As if it matters, SoaP is garnering extremely good reviews, with a 79% positive rating at Rottentomatoes. Most encouraging are the reviews from genre websites, since those are the 'critics' most likely to want to see what we'd want to see, and they mostly seem to love the movie.
Unless we can't get in, Techmaster Paul, his wife Holly and I are planning to catch the 12:30AM showing tonight, so as to see the film with the sorts of morons and drunks you'd want to see this movie with.
PEGGY: I don't see how having a girl on the team would ruin it. Did a woman judge ruin the Supreme Court? HANK: Yes, and that woman's name was Earl Warren.

Don't forget the cross-gendered dentists.

I loved it, and not in a "its so bad its good" way, the movie is genuinly well made. I would highly recommend seeing it ASAP in a crowded theatre, its much better with a lot of audience participation.

So am I the drunk & Holly the moron, or vice versa?
BTW, I'm not reading any of the reviews `til tomorrow, but Google's composite score for this is 4½ out of 5 stars - a threshold I rarely see. |

Its ironic that a movie not released to critics ends up getting good ratings.

? But there are reviews referenced on IMDB on the "industry" page. Did those guys sneak in or something? |

I don't know why but this review went around my office and had people laughing and swearing for a full hour.
