This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The Graduates shows a bright future in the magnificent talent of writer/director Ryan Gielen. A brilliant, well written coming of age film takes you on a roller-coaster of emotions, that comes to a halt with a great message that will certainly make you think! Nick Vergaga offers a standout performance as the best bud, Mattie, but I'm not saying that the entire cast didn't offer a spectacular performance. That would be farthest from the truth. On many occasions, this reminded me a little bit about my own journey, enlightening me through their deep conversations, or experiences. You will not be disappointed with this movie! It's a must-see!!!!

i might be a little biased living in ocean city and basically knowing everyone in that movie but it was great! it had good composure,all the elements, i would so see it again, loved it! It was cool seeing people in a movie and being able to see them at a party the next day! but it's not even that the actual movie was great me and my friends watched it and we all loved it! the entire movie we would just name exactly were and would be like oh hey we were there the other day etc. it was a good movie and really fun to watch as an local. i loved it! all the actors we're very good as well! this movie is definitely not what i would have expected of a low-budget film made in ocean city Maryland! it greatly exceeded my expectations though!

This movie is not just a run of the mill coming of age comedy, but one with heart, insight, and new adventures. I thoroughly enjoyed it. the scenes were authentic and i'm still quoting several memorable lines. As a newbie to the world of indie films, i was really impressed to see how much could be accomplished with very limited resources. It makes me want to see more from this group of very dedicated and talented film makers and actors. i definitely recommend seeing this film. Whether you are waiting to experience senior week for yourself or reliving the one(s) that you remember, this movie will leave you smiling and waiting anxiously for summer 2009!

I'm 39, happily married, three kids, all between 5-10 years old. I watched the sneak preview on a Saturday night sitting in my pj's and laughed out loud probably twenty times. To the point my wife actually watched a little. She watched up to the point where Nickie said he wanted to dunk the girl's head in the toilet, she left at that point.I think you have to step back and watch the whole thing without thinking about Superbad or the other high school comedy movies that come out because this is a different thing, this is an old school film not a new school movie. Something really special here, and I know because I keep saying "alright, I gotta go inside and get ****ed up real quick, then I'll drive you wherever you want..." It's a smart-alec comedy, which I like.
