CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Cooktopi The acting in this movie is really good.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

imdbisforme This is one of the few PG rated films with a hint of biting humour and slightly adult themes. As a teacher, it's very tricky choosing an appropriately rated end-of-year film that students don't roll their eyes at as tame and boring. Drillbit Taylor has some genuine laughs and a solid message of the importance of friendship and courage. It's a little saucy- we see Wilson's bare backside and hear his sexually loaded conversation with his love interest- but it's all tastefully handled- in so much as a teen comedy can be. In an age where parents are freely allowing their children to watch M rated or higher material, but teachers must firmly stay in PG territory, Drillbit Taylor is great film to engage students well used to edgier fare.

studioAT Based on a story by Edmund Dantes (John Hughes of 'Breakfast Club' fame) this is a decent enough film starring the always entertaining Owen Wilson.The premise is fun, it allows Wilson to play to his strengths, and the young cast all bring something great to their roles.My problem with the film is that it doesn't seem to know whether it is aimed at a kid/adult market. The fact that Judd Apatow and Seth Rogen are involved leads you in one direction, and then the jokes lead you in another.It's an average but fine film.

KineticSeoul When I first saw this movie in theater when it came out, I thought it was a pretty entertaining comedy. All I can say that it does not deserve the bashing it's been getting, it far from being a believable comedy and isn't one of the best comedy of the year. But it's still a enjoyable comedy despite the ridiculousness of everything in this movie. The factor that made this movie watchable is that it just doesn't really get bored. Even for a comedy that takes place in a high school, it's just ridiculous because the set up isn't ridiculous, but the direction is very ridiculous. The story is about 3 students that just started high school who are the biggest geeks, hire a bodyguard since they constantly gets bullied in a comedic manner. And as the movie progresses they start to bond a bit. The dialogue in this is pretty childish but didn't think it was really cringe worthy, in fact I think the negative rating is from how childish and immature the the direction of this movie is. But those stuff just wasn't all that bad in this movie or got me annoyed that much. Yes this movie has a lot of flaws but the main thing is that it's entertaining and very watchable, just isn't anything amazing. 6.4/10

callanvass Drillbit Taylor was a movie I had no expectations for coming in, not because I'm not Owen Wilson's biggest fan, it's just the movie didn't appeal to me that too much, but I was pleasantly surprised. I laughed quite a bit whenever Owen would try to impress the kids with his tactics, but ultimately ended up failing. It also helps that most of the kids were likable as i'm very picky on kid actors. Owen Wilson was actually pretty likable in this one, he can be a talented comedian but he overdoes it sometimes.Bottom line. This is just a nice enjoyable movie to sit down and watch to pass the time. It was much better then I thought it was gonna be, and that's really all I could ask for. Recommended7/10
