the late 90's. This one stands out for having Jennifer Love Hewitt in it. It's not bad, but it's no where near original, and you'll likely be disinterested in watching it unless you happen to catch yourself in a very nostalgic mood and want to reminiscence about high school... and you happened to graduate between '95 and '01.

Preston's been stalking Amanda for 4 years. Meanwhile, Amanda was recently dumped by the biggest asshole in school, whom she dated for those 4 years without realizing what an asshole he was. What's the message here? That a stalker deserves a shallow chick? Awesome!

Can't Hardly Wait doesn't become unwatchable. It's not funny, it has no real drama, the characters are all one-dimensional, the narrative does them a disservice, and it's a cluttered mess, but it's not terrible. Granted, I can't think of one positive thing to say apart from that, but the sum of its parts is something that you will likely be able to tolerate, if nothing else. That's not a recommendation, mind you, as you're much better off watching something else.

You probably have seen a thousand movies like it. It isn't good, it isn't bad, it simply exists.
