I Love You Beth Cooper

Starring: Hayden Panettiere, Paul Rust, Jack Carpenter
Comedy, 2009

A nerdy Valedictorian (Denis) declares his love for the blonde pretty popular head cheerleader during his graduation speech. He invites her to his non party and a crazy night of randomness that includes parties, drinking, and locker room group showers ensue after Beth's crazy Army boyfriend crashes the party and sends them all on the run. Does the girl of hims dreams live up to the fantasy?
  • This movie hit upon just about every coming of age teen movie cliche there is. The popular girls, the geeky duo that spends their childhood getting beat up, the bully jock, and the rich snobby girl who throws lavish parties in her parents beautiful home.
  • Paul Rust is not so believable to me as a high school teenager. He just looks a little too old to me. His character and some of the dialogue is so incredible awkward. Almost too awkward at times so that it's not really funny.
  • This movie does have some funny poignant moments. Overall though, I just got the sense that the movie was trying to hard.
  • The movie got better as it went along though and I lived the ending.
3 stars
