Puddle Cruiser (1996)
Member Rating:  
Grogan (Kevin Heffernan) and Matt (Paul Soter) get caught red-handed stealing food from the college cafeteria, but Felix (Steve Lemme) calmly climbs out a back window and gets away. Later, at a party with his friend, Zach (Jay Chandrasekar), Felix catches sight of Suzanne (Kayren Butler) and is immediately smitten. But not only does Suzanne have Traci (Jamison Selby), her jock boyfriend from home, hanging around, it also turns out that she's defending Felix's moronic friends in the school's case against them. As if this wasn't enough trouble, she's also trying to get them to turn in their unknown accomplice. Zach has his own romantic problems. He's gotten the phone number of a beautiful woman, but she's left out one of the digits, and he's too shy to approach her again, necessitating several hours of dialing wrong numbers. Meanwhile, Suzanne's friend, Emily (Alison Clapp), is being pursued by the kooky campus mailroom worker, Freaky Reaky (Erik Stolhanske). Puddle Cruiser was the first feature from the Colgate University-spawned comedy troupe, Broken Lizard, who produced the film independently. The film was well received at several festivals, including the 1996 Sundance Film Festival, but failed to find a distributor. The troupe took the film on an innovative national college tour, selling tickets and building word-of-mouth. Broken Lizard's follow-up feature, Super Troopers, received a wide theatrical release in 2001. ~ Josh Ralske, Rovi

Don't be fooled by my reivew title. I'm not saying that this is a porn movie. It has the production quality of one of those late night soft-core Skinnemax films. Very slow, not very funny, and a bad attempt at being "artsy." I couldn't even finish the movie. Super Troopers happens to be one of my favorite films. I couldn't stand Club Dread and I absolutely loved Beerfest. This movie isn't as horrible as Club Dread, however, it's a lot more boring. But don't forget, this movie paved the way for Super Troopers.

Broken Lizzard has made some great films. this is not one of them. The humor is bland and feels very force. The sentimental parts are hollow and actually painful to watch. Do yourself a favor, watch Supertroopers or Beerfest instead and try to convince yourself that you never heard of this movie.
