Review of Take Me Home Tonight (2011) by Ducknation — 26 Jun 2014

You know I didn't really care to see this movie when it first came out the trailers didn't do anything for me but after my friend said that it was actually pretty decent I decided id give it a shot and surprisingly the movie turned put better than what I thought it would. Now I find Topher Grace really annoying like most of us do but shockingly he didn't ruin the movie the movie for me. The movie surprisingly has quite a few well known actors even ones in minor roles like, Chris Pratt, Michelle Trachtenberg, Bob Odenkirk, Michael Biehn and Demetri Martin which for the most part I can't stand but his few parts in this were pretty funny. The main cast being Topher Grace, Anna Faris, Teresa Palmer, and Dan Fogler which for the most part all did solid performances but for me at least the highlight of the movie was Fogler as he has multiple scenes that were just hilarious.

The story follows Matt Franklin (Topher Grace) a MIT graduate working at his local video store in the mall while trying to figure out what he wants to do with his life. After seeing his high school crush Tori Fredreking (Teresa Palmer) Matt makes it his plan that to ask her out. That's pretty much the whole story, yeah it may be overused and predictable it still makes for a decent romcom. Despite the movie being rated R it still plays it safe with nothing but dropping the F bomb a bunch of times oh and I guess you also get to see some boobs.

Overall I give it a 6.0 Absolute best thing about this movie was the awesome soundtrack loaded with tons of great 80's songs.
