At first, the original title itself seemed intriguing, i was hoping for yet another American Pie or just a High School graduate party movie. Before considering to watch this i came here to check if the movie is legit. After realizing (based on reviews)that it's basically another "Worst" movie ever, i figured Hey i still want to watch this to prove myself wrong. I was still hoping for some comedy.
Well, in all honesty it wasn't the worst of the worst. If you have enjoyed a movie like Night at the Roxbury then this one is for you. But it was another movie where at the end you say: So what exactly did i learn from this? Or..what happened? Or just...what? It had some themes of American Pie sort of things but in overall, I'd say the lack of commitment is what gave this movie a bad rating.
Back to the review (!!!SPOILERS!!!). This movie started with a promising scene. A guy telling a story about his incredible social life and about this soon-to be an awesome party that is coming. Only thing is, the party is held the day before he should be getting married to her girlfriend (Caroline D'Amore). So he goes on and on begging the girl, with a grind face, to let him go to the party. Ridiculous right? Where's the commitment? But that's what the title says "Frat party". And the girl's like ah well..okay. Say what?
Another weird point was that the father of the bride was just plain moron. The wedding is soon to be held and he's like: Hey, don't marry him, instead marry my daughter's ex boyfriend. He goes on and on about it. And he said it with a calmly voice. You could tell by his face he really didn't give a crap about the wedding anyway.
So now the main guy is having his "time of his life" at the party. The party scenes itself were well thought through but there was just no momentum. The party organizer tried to impress the main guy (groom) with all kinds of different things, to really give him the best party of his life but they all fell short. There were too many pauses in this movie. Like I said, lack of momentum. Things get a bit out of hand when he suddenly?surprisingly?predictably? Get's locked up in a...sex dungeon. He was seduced..no need for details (except that the sister's ex was also there). And he stays there till the early morning when FINALLY his drunk best man who was at the party too manages to wake up and realize that the groom is actually missing..for hours. Meanwhile the bride is constantly being pressured by her sister who also just goes on and on: He is not coming, he won't make it, leave him..blah. Again, what?
Okay so, the grand finale. The groom is on his way to the wedding, driving as fast as he can. Starting to see some spirit already. The next scene is already in the church. The bride is heart-broken. Then the father appears again. He then again says to the bride: Well is he coming?...uh mm. But marry my daughter's ex. Here, he's right here (a miracle!). The ex is like the backup plan. Like i said the father doesn't really give a damn.
So the bride ..boom..marries her sister's ex man. As the ceremony ended, right comes the real man who should have gotten married but it was too late for him. The new man is carrying her to the limo with honor and smile, meanwhile she just looks totally confused. Trying to be heart-broken, the main man...boom..gets back together with her ex-girlfriend (who was actually at the frat party too)..Right at the same day! You see the characters are just teleporting themselves. Okay some gibber jabber happened again .. fast forwarding to the beach scenes.
Important fact: the married couple had reserved a hotel. So the bride is obviously confused, just mind blown already. Then she finds in her beach hotel room her sister and the ex whom she just got married (couple of minutes ago ) basically having sex. She screams at the top her lungs at them but it's no use anymore. Her heart and brain are just shattered. Especially brain. Okay meanwhile the main character already managed to break-up again with her ex girlfriend. Also saddened by his life he wanders in the beach (At some point i thought he's gonna drown himself). Anyway the bride decided to also go to the beach where she finds the original "groom". They stare at each other, just UTTERLY confused, and they kiss. (!!!SPOILERS END!!!)
If you are looking to see this movie be prepared to be heart-, brain-shocked because that's what it is. In a confusing way. I actually liked some acting, but you could tell the actors were also confused. It seemed like they themselves didn't even know what the movie was really all about. Expect for the main girl (Caroline D'Amore). That's why i titled it "Messing with a girl's head".
