    Donkey punch is a typical teen flick and to try & make it different they have incorporated some sexual slang, and scenes of a strong sexual nature,stupid teens getting drunk, taking drugs having sex, but with a twist!! all in the hope that it is a tiny bit different to teen crap like prom night. the truth is that it sounds rubbish in its premise and all it will do is encourage more people to know a stupid slang term, like the inheritly unfunny "dirty sanchez" who thought they were very clever calling their show something which in slang terms is disgusting!!!

    I apologize for posting a link on the codes thread that was posted minutes earlier but someone had said the link came up invalid and my post must have crossed with others answering more or less the same thing. Sorry.

    I, for one, will certainly forgive you as without you we would not get nearly as many codes. Your apologise was so sweet though so thank-you for this post and the many others!

    I'm a teen myself and I definitely agree...
    this really looks like one to avoid, but then again, you never know - if its directed well the tension might be effective.
    But that's really against the odds.

    not sheltered at all, I just no things that I shouldn't, don't look it up before your tea it might put you off!! I definatly think I will be giving it a miss. Trouble is there are usually some good films in the teen genre- "I know what you did..", Scream etc.. this sort of film just tries to cash in.

    well now it's on the 'net!
    There's nothing to be ashamed of liking X-Men...
    Its comics have been consistently great for half a century (I'm reading all the 60s ones at the moment a - the combination of cold war politics and race relations is fantastic!) and the movie franchise was the first of the new bunch and, with the exception of the third film, is great...

    Of course that's just imo...

    Anyway, yes, definitely agree about films aimed squarely at teens. They're not always bad, but most of the time they are.

    mmm I have messed up!!! I also know another 17 yr old lad that we have to discuss dr who on the quiet as it is not cool- I love most marvel films and am extremely excited about nick fury's appearance in Iron Man & the talk of a team in the hulk- all leading to the Avengers as far as I can see- far more entertaining than justice league!!!
    def agree about the 3rd X-men film what was that about??? could have used jean greys transformation into the phoenix far more effectively!!!
