Details

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

Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
PeachHamBeach I am only giving this one a 5 out of 10 because of all the disgusting frat boy humor. I can take frat boy humor, but in moderate amounts. I don't think many women want to know what a guy's balls smell like after at least a week of no bathing, anymore than a guy wants to know what a tampon left in for a week might smell like. Ugh! The one bright spot in this flawed comedy is Emmanuelle Chriqui. I don't know what draws her to so many frat boy comedies, but she is a very lovely, talented and charming actress who probably gets less respect that she deserves. She nails the realistic emotions of virgins everywhere. We were all virgins at one time, and it's true: For some reason, we just don't want to do it until that right, perfect (or as perfect as can be) moment comes. There are issues with intimacy, fear of being naked (figuratively, not physically) and the terror that once you open up and reveal your entire body and soul, that person will only betray you.I don't know what attracted Eve to Adam at all. He was just another damaged-goods frat boy with so many tattoos that it only made him look trashy. His haggard face also suggest a really rough lifestyle that included too much booze and probably some drugs too. He and his roommates are a bunch of slobs who lay around all day drinking, eating junk and watching porn.SPOILER AHEAD! It's just an opinion, but she was way too good for him and should not have even given him the time of day. Or maybe his tattoos and "rode hard and put away wet" appearance is what attracted her. As a character, Adam does seem sweet and sincere at times, but there just didn't seem to be anything that made him a standout. I didn't see anything special to fall for. He even cheats on Eve (or at least he thinks he did) with a gal that looks more to be his type, which is cheap and trashy.If Chriqui hadn't been in this film, I probably wouldn't have bothered, as I have never heard of any of the other cast members, save Chad Lindberg, who I enjoy in most of his other stuff. I might have even liked the movie better if Lindberg had been the lead male role. At least he isn't an illustrated man.
BentSpoon No one expects a movie with National Lampoon in the title to be high theater, but most National Lampoon movies are funny in a low brow way. "Adam and Eve" couldn't cut the mustard. Emmanuelle Chriqui is GORGEOUS, but that alone couldn't save the movie. The love story is sweet, and the chaste Eve is treated in a respectful way, but the script wasn't funny, the supporting characters were not funny. George Dzundza, who I remember fondly from his Law and Order days, was wasted in this film. The male lead seemed too stoned and apathetic to care about anyone. Thank God this movie was on Starz and I didn't have to pay for a ticket.
Heath Dunn My girlfriend and I picked this movie up at the video store thinking to ourselves "This should be funny, National Lampoon is genuinely funny for those boring afternoons". We were sorely disappointed.From the get-go, this movie looks like it could have potential. No. Stop thinking that. The acting is horrid, the jokes are not funny (I can't even think of a moment where I laughed, nor my girlfriend). We sat in disbelief as we waited for a joke to come, or possibly this movie to even get better - but no. The "National Lampoon" name was obviously tagged on so someone would actually watch this. Well that worked.To sum this up, I watched the rest of this movie hoping for something funny (my girlfriend walked off and did something more constructive), something to justify the $5 I wasted on this. In the end, this one found its way back to the video store and I insisted that the movie was scratched so I could get another movie that would redeem that $5. Don't watch this movie, unless you're looking at how "not" to make a movie.
lotsoluv928 I loved National Lampoon's Van Wilder and Animal House so I thought "Oh, this must be an awesome movie!!" When me and my friend started it, we thought the beginning must be a lead in and the plot would start taking off soon. Unfortunately, this bullshit made up the entire movie. The acting in this movie was horrible-the guy couldn't act to save his life and is using his father's name to actually get parts in Hollywood. The girl's performance was okay, but she has basically screwed over her entire reputation because she chose to be in this movie. If you know what's right for you and don't want to waste $5 at Blockbusters, never ever rent and watch this movie.
