Really Surprised!
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
This is not a movie worth watching! It only has a lot of tits and naked people and doesn't deliver any laughs! It is a movie made with low-budget and the actors are just awful! I must tell you not to watch this movie because you will simply lose some time of your life that can't be recuperated! Bottom line, there are a lot of other movies that can bring joy in your life and I suggest you do that!
This is either brilliant in your mind or completely crazy. What you make of it, is entirely up to you. You can't have an issue with nudity of course. Also it's not so much American Pie (which of course copied other films or formulas), but more along the lines of Van Wilder. But I can't imagine any Ryan Reynolds type/success for anyone involved in this in the future.Having said that, this is completely over the top and has its moments. Not many and the pace and other things feel like its dragging along, but if you lower your expectations, you might be amused at times. Asylum is known for making those types of movies, so there is no surprise here at all ...
The movie deserved the overall three it got but I'm giving it two extra points for the Great nudity. It's good to have Great nudity when your movie is weak. And the movie is kinda weak. The story is about a Frat house that is forced to share a house with a Sorority, and both sides come up with a plan to get rid the other, so they can have the house to themselves. The movie is really by-the-numbers and you can kinda guess what happens once the Situation is reveled, which happens early in the movie. Maybe if the movie was a little more even with the ladies vs. the men situation. Girls are smart and clean, boys are like animals, I get it. but the awesome amount of T&A in the flick totally leans the whole thing to a male perceptive no matter how much you try to even it out in the story.Totally worth seeing for the tons of naked women, but no point if you are not into that.
The title and rating sort of speaks for itself.Alpha House is an attempt at being as successful as the American Pie series, with a specific emphasis on changing the plot a bit to American Pie Beta House.The story tells of Zack and Cameron, whom have just joined their fraternity of a lifetime. This dream soon turns out to be a living nightmare as the Associate Dean allows a sorority to live with the fraternity. The Dean has an ulterior motive, whilst allowing the frat and sorority people to battle it out and get each other kicked out of the house.The story line, whilst eventful, is abject, the acting is pretty horrendous and the only thing saving this film is that it borders on soft-core pornography, and some of the females in this are stunningly beautiful. The film is dreadfully exaggerated, with the boys incredibly bothered by living with a sorority full of beautiful women. And the use of catch phrases such as "boomerang" is incredibly random and a horrendous effort to engage the audience.Only thing saving this film from a lower review is soft-core pornographic content.
