Eye Candy #294 - "Sex Drive"

Sex Drive:  Every once in a while, you get a movie that just sneaks under the radar.  Any movie that bills itself as “Rude.  Crude.  Nude.” is bound to be worth a look if for nothing else than the casual nudity.  Ian is a virgin who decides to steal his brother’s prize GTO and drive from Chicago to Knoxville, Tennessee for a booty call with a girl he met online so he can lose his virginity.  In tow are his two friends  Lance and Felicia.  Hijinks predictably ensue.  Anchored by two dynamite, hilarious performances by James Marsden as Ian’s older brother Rex and Clark Duke as Lance, his bespectacled friend who gets more tail than Hugh Hefner (Duke steals every scene he’s in), this film doesn’t reinvent the wheel by any stretch of the imagination, but the script has some great lines and some genuine laughs.  Quite a few of the “gang” are here.  Y’know, that group of people that are bound to be in any comedy currently on the shelf today, including Seth Green, Brian Poeshn, and David Koechner, as well as “what the heck are they doing here?” appearance by the band Fall Out Boy as “band at Rumspringa”.  I laughed a lot more than I expected I would, but this film is NOT for children (if you couldn‘t figure that out from the title, you should NOT have children).  Woodchuck sez, “If raunchy sex comedies with moderate nudity are your thing, check it out.”
