ajhswimmr I watched this movie because it had so many cast members from snl, a great comedy show, and was written by an snl member. It was not a very good movie, I only stuck around because I liked seeing the actors. I'm 14 so I'm a bit on the young side of the target audience, but I know I wouldn't have enjoyed it more if I were older. It's super cliché and even more predictable. But if you don't have anything to do, and you want to see snl actors Bobby Moynihan, Fred Armisten, Kate McKinnon, Cecily Strong, Mike O'Brien, and Colin Jost be silly together outside of late night television, then watch it. It's a good movie for when you're bored or need I waste time.

steveflatbush Just another silly teenage sex and drug movie. Enough SNL stars to bring some humor to it. And thank god for leaving Seth Rogan out of it. It was worth a few laughs.

saintgeneveive This was not that bad of a movie. I liked that not all the characters were hypersexual and still had some innocence about them. I thought that having the main character getting ready to go to Harvard was a little overkill (just COLLEGE would have been enough), but then I read that writer Colin Jost went to Harvard and also grew up on Staten Island, so I presume this is an autobiographical hyperbole of his experience. His actual brother plays his police partner in the movie. I enjoyed seeing Fred Armison, Cecily Strong, Jim Gaffigan and some other familiar faces. The little kids added some sweetness. I personally don't relate to the weed jokes, but alcohol, yes. Mike O'Brien's character is reminiscent of Mr. Rooney in Ferris Buehler's Day Off. Will Forte also makes a memorable appearance.

The Couchpotatoes Well there is not much to write about Staten Island Summer. Thirty years ago I might have liked it but now I'm not a teenager anymore, not even close, so this movie is just not for me. It's not the worst thing I ever saw, it's just an average movie about kids wanting to get late for the first time and trying to throw a party to get some actions there. We've seen it all before, and even better. For teenagers this might be a good movie, because they might recognize themselves in it, but for me it doesn't do much. I thought it would be a comedy but honestly if I said I laughed twice during the entire movie I would be lying. Well, like I already said, it's not the worst thing I ever saw, but I certainly won't watch it again.
