Adam and Eve Trailers

Easy-going, gentle college-boy Adam Baker enjoys frat-life, however disgusting the frat-house gets because of his sloppy house-mates Freddie, Ferguson and Munch. Then Adam meets Eve, starts falling in love, but gets jealous of frat-brother Billy, who 'bumps' almost constantly without seeking love, while Eve guards her campus-unique virginity. As even his thrice-divorced dad, an MD, urges Adam to get laid rather then loved, his patience runs out against healthy hormones

I gave this 1 out of ten -- +5 for Emmanuelle Chriqui and -4 for the rest of the movie. It looks like it was written by 2 different people: the first a thoughtful romantic and the other a retarded frat boy. Unfortunately, the frat boy's input won out. I can only assume that Cameron Douglas got the part because of his family connections (Michael's son)-- no self-respecting casting director would have hired this cigar store Indian. I suppose that this was listed as a comedy by default -- not sure what other category it could be put in since "turkey" is not an option. I didn't think it was possible but this movie is below National Lampoon's usual standards. Do yourself a favor and give this one a pass.

First of all, I couldn't "find" or dig the "National Lampoon's" trademark through all the way. I didn't find some jokes at the level of a NL movie; still, I think this is a clever and funny romantic comedy that has the occasional and effective sex jokes that surround the main couple of the movie.The principal plot deals with Adam insisting on taking Eve's virginity while she thinks she's "Not ready" and prefers cuddling after making out. Yes, it sounds she's a c*** teaser but she has her very personal reasons. Anyways, Adam totally wasted cheats on Eve and gets a viral infection (TSD) but has a hard time telling it to Eve.One thing leads to another and in the end they make up and have sex. Wow, I surely want a girlfriend like Eve! Emmanuelle Chriqui is extremely hot, sexy, cute, and delivers a believable performance. Cameron Douglas does what he can. The direction is plastic and does not offer anything new, nor the soundtrack or sub-plots.Watch it only if you don't have anything else to do or if you have the hots for Mrs. Chriqui. God, she's so PERFECT.

The moral of the story, and the main plot point between the two main leads, playing Adam & Eve - told very well, and acted out well. The rest of it? I don't know. Guess it is National Lampoon drivel.So watch the movie for the interplay going on and the well written story about waiting for the right one to have sex with first, and when you hold off, the complications that arise in the male partner. I have been there before myself. And I know what he is feeling. Except now I can handle it with more of a level of maturity. So that is why you should watch this. It is a realistic portrayal of that kind of happening, in many relationships today. Albeit less than a few decades ago, but it is still happening around us...I connected and cared for these two main characters, Adam & Eve, but the rest? Who cares.

With great hopes of hearing that this movie was funny my roommates and i rented it. i would have rather watched grass grow, hung myself, or stab myself in the eye with a knife then watch this movie. the plot was weak at best, the acting was horrible. the big scene you wait the entire movie for was worthless. the only thing that held this movie together was the character of eve (Emmanuelle Chriqui) and the character munch (Brian Klugman). munch did some funny things, not laugh out loud funny but things that you wish you did in college. the character of eve was very attractive however lacked in acting. if you really want to waste a hour and a haft of your life go head watch this movie, but it frankly sucks. i've seen some bad movies, and this is surly on my top 3 all time worst movies list, hands down.
