Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Extremism in the defense of liberty is, in fact, a vice...
Borderline propaganda thinly disguised as entertainment... This movie is so preachy and politically heavy-handed, that after watching it you'll feel like you've been socked in the jaw by Michael Moore.
The gist of the movie is that the "hero" kids want to dictate how and what they're taught in school, particularly regarding sex education. Sort of defeats the purpose of education if the kids are so convinced they already have all the answers, but this irony/hypocrisy is apparently lost ... Read More
Rating: - People Become What They Hate
A movie that champions freedom of speech for Bigots as the only freedom they promote is freedom for themselves but not for any who has different points of view...This piece of piled on propaganda is uneven and a great example of card stacking argumentation....It is the usual technique of like minded folks to portray anyone who disagees with them as totally stupid and evil...
First of all it portrays a crowd of conformists..Whenever ever everyone thinks a lot...NO ONE THINKING...
These are ... Read More
Rating: - "You're so gay, Cher wears YOUR clothes"
Yes, it's some of the jokes like the one in the title that do sort of mar this otherwise brilliant, quick paced movie that pulls out all the stops to make its' point.

Unlike Pump whose high school population only really becomes active at the end, Kids' high school's students get ... Read More
Rating:  - Kids in America
I loved this movie
I am huge fan of Julie Bowen and she was fantastic in the movie
Also the cast of students were really GREAT
The movie was a lot of fun for me and the commentary track made it worthwhile to own rather than to rent
Rating: - good drama,.. not a comedy as the case suggests.
I think maybe the film studio at the last second wanted to attempt to sell this film as an "american pie". It's sad because this film is not about laughing at potty humor. It's about the never ending fight against tyrannical conservatism. Only the fight here is set in a high school. Based on real life events where students were suspended or expelled from school for no valid reason. (such as giving out condoms or expressing themselves in non-conservative ways.)
Despite the unfunny jokes ... Read More
