Malibu Crush (2022)
8/10
A funny movie in it's own right, good for low budget
5 April 2023
A good movie in it's own right, but not your typical comedy material.

As the movie started, I was trying to compare it to other comedies in it's form of humor, it's a mix of American Pie, Dude Where's my Car and has parts that feel similar to a Stephen Merchant comedy.

Many of the scenes are basic, but still pull a laugh. The movie was good, but compared on a comedic level to American Pie or Dude Where's my Car, it falls short because of the scale of the film. It looks like it was shot on a small budget so the audience relies on the humor and acting rather than having special effects and bigger locations.

In general the acting is hilarious, Billy White and James Pratt definitely turn a pretty simple story line into an entertaining movie. Bella Valentini and Brittany Hockley also have acting scenes that keep you watching.

I like the movie, it over achieves for an independent film, however it doesn't compare to an American Pie scale and won't be the same watching.
