I need to confess, that i got to this movie, because of the new Scream series. John Karna played a nerd in that serial, and i just checked his other movies, then i found this and watched the trailer. And i was like this is the same idea, as was in the Groundhog day, but i am also a young man, and i like this guy as well, lets see what they get from the original idea. And it was nearly as good as i expected. I gave 7 points, but only because i gave 8 to Groundhog day, and because of the "copying" of the idea i "only" gave 7. But it i have to admit i really enjoyed it. Maybe it could be a good date movie as well. The only thing i would also advise, to not watch it with your parents... It could get really awkward... :D
... View MoreThis "Groundhog Day" movie with a perverted twist was actually a funny movie, even though it was intended for a young adult audience. But for a college comedy then "Premature" was actually a nice take on the genre.The story is about teenager Rob who is reliving the same day over and over. Struggling to figure out what is going on, Rob tries to change events in order to escape the repetitive day.There is a lot of hilarious situations and moments throughout the movie, and you will find yourself laughing, I guarantee. The absurdity and extreme things that happen are what makes this movie work so well.The acting in "Premature" was good, and lead actor John Karna carried the movie quite nicely. And it was a treat to see Alan Tudyk in the movie as well."Premature" was a nice surprise of a comedy and it is quite worth watching, especially if you enjoy the teenage comedy genre.
... View MoreThis film is pretty typical of the High School comedy. Some cheap gags centered around toilet humour or sex, a cast of reasonably 1 (or if you're lucky 2) dimensional characters and a heartwarming albeit totally predictable conclusion after 90 minutes.I'm not quite sure why several other reviewers are commenting on Katie Findlay's performance. It hit the top of the bell curve. For those not statistically inclined that means it was average, neither good nor bad but smack on the Mean. The film's lead actor, John Karna, was chosen for the ability to pull a realistic 'cum' face reliably. Considering that was his primary expression for the majority of the movie he was a good choice, his acting ability otherwise. So so. The only consistently funny performance was provided by Craig Roberts who is actually endowed with the ability to act. I've seen him in a couple of other pictures and think this kid has a long acting career ahead of him.The film is essentially a rip off of 'Groundhog Day' which is of course a better film. For 'Premature' to really succeed it could have lowered it's own bar and fully embraced the toilet humour motif. Other films have done this and been hilarious, Premature got caught up in the emotions too much. If it had followed Groundhog's course more similarly and become an example of total plagiarism then the film would have been better although never released. The other option was to embrace the whole 'curse' idea, which was introduced toward the end of the film, and work some gags out of that. However 'Premature' opted for a watered down combination of all three leaving the viewer somewhat unsatisfied.If you go into this not expecting much (because not much is all you'll get) then you won't be disappointed.4.5/10 rounded up to 5
... View Morelet me say guys, this is the most underrated movie! the concept of the movie totally new. i don't understand why is it getting such bad reviews.Acting wise, everybody was above average. Katie Findlay is so cute!!! Literally in love with her! Alan Tudyk was not funny at all. He was trying too hard! Adam Riegler was the one who was making me laugh! He was absolutely funny!!!Its not "rolling on the floor" funny but yes it will give you laughs. To be noted the movie is full of adult humor! So if u folks enjoy teenage comedy n want to remember your high school days again, u should give it a try!
