  • Starring: Blake Lively, Jonah Hill, Justin Long
  • Summary: High school senior Bartleby "B" Gaines is on his way to scoring eight out of eight rejection letters from colleges, which isn't going to go over big with Mom and Dad. At least he's not alone in the exclusion. Several of his crew of outcast friends are in the same, college-less boat. So how does a guy facing a bleak career please his parents and get noticed by dream girl Monica? Simple. Open his own university. (Universal Pictures)… Expand

    It's one of the few genuinely funny comedies in a dismal movie summer.

    If you can lighten up for an hour and a half, the film delivers one good laugh after another.

    Go right ahead and skip this one at the Cineplex. You've got my word: It won't be on the final.

    This movie was hilarious. I though it would mostly be funny for Lewis Black, but it was funny everywhere else.

    Not the funniest movie I've seen, but hilarious nonetheless. Definently worth buying.
