The Prankster, a local Bay Area production seemed like a great idea and the story I heard of from a friend seemed interesting so I watched it. Boy what a mistake that was. Being young I love high school movies, especially funny ones or twisted ones (Mean Girls Anyone?), but I have to say, this movie was poorly done. I mean, god, the few BIG PRANKS the kids played weren't even funny. And NO WAY DOES ANY OF US TALK LIKE THIS!!! Ha ha ha ha! I was laughing my *ss off when the girls would say "that's whack!" I never heard of that term, was it even a term? And if so, thank god it passed quickly. And parts of it seemed like they were filmed by my camcorder! Anyways, I thought I would save all of you the trouble and unfortunately, I would have to warn my friends to STAY AWAY FROM THIS Awful STUDENT FILM. I never saw it or heard of it in the movie theaters (and I go to almost every movie being a HUGE movie fan) so I am not even sure if this was a "REAL" movie. Probably some independent film made by someone fresh out of film school using mommy and daddy's money. The acting is pretty atrocious too, with the exception of a few small bright spots. Sorry to write a bad review, I never do, but I was REALLY disappointed after being referred to this movie and then wasting 2 hours watching it. Sorry guys and girls, but move along on this one and watch Mean Girls instead!
