Can't Hardly Wait
It's graduation day at Huntington Hills High, and you know what that means - time to party. And not just any party, either. This one will be a night to remember, as the nerds become studs, the jocks are humiliated, and freshman crushes blossom into grown-up romance.

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
These films are popular because almost everyone has experienced the age old scenes that play out this film.The film was shot towards the end of the nineties but depicts the culture of the early nineties.Jenifer love Hewitt was in her prime and played the girl all the bad guys want role really well.Whether your high school experience was a good or bad one, you will undoubtedly relate.Although the music that made the key scores were from the eighties, they blended nicely with other music and triggered some good memories.
Can't Hardly Wait is a high school comedy that takes place mostly at a graduation party, in which some guy falls in love with Jennifer Love Hewitt and is trying to tell her what he thinks about her since she just broke up with her boyfriend.This movie has all the high school clichés: the jock, the cheerleader, the "better than everybody else", the nerds, the white dude who thinks he's black, the popular kids and more. And it works for some of the movie, I just didn't find it nearly as funny as it was trying to be.Can't Hardly Wait probably gets more credit in pop culture than it should, cause, even if it's funny, it's just not that funny.
during the 90's there was a slew of movies of this Genre coming out. I had no interest in Freddie Prinze, Jr., The American Pie Cast or Rachel Leigh Cooke at the time...Not because they weren't talented, but because of the amount of fluff their names were attached to. As a Teenager, I could not relate to ANY of these Teen Flicks until "Can't Hardly Wait" came along. It was practically a Spoof with a Plot. I remember being happy about the Character's resolutions, and most of the characters were played by funny actors. I decided pre-Robot Chicken that Seth Green was a genius after this movie. Perhaps it is the way you recognize all these characters hitting their extremes as Caricatures that makes us want to keep watching this movie.The other teen flick from the 90's I recommend is "10 Things I Hate About You." Again, another movie that goes overboard showing the High School experience, and doesn't force a sincerity that isn't there.
this came out in September '98, (Australia) I graduated High School in October '98, and can relate to everything that is in this film. Whilst not in the same categories as Shawshank Redemption, or Casablanca, this is still for its genre a remarkable film. The cast in one word: perfect. Jenniffer Love-Hewitt obviously didn't have to act here... her Amanda is both likable, yet god! she doesn't know that prince charming aka: Preston Myers (Ethan (Embry) has pined for her, for four years! Man! and if that weren't enough there are a load of real interesting sub-plot's in this film. Including the legendary Seth Green as a white homeboy, Kenny Fisher, who think's he black. He mainly interacts with another great actress, Lauren Ambrose, (who was also in Six-Feet Under, and a few others from this film). who's character Denise Fleming, doesn't want to be at the party at all. Without giving away, how she and Kenny (Seth Green) end up together, confronting how, and why there are no longer friends it's hilarious.Another two interesting sub-plot's are the band: Love-burger, and the actions of the class nerd: William Lichter, are so goddamn funny!For its genre, this is hard to top, other films, try but without much success. If you haven't seen it, then go get it. As for what happens to the major characters, the answer is simple: Fate, its brilliant and beautiful.
