Listonixio Fresh and Exciting

Chonesday It's one of the most original films you'll likely see all year, which, depending on your threshold for certifiably crazy storylines, could be a rewarding experience or one that frustrates you.

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

matthewchippin As a fan of the show I was expecting more of the same -- low brow humour. With relatively low expectations going in, I have to say the movie exceeded my expectations in how bad it was. The story was over the top. I mean the whole party over football thing is great but I would've liked more football in the movie instead of a ridiculous story-line. Was actually expecting the movie to be about Alex Moran's final season at BMS and not about how the goat house had basically turned into a distopia. The only reason I gave this movie a 2 instead of a 1 is because I was a fan of the show and it was nice to see the characters again. But yeah, this movie just stretched everything too far. That's all I have to say, don't waste your time with it, it may actually ruin the show for you.

chopstixsolo I really wanted to like this movie, but it just wasn't what I expected after watching the series. I got into the show after it aired and I was happy to see that there was a movie to cap it off. I thought it would be a cherry on top of a sundae, this turned out to be an olive soaked in grenadine. The movie had some funny moments, drug induced hilarity, Thad screaming, and some typical Thad behavior. My issue is with the over the top stuff and the lack of show inspiration. The party was too ridiculous, the show had a lot of partying but it was not to this level. It felt like a stretched out party episode that just went too long. The show had a football centered plot, and this had little to no football. It relied too heavily on Thad and his comedy (while I loved Thad on the show, it is better for him to have limited screen time), and it made the other characters (main characters from the show) fall to the wayside. Alex and Sammy were completely different characters from what they were on the show, and Thad just became dumber. I liked that characters like Donnie and Harmon got more screen time, and it worked, but it felt like they had more time than both Alex and Sammy, who were the main characters on the show. I won't even get into how they ruined Coach and the whole Dean situation. Also taking it away from the original locations took me out of the movie quickly. Not having the actual GOAT HOUSE and the original field was really distracting, especially since they used a bright white house, when the original house was brown. Like I said, I wanted to love this movie like I did the show, I just couldn't enjoy it, mainly because it lost the spirit of Blue Mountain State.

s Radawec I was envisioning Thad in the NFL with appearances being made by NFL players. Seeing him in his uniform or practicing for his new NFL team. Seeing him getting drafted should have been a scene in the movie, considering how much they talked about it during the show. We really got none of that. Very small amounts of the plot had anything to do with football at all.When I heard they were bringing back Radon who is absolutely brilliant in his role on the show, I had high hopes, maybe we would catch up with him in the NFL or see him resurrect DREAMS on television now being a pro player. I was really disappointed to see how little he was used in the movie. Same goes for Shilo. Thought it was very forced to work him back into the story. Thought maybe we would see him playing in NFL or rival college team . But he had a very minor part in the movie.Would have really liked to see more of a story line with the development of the characters going forward rather than just over the top drugs and partying the entire time.Some actors in the movie are on the wrong side of 30 playing college kids. The show went off the air nearly 5 years ago now, there was way too much time in between for the characters to still be playing the same ages as they were in the show. Really wish they were able to make a real theatrical movie with a real budget because based on how great the TV show was, I think they could have made a great movie.

giberoutatime .... in that it gives closure on an awesome TV show in a more entertaining than expected fashion. Fans will love it!Granted it's not all exactly the same. Different Goathouse, not all the cast is there (but more than I expected really) and it's just not the same without Rev Theory, but other than that....DUDE! This is what fans have been waiting for!!! Thad was only a supporting character on the show at first and like Urkel on steroids (or rabies) he immediately became the star of the show and thus the center of the movie. But really Thad is BMS! And his story is our story. Only with more sloots.The trailer only covers like the first half hour of the movie so there is much more to see I promise. We do see what has become of the other characters... Larry for instance. Radon and even Craig Shilo make an appearance. Coach has an interesting little plot line that is pulled from the headlines. Donnie has an arc of sorts... Sammy and Mary Jo are there and I dare say even Alex gets a sort of closure. But remember... This all takes place before the start of the season so there is plenty of room to add future BMS adventures!It's not perfect but it's better than we could've hoped for, waaaaay more graphic than Spike would allow (language, full frontal sloots) and drug use galore!!! If you get past the party scenes the story picks up a bit more and there are even a couple of their trademark film spoofs. Alan Ritchson has made a name for himself doing a variety of film roles but will always be known as Thad Castle. He's a producer on this piece and hat's off to him and the whole team who kept the dream alive and made this awesome film. Watching the behind the scenes stuff on YouTube really makes one realize how limited they were filming; I'm glad they pulled it off. Kudos.THADLAND is a must see for any true BMS fan and gives the characters and this world the over-the-top; egotistical; insane yet cathartic send off that the show never could. God Bless America and God Bless Blue Mountain State!
