Kickin' It Old Skool Audience Reviews

AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
megaruda This is a movie that is extremely self aware of what it is going for, I would compare it to one of the movies I love ¨Cabin in the Woods¨ this movie is completely aware of all the comedy clichés in comedy movies of this kind, so they don't avoid them but intentionally include them and make fun of them, just with that this should be an extremely successful film, but it isn't.The real failure of the film, it's the lack of star power, of a very handsome lead, Jamie Kennedy is fine but not enough for people to socially accept him as a lead, it has the wit that "21 Jump Street" has, minus Channing Tatum, there are some awkwardly fun scenes that never push it far enough to become gross, the movie knows the limits of what it's funny and what is gross, which is also another amazing thing the script had.Other than that it doesn't takes itself too seriously, it seems like a movie in which the crew and actors could have fun, I would of really though this movie was done in the 90's which is another good point for the D.O.P. and perhaps a bad point for marketing.All in all, it is one of the few solid comedies around the last decade, unfortunately the lack of star power, the out of date visuals, and the script being too smart for it's own good, it might be a movie to watch in 10 years, it came out too soon.
kevin peterson After cringing through Son of the Mask in 2005, I was convinced that trying to be funny could not get any worse for Jamie Kennedy. ... I was wrong that things couldn't get worse and the funniest thing about Kickin' It Old Skool, yet another in a long line of not particularly funny Kennedy movies, is how little we actually have advanced since the '80s.. may be the reunion of the multi-ethnic Funky Fresh Boys triggers a fusillade of un-PC misfires as the not-so-fab four try to alleviate their personal woes by entering an American Idol-esque dance-troupe contest.Kevin Peterson http://www.schoolanduniversity.com
SANFRANFILMFAN I wasn't going to write a review but I had to do something when I discovered IMDb has nothing lower than 1 star.I am absolutely floored by the fact that 455 people gave this movie 10 stars. I can only assume that they were investors who are trying to salvage whatever they can by tricking naive readers into going to see this total disaster. I caught this on cable (nothing else on) and my jaw dropped minutes after it started and I kept watching because I truly could not believe it could get worse. Man, was I wrong! I had seen the previews, thought it had potential and considered seeing in a theater. Pfffew.The scenes with Maria Menounos are priceless. She absolutely deserves some kind of award for that performance. In the same way IMDb needs to add a zero rating for this specific movie, the Oscars need a brand new category for the role of Jennifer in Kicking It Old Skool. In fact, I've just decided to coin the acronym KIOS and use it whenever I see someone who is acting the way Maria acts in this movie.I feel sorry for anyone who spent any money watching this movie. And to the 455 investors, your 10 star ratings were totally KIOS.
jhayeshs I saw this movie after renting it at Block Buster. I thought i would suck and it did. See what I thought was that it would suck but I knew about the plot. I liked the plot. It was funny and had potential. The way it was portrayed almost made me cry. The acting could've been way better. I like Jamie Kennedy's movies. He's a funny guy but I must say this was his worst movie yet. The movie is not worth going to the theatres for but if you love movies, might as well rent it. The movie was cheesy, warm, stupid, and most of all stupid. I'm glad I rented this movie and I give it a solid A OK. To all my fans ( I have none ), i give it a solid but not very, 5 out of 10.
