Freaktana A Major Disappointment

Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Blake Rivera If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

wes-connors The teenage son of a wealthy New Orleans couple endeavors to lose his virginity. This young man is Matt Bennett (as Matt), the last of his group of friends to get lucky. Offering the most help in his quest for sex is Matt's brother Zack Pearlman (as Zack). At one point, Matt receives a pair of his favorite pornographic star's panties for a birthday present. She also appears in the flesh. But, don't get your hopes or anything else up for this limp, sexless story. It could best be described as a home movie. If you are on the screen, or know one of the performers, it might be nice to have a copy. Otherwise, it's is a waste of time. By the way, "The Virginity Hit" title refers to the friends' pact to only smoke weed after one of them loses his virginity - these guys are clearly not thinking ahead.* The Virginity Hit (9/10/10) Andrew Gurland, Huck Botko ~ Matt Bennett, Zach Pearlman, Jacob Davich, Justin Kline

Johnny Only This is my first review, I've grown a habit out of checking the ratings/comments on IMDb after every movie I watch...I'm familiar with the site enough to know that some films are unfairly rated, this one takes the cake.Reading some of the reviews on this makes me wonder if they had even seen a preview of the movie before they watched it. I knew beforehand this was going to be a goofy movie, that's why I wanted to see it. The actors played their roles well, the supporting character 'Zach' had me laughing constantly, and overall I was impressed with how real it felt. It really brought me back to a time when I didn't care about much besides getting high, getting laid and being with friends. The only part about the movie that was off was when they decided to hire a porn star to sleep with 'Matt'. Other than that, the story was fairly believable.I don't think I really need to go into it more than that, I can't imagine someone seeing the previews to this and expecting something other than what it is. This one is worth the watch in my opinion.

jb121 I must say, I was really into The Virginity Hit after about the first 30 minutes. The beginning of this coming-of-age story was a little shaky (being filmed by an amateur with a hand-held camera) but eventually settled into a funny, "I can't believe that just happened" romp through the landscape of a young boy becoming a man. Matt Bennett was by far the best actor of the bunch portraying his character in a sensitive and realistic manner. Nicole Weaver and Krysta Rodriguez were very believable and likable as well. The friendship of the four male leads felt true. By the end of the movie I was feeling like I wanted to see more of the friendship. What now for the four, I wondered? I think the movie is very entertaining and encourage others to give it a chance!

Hellmant 'THE VIRGINITY HIT': Four and a Half Stars (Out of Five) Andrew Gurland and Huck Botko co-write and co-direct this fake documentary take on the 'virginity losing' teen sex comedy. Will Ferrell and Adam McKay produced the film (the teams last co-writing effort 'THE LAST EXORCISM' was produced by Eli Roth, so the duo is good at getting high profile money men to back their films apparently). The film is cast entirely with unknowns and was reportedly shot for under a couple million dollars. It's in limited release now but hasn't performed as well as expectations and probably won't be widely available to the masses until it's video release (although Ferrell and company are fighting for a wider theatrical release).Matt Bennett, Zack Pearlman, Jacob Davich and Justin Kline star as Matt, Zack, Jacob and Justin; four guys who make a pact to all lose their virginity one year and as they do they all take a hit off a special bong (this is where the film's title comes from). As the film opens we see an elapsed time montage as three of the four friends all hit the bong and share with each other their experiences. The rest of the film becomes about the three buddies helping the last virgin Matt 'score' anyway he can. Matt and Zack grew up together in the same house, since Matt was nine when his mom passed away from cancer. Zack takes it upon himself to document he and his friends' quest for Matt to have sex and their exploits; the entire film is played out documentary style with snippets of video from the boys' wild experiences here and there.The 'fake documentary' gimmick has been a little overused lately but it's never been used in a teen sex comedy that I can recall and it works beautifully here. The story, of course, has been done many times before and there's nothing really new or original in the joke material but still the film feels very fresh and unique. All though the movie is light on 'laugh out loud' moments it's still extremely amusing and entertaining. The actors are all very natural and impressive and the directing and editing are both clever and effective. It really feels like were watching real people, the movie is so well done that we get caught up in the characters and don't care if their humor is childish or overdone. As we get to know the characters the movie does become more 'laugh out loud' funny as well, just like with a real friend, once you get to know these guys you can't help but like them and find them amusing. I'm a big fan of all the teen sex comedies I had growing up as well as more recently ('AMERICAN PIE' and 'SUPERBAD' are classic). All though this film might not be as hilarious as those it is refreshing and new and memorable all in it's own way.Watch our review show 'MOVIE TALK' at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j95Zjdlcbe0
