Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

This is a strange movie, as you can tell by reading the split in the reviews, but I think you have to understand that it belongs in the Glee or Strangers with Candy genre --- broad-brush satire that is well aware of how fake and silly it is --- not the Beverly Hills 90210 or Saved by the Bell earnest after school genre.So the question, then, is how well does it perform within its genre? I think the answer is adequately, but not great. There are a few touches that are original and amusing, things like: the apparently deliberate choice of 30 yr old actors for the students, who therefore frequently can't be distinguished from the actors for the teachers. (This is even referenced/mocked at one point). Also the over-the-top awfulness of the wanna-be-cool Hollywood parent, or the lechery of the school principal. But overall the script is weak, not enough strong laughs, and some flat-out horrible scenes that are disgusting rather than amusing and that don't move the story along. I'd say if you have some reason to study this particular genre (parodies of high school TV/movies) it's worth seeing for completeness sake; but if you simply want to be amused by the genre you're better off watching reruns of Glee or Strangers with Candy (or Glee Gone to College aka Scream Queens). There remains scope for a good movie in this genre. The best apparently similar movies (like American Pie) are more teenager than high school; and most of the specifically high school parody movies are more from the point of view of the teacher and too earnest, ala Sex Ed, or too sucky ala Bad Teacher; or are pastiche (High School High).

Oh my god! I have never seen such an awful movie in my life, i wasted 1 and a half hours of my life that i will never get back. The acting is so fake, the jokes are not even funny & the best part the is the dad keeps on appearing in school like he owned the fkin school.I would never usually even bother to come up here, register an account and submit an review about a movie. But this movie was so bad that i just had to do it, please stop making awful movies like this again! I would rather watch Hannah Montah the movie rather then watching this again, its really awful.A teacher in art class wearing lingerie and exposing her boobs? My god how stupider can this movie get!!Don't EVER WATCH THIS AWFUL MOVIE!!!!

It's suckier than a suck.. An amazingly bad story.. An amazingly bad cast.. They probably just rented out the local strip club for this. All the jokes are totally not funny, oh wait let me think, wait wait, oh no, i'm pretty sure ALL the jokes suck monkey ass.. The only funny thing was awesome, but how many times has that been done already? Some parts are just filthy, that dad at school all the time? Come on! A(n) (really really ugly) teacher in lingerie? And I really hope i can help someone with this: DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE! It's supposed to be like an American Pie movie, but something must have gone terribly wrong because it is more like a horror movie just because watching it is a horror.

Very funny movie! I wish my high school days were like that!! definitely your typical high school, this movie is a winner. Filled with hot girls and plenty of laughs American High School was a great buy, I'll definitely be watching this one over and over. American High School is not for the light hearted though, this movie contains heavy sexual content and drug references hence this movies "R" rating. Although this movie is about and uses High School in it's title I would recommend this movie to be watched by adults only...unless you're a senior in High School, haha. Overall I gave it a thumbs up and would recommend it to other people to watch.
