This is a really funny movie! Hilarious! It has a lot of fun jokes, especially if you're into crude humor. I highly recommend it as a pretty good to see for college students! The movie has a good message, which is to not be as involved with technology and constantly look at your phone. Go have the college experience you were meant to have! Sometimes, you just have to put the phone, iPad, whatever it is- down and look at the world around you. Overall, Sanders really put in a lot of work into the film, and with that small of a crew, it amazed me to see how well they pulled it off! Sanders have a lot of potential, and I'm looking forward to see what's next in store for them.

Though I be just an Englishman even I can relate with the wit and humour of a gorgeous US movie such as this. Well where do I start fresh from VGHS Jimmy Wong is delightful albeit he may be the only actor except Nathalie Ramos in this movie I knew of and Nathalie Ramos is again amazing in this movie. Moving from House of Anubis which was dark(ish) albeit cheesy as anybody's business to a full out college humour the transition was seamless. It could of gone with the norm of college/teenagers coming out movies but no it went with a kick ass RA and some lines that though were cliché had a charm to them. It has also managed to add in a kendama and well any movie that introduces and addicts me to a sport like this has to be worth a watch right

I did the 3 day rental on Amazon, and watched it over and over again! Loved the cast, the film work, the directing, and of course the kendamas! Colin Sander did an amazing job directing the movie, and I would highly recommend any of his works! I am definitely suggesting watching it and purchasing it too if you watch movies often! It has everything that you'd want in a college comedy film. There are life lessons to be learned from watching this, stories to be shared, and even ways to relate to the movie. Like stated previously in another review, after watching this movie, you indeed may not feel the same afterwards.

I have been a fan of Nathalia Ramos' for a few years now and when I heard her new movie, Dean Slater, was being released I thought I would at least look it up and see what it was. I then found that it was a direct-to-video release and I had my doubts. Regardless I paid the $3.99 on iTunes and rented it. Like my title suggests, it was not what I expected. I half-expected a cheap budget, weak acting, and a horrendous, stupid plot. I was actually surprised to find that I enjoyed the movie. True it is not Citizen Kane by any stretch nor a Mel Brooks or Monty Python comedy. It seems to be a take on the eighties movies that I grew up. The humor is basically sophomoric (of course there's farting and a guy who likes to urinate), but hey I enjoy that style sometimes. The story itself centers around three college freshmen and their replacement RA, the mysterious and banished former SCSU student Dean Slater. Dean is to them, their guru who teaches them to experience college and life in general. Being one who doesn't actually own a cell phone I agreed with most of what they had to say. Yes, the plot actually had something to say. Not always well, but it did have a moral. The acting was for the most part pretty good, and the scenes didn't looked slapped together. The writing was okay, some of it seemed forced, and I will admit some dialogue just seemed stupid to me. Not funny stupid, just not needed. That and it seemed the three writers tried a little too hard to fit in too many things plot-wise in the allotted 83 minutes. Plus there were a few things missing that could have been explained. Overall, though I still found myself enjoying the movie. Something I find not that often with today's movies. If you're looking for something intelligent with a deep message, don't bother. If you're looking for something silly, to entertain you for a short time I would suggest this. Heck, you could do worse.
