TEENS OUT TO HAVE FUN. PARENTS OUT TO STOP IT.Ā
When they find out that their teen daughters have formed a sex pact ahead of prom night, three parents (Leslie Mann, Ike Barinholtz, John Cena) whoāve known each other since their daughters first met try to stop them. A raunchy comedy in the vein of The Hangover (2009), but with a twist ā the roles usually reserved for teenage males are now played by girls who are allowed to have a normal sex drive. Sounds obvious, but the director (in her feature film debut) makes us see how unusual this is in a Hollywood movie. At its best when itās focusing on the three girls; the parents deliver a few big laughs, but the story is uneven.
