This is sort of a weird one. I Netflixed it mostly because I wanted to see an earlier lead performance from Lizzy Caplan (Mean Girls, Related, The Class). I wasn't expecting much else since it's an MTV TV movie. That being said, it's probably one of the better MTV movies.The idea itself is an interesting concept. It's meant to be a bit of an obvious satire of public school sexual education, however it's not really as effective as it could have been. It probably would have helped if there was more actual humor involved.Plus the ending just seems way too pat and easy. Angela gives her big speech at the school board meeting and all of a sudden all the teachers and school board officials that were so gung ho about the abstinence program being the only solution are more than willing to suddenly change their minds.The acting is okay, nothing to write home about. Lizzy does a nice job as the wholesome Angela who actually has a mind of her own. She projects a nice every girl quality. What I do like about her character is that Angela is portrayed as someone who isn't sure whether she's ready for sex and finally decides the isn't, but refuses to sign up for the pledge regardless.A bit preachy, but I've seen worse.

this film is hilarious! My friend taped it off MTV and I can't stop watching it. It is really funny but at the same time has a very important message about sex ed. The blonde girl's performance is worth watching it alone! This film should have been in theaters because it is as good as anything out right now.

i recently saw this movie, and i can truely say it is probably the best made-for-tv movie that mtv has made.everything seems pretty realistic in this bizarre abstinence driven school. and it does make you-the viewers think about what you would prefer in schools on the issue of sex-ed.i for one am glad that my school teaches more of safe sex then no sex, even though it doesn't teach much on the subject, it is better then NO SEX UNTIL MARRIAGE being pounded into our heads.overall....9/10

I wasn't expecting too much going into this one,as MTV has never been known for their cinematic masterpieces.I was,however,pleasantly surprised by the this movie.While it wasn't a brilliant film or anything,"Everybody's Doing It" is a great way to kill time,especially for impressionable young teens like myself.Hands down,the best made-for-TV movie I've ever seen.
