an endurance test

The funniest joke in this film? What does 'SAT' stand for? 'Suck Ass Test'. Hur Hur Hur. At least it must be the funniest joke, since the writers decide to include it at least 4-5 times over the course of the movie. There really is very little to laugh about in this supposed 'comedy' about a group of students attempting to steal the answers for their college-entrance SAT test. It's a Hollywood teen film so formulaic you can scarcely summon up the energy to keep your eyes on the screen. It so desperately would like to be The Breakfast Club but it has none of that film's wit or charm and there really is very little to do for the cast but go through the motions. There are at least some familiar faces in the form of Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans (who recently starred in the terrific 'Sunshine') but this is surely one they'll want to forget.
