F the Prom! I will start with the positive. The cast played their roles well. Madelaine Petsch stands out in this film. I enjoyed the messages and the story of the film. The execution of it could have been better. I would say this is a average teenage film, not spectacular. There are some laughs and some heartfelt moments. This might be one of those films you watch just once. It's not as bad as some are saying. It does drag a bit at times though which drops it down a bit. I showed it to a friend and he thinks it's just ok as well. I bought this movie hoping for a bit more than what we got in this film.

F the Prom is a very interesting movie indeed. It is the first full-length movie from Fine Brothers Entertainment. The Fine brothers do work mainly on YouTube, and it shows in this movie. A lot of the cinematography of this movie remind me of YouTube videos, especially during the cheesy first act. Once you get through the cheese of the first act and the cliche of the second act, we arrive at the third act. This is where the movie really shines. There are unexpected twists and turns that, I think, make this movie unique. However, my main gripe with this show is how the adults are portrayed. I can only remember 6 adults characters in this movie. Three are parental characters, who are portrayed as unintelligent or otherwise bad parents. One gets an redemption arc of sorts, which was, in my mind, unearned. Two are teachers, both of which are portrayed in ways that make them extremely unqualified to teach. One doesn't care, and the other, in a flashback, laughs along with bullies at a student. Perhaps the worst character in this movie is the principal. In any reality, she would be fired from her job almost immediately. Her daily addresses to students are often condescending and inappropriate. Her character often broke the suspension of disbelief I had when watching this film.

TL;DR: Stay around until the end. Decide for yourself.

This movie is as close to insufferable as it gets. I thrive off of tacky teen movies, but this is next level. The characters are incredibly unrealistic and lack any depth whilst the script is cringey and so far out of touch it leaves me questioning if the writers have ever actually held a conversation with a youth in their lives (ttyl? g2g? Are we back in the era of flip phones?). Don't even get me started on the costumes, a young teacher wearing clothes fit for an elderly woman does not lead us as the audience to believe she is,in fact, an elderly woman... All of this displayed not even 15 minutes into what may just be the most horrific representation of the high school experience I have ever had the displeasure of bearing witnesses too. I would only recommend you watch this movie if you enjoy cringing and snickering at the notion that some 12 year old, somewhere is lapping this movie up believing that this movie is an accurate representation of teenage and high school experience.

I absolutely adore teen movies, but this was probably one of the worst ones I have ever seen. It had such a good story line, that could've been a brilliant movie but for some reason I was so BORED and felt so cringe during most of this movie because of the cheesy lines. And all the characters in this that I wanted to get together never even ended up getting together. I (personally) think that maybe the fine bros should stick to youtube

Cliche teen-flick-trying-to-top-mean-girls film with cliche, expected scenario's and hot actors to hide the terrible story. Very cheesy and no where near a funny movie. Very superficial and sending out a message that "being popular" is the only way to survive. Don't watch the film and save yourself some time, I have no idea what the writer of this film was thinking.

By and far one of the worst films of 2017, from the trailer and premise you're fooled into thinking a good dark comedy is about to play out, it doesn't. There is nothing likeable about it, car crash plot (when there is one), awful acting (the adults are the worst), terrible cinematography, poor editing, just a mess from beginning to end. The humour is so far off the mark, stereotypes abound, ten years ago it would have been borderline acceptable, now it's most certainly not.

This movie is awful. Not going to lie, I fast forwarded through most of it thanks to the beauty of Netflix. Teenagers are nothing like this and the acting is shoclibg. Not only that but the casting? It seems like they tried to find cheap actresses and actors who mildly resembled people from other strong sitcoms and movies, New Girl, I'm looking at you. Madelaine Petsch is the only redeeming quality and she should run far far away from whoever put her in this movie.

The choice to put a young youtuber as a teacher a d dress her in old clothes? Does not make them old. It makes for a bad cameo.

Don't waste your time.

This is by far the worst film I've ever watched, and I've seen most of the transformer films. It is like if someone ate nails and what out this film. It tries to pander to teens by insulting them. I want nothing but to erase this film from my memory. It's not even like so bad it's good it just gives you a migraine. The rapey vibes this film goes off while reaffirming all of the worst high school stereotypes. It's a sickening mix of radiation poisoning and depression. I need an Ambien prescription to be able to sleep now, don't watch this film.

Its a nice movie and i really liked it. The movie isn't all about the prom or what the title says. Its the movie about friendship and the life in high school and the how some kids are bullied and some others are popular. The popular kids want be more popular and the bullied kid wants to more invisible.

I think the movie tries to convey that the high school is not all about prom, its about the memories you create and the friends you make. Yes, their will be one king and one queen but that doesn't mean that all other people are less in any way. Its just a tradition that followed for years and the high school life is much more than that.

The characters are good and their acting is fine, except the over dramatic school principle and the self praising father of the main character. Overall the movie is worth a watch to pass some time and can be enjoyed with family and friends.

I give it a 6.

Oh, that was painful. I'm normally a fan of the Fine Bros, and I really dig their react shows. Unfortunately, thus was nowhere near that quality. The jokes fell flat, the characters were cardboard, the acting varies between elementary school level and puke-inducing, and there wasn't one thing that felt like actual high school material. The only redeemable parts were Danielle Campbell and Joe! Courtney's performances, although the ending was dizzying enough to make me hate that too. You'd be better off watching Batman and Robin again, or maybe pouring lemon juice into your eyes. Just.....don't watch this.

I'm not entirely sure if it was intended to be so, but I assumed the movie was a satirical take on prom and other teen movies highlighting the event. It's entirely cringey and made me want to turn it off pretty much the whole time but I still wanted to see what would happen next???? There is one point where the movie is, perhaps, less satirical and slightly more serious when Cole gives a speech at prom, which, in my opinion, has some validity.

Watch it, don't watch it, it's up to you, but I wouldn't take it seriously.

Worst movie I've watched ever...I totally love teen drama movies ....this movie WOW i couldn't even finish it i tried so hard but it was actually painful cheesy overthetop not funny at all this movie has no redeemable qualities

This is honestly unwatchable, and I say this as someone who has recently sat through Fallen and Vampire Academy on Netflix. I was hoping for this to be the next GBF, however I was sadly mistaken. I feel bad for Madeleine Petsch, she needs to fire her agent. Avoid this terrible movie at all costs.

This movie serves as a perfect learning lesson for the Fine brothers. HAVING A YOUTUBE CHANNEL DOES NOT MAKE YOU A LEGITIMATE FILMMAKER. The worst dialogue I ever witnessed. It was like they rehearsed once before filming, got one or two takes and moved on from there... I don't understand how they ended up with such an amateur performance for their final cut. I feel sorry for the poor editor who had to put this together on premier or final cut. This movie should be used as kindling for fires and nothing else. Good day

this is your regular teen flick about high school, popular kids , not so popular kids and yeah THE PROM and how different kids feel about it. it was very easy to watch this movie because female lead is an eye candy. she was hot and cute and acted well for this movie. you know what you are getting into given its name . and i was a little surprised and satisfied with its ending . there is not much comedy in this . all the characters are clichéd. but it is a time pass if you know what to expect. this is definitely not a dumb movie. it got a message about bullying and it was delivered well. all the other movies i saw on bullying talked about bullies or the kids who get bullied. whereas this movie talked about the other kids who stand and watch and doesn't do any thing about it.

Everything was bad... from acting to humour, from writing to editing. Jokes as "At least we didn't shoot up the school or commited suicide!" is not funny at all when this year only there have been allready 22 schoolshootings.

It feels like the humour of morons like Logan and Jake Paul. As if it was one big 80 minute vlog of them together.

I feel like the biggest reaction-channel on youtube would know how to make something others can react to, but they only seem to be able to see videos, not make them.

Overall would it not only be a waist of time to watch, but they should be banned from making any kind of videocontent other then other people reacting to content of other people.

-10 / 10

Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend.

To be fair, there isn't anything super special about this, but it's of good quality. It's a "girl next door", "mean girls", "revenge on the popular clique" mix of tropes.

The acting, writing, and production quality are all decent, and I particularly like Madelaine Petsch's mean girl portrayal.

It's really awkward because I don't really have any big complaints, nor anything to rave about.

If you like "high school drama", then give this a go.

To sum it up quickly it is trash couldn't even watch the whole thing
