Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
... View MoreExcellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
... View MoreThe story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
... View MoreStory: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

I didn't find some jokes at the level of a NL movie; still, I think this is a clever and funny romantic comedy that has the occasional and effective sex jokes that surround the main couple of the movie.The principal plot deals with Adam insisting on taking Eve's virginity while she thinks she's "Not ready" and prefers cuddling after making out. Yes, it sounds she's a c*** teaser but she has her very personal reasons. Anyways, Adam totally wasted cheats on Eve and gets a viral infection (TSD) but has a hard time telling it to Eve.One thing leads to another and in the end they make up and have sex. Wow, I surely want a girlfriend like Eve! Emmanuelle Chriqui is extremely hot, sexy, cute, and delivers a believable performance. Cameron Douglas does what he can. The direction is plastic and does not offer anything new, nor the soundtrack or sub-plots.Watch it only if you don't have anything else to do or if you have the hots for Mrs. Chriqui. God, she's so PERFECT.
... View MoreAdam & Eve is a guilty pleasure of mine. The movie is unusual in that it is a sweet and innocent love story mixed with gross out sex humor. Its definitely not your typical National Lampoon movie... its a little more classy and a lot more thoughtful. The guy humor is amazing. I've never seen a movie that comes close to realistically capturing the sex crazed, beer hungry college guy. Not every guy in college is as ridiculous as this, but trust me these guys existed. Cameron Douglas is ADORABLE. (I love the song he sings to Eve on their first date)And of course, Emanuelle Chiriqui is as lovable as ever. My only complaints are that the sorority girl stuff wasn't realistic and Eve's parents characters were annoying. (The acting was good. I just didn't like the way it was written). All in all, its a fun movie that gives you a little dose of love and laughter.
... View MoreThis is not the "wildly hilarious" comedy that was promised on the DVD cover. This is a relationship movie that has very few funny moments. I was expecting something along the lines of Van Wilder, but this movie is pretty serious.However, the acting isn't bad, and I found myself actually caring about what happened to the characters, though I think I would have enjoyed the story more if they had left out Adam's disgusting house mates. But the gross factor goes along with the National Lampoon tag, I guess.Overall, not bad if you have nothing better to watch. But if you're looking for something funny, you get more laughs out of RV. Seriously.
... View MoreMy girlfriend and I picked this movie up at the video store thinking to ourselves "This should be funny, National Lampoon is genuinely funny for those boring afternoons". We were sorely disappointed.From the get-go, this movie looks like it could have potential. No. Stop thinking that. The acting is horrid, the jokes are not funny (I can't even think of a moment where I laughed, nor my girlfriend). We sat in disbelief as we waited for a joke to come, or possibly this movie to even get better - but no. The "National Lampoon" name was obviously tagged on so someone would actually watch this. Well that worked.To sum this up, I watched the rest of this movie hoping for something funny (my girlfriend walked off and did something more constructive), something to justify the $5 I wasted on this. In the end, this one found its way back to the video store and I insisted that the movie was scratched so I could get another movie that would redeem that $5. Don't watch this movie, unless you're looking at how "not" to make a movie.
