Pretty average teen comedy, but Elisha Cuthbert will never be this hot again. This movie was the perfect opportunity for her to immortalize her naked boobs on film and she failed completely.

I like this a lot more than I was expecting to; it sounds trite, but one thing it's got going for it is that it has a heart. It actually manages to create sympathy and care for its characters, which is more I can say for any other recent teen comedy. And it's pretty funny, too.

Great performances by Timothy Olyphant and Chris Marquette make this movie light years funnier than I expected it to be. The story isn't too bad, either, even if it is a bit far-fetched...but aren't all teen romances a little far-fetched?

A really fun "Risky Business"-fueled teen comedy. I believed the characters as outsiders, laughed at all the ribaldry, and was totally digging the entire twisty plot at the end. Timothy Olyphant played the villain to a T, and it's perhaps the one time Elisha Cuthbert has ever been well-cast.

Cuthbert is pretty, but talentless. Everyone else is bland or creepy. Hardly a comedy. Yuck.

One of the better teen comedies, and it can be down right hilarious. The 3 buddies (Hirsch, Dano and Marquette) have some of the best chemistry I've seen in the genre, and the strong start they give us is only bolstered by the introduction of Olyphant's character. The only thing that brings this movie down is some of the corny and cliched teen romance parts that are eye-rollingly bad. That being said, I don't know how they could have left them out without changing the majority of the movie.

At this point, I could care less about this film. 7 years ago when I was in my teens and I had the hope of seeing boobies. This movie came disappointingly close. Needless to say it was a disappointment.

It wasn't all what I expected. Instead of your average story of high-school romance, it's extremely interesting to watch Emile Hirsch's character become involved in some really heavy situations just for the love of one girl. It definitely goes to some unexpected places.

Ya, you know I actually liked this one. Granted it's aimed for like... 15 year olds... but, Elisha Cuthbert? And porn stars? And strippers' boobs? Come on, you can't go wrong with a combination like that. If you want to know what the movie itself is like (besides the abnormally high skank-factor for a teen movie), it's one of those typical teen comedies. Think Van Wilder, but replace college with high school.

A movie about porn, as made for the sort of person who makes a point of telling you that they don't watch porn. The cast, especially Olyphant and Hirsch, make an otherwise embarrassing movie more or less likable.

This was actually a pretty cute movie that was a lot more tasteful than most teen sex comedies. I'm not sure if you c9ould call this one of those, but this was still a great watch. The acting was really good with Timothy Olyphant, Elisha Cuthbert, Emile Hirsch and the rest. Kind of unpredictable as well as the couple get together in the beginning and then go through what they have to in the movie. Unexpected ending as well as that was very different. Well worth the watch.

You hear the f-word all the time in movies. All the time. So it takes a special delivery to linger in the mind. For me it's Bruce Willis in Die Hard, John Malkovich in Burn After Reading, a silent interpretation from Evan C. Kim in Kentucky Fried Movie, and Timothy Olyphant in The Girl Next Door. PM me for more f-word goodness. No weirdos. Just kidding. If you pm me about the f-word, you're a weirdo.

It's a love story, basically, between a shy teenager and a porn star - but there's nothing terribly salacious or sleazy about the way everything plays out. The script - follows the usual romantic comedy formula, right down to the expected chain of events (ie boy gets girl, boy loses girl, boy gets girl back, etc). And despite the occasional dark twist - most of which revolve around Timothy Olyphant's character - this remains an innocuous romp for teenagers.

I will not say, "teen movie" for this one. Because it was a really great, funny film. Not the typical script for a teen film. It had all the parts, (actual funny) humor, great looking cast, typical teen movie characters but the difference is, this movie actually is one you don't want to miss a minute off. It is definitely one of my favorites.

The Girl Next Door is a beguiling piece of work, not substantive enough to be a resonant teen discovery film, yet not really funny enough to be a good sex comedy. Like Danielle, it's all titillation and sexuality on display with the desire to be more, but alas, there's no one here to save it from its own immature indulgences.

A friend summed it up quite well. As the credits rolled, he turned to me and said, "Remember when that guy was a loser? That was like, two hours ago." It's not funny, and the plot is beyond convoluted. The movie offers no real sense of the passage of time, which makes most of the relationship stuff make NO sense. The lone bright spot is Olyphant, playing essentially the same character he did in Doug Lyman's far-superior Go. I might not hate this movie so much if idiots didn't love it.

Better than it has any right being. Some aspects of it are silly/cheesy/cliche, but it pulls it off. The first hour is great, but looses its steam by adding too many subplots. If some of them were ditched and it was just tightened up, it could have been really great. Recommended if you enjoy 80s teen comedies, because that's essentially what it is.
