80s teen comedies can be very hit or miss. Sure there are the classics everyone knows and then there are less known ones that can be either cheap ripoffs or just down right bad. But this film was surprisingly entertaining. Yes it was funny and yes the premise is a bunch of guys try to get laid on spring break, but there is a lot more to this movie. The main character is a nerd who just wants to be accepted wether it's by his friends or by a girl. Meanwhile he seems the only guy who appears to be getting lucky which blows the minds of the frat guys and jocks which makes for some funny moments and reactions.
The humor is surprisingly smart at times and far more tame than say the American Pie movies. That does not mean this movie is bad or skips on the nudity, there is plenty. But the movie just seems to find the right playful balance between being silly and also raunchy when needed while also sending a message about the importance of treating people especially women with respect. Bottom line: the formula works and you should check this movie out.
