Blu-ray Review: ‘Project X’ is Complete Waste of Time
CHICAGO – Do you think a dog in a bounce house is inherently funny or that a gun that shoots tequila is shocking? “Project X” is a movie for you. What’s so remarkably stupid about this truly awful flick is that its creators think there’s humor or storytelling or shock value in any of it.
Rating: 1.0/5.0 |
Teenagers drink. Teenagers swear. Teenagers get laid. There’s your movie. That’s literally it since there are no characters worth caring about in the slightest and the plot is as deep as “teens party” (until the final act, which just gets stupid as the creators realize they’re going to need to get totally ridiculous to write an ending). There, I saved you ninety awful minutes. Go do something actually fun like having a party of your own. Try not to piss off any drug dealers on the way there.
The Blu-ray for “Project X” is nearly devoid of special features other than an extended version of the film. The bonus material is typical interview footage without much insight into the making of the movie.
Project X was released on Blu-ray and DVD on June 19, 2012

Project X follows three seemingly anonymous high school seniors as they attempt to finally make a name for themselves.

Word spreads quickly as dreams are ruined, records are blemished and legends are born.
