7/10
Formulaic but funny
12 March 2010
She's Out of My League is nothing we really haven't seen before by any means. The hot (and I mean WOW) girl likes the nerd, nerd can't believe it, they have an awkward date, fall in love, the awful family members who are embarrassing, experience major conflict, overcome conflict with the help of their friends, live happily ever after. The difference between this and many like it is this movie is actually pretty funny. It's not afraid to be a little bit and some very raunchy. This is laugh out loud humor, not pretentious "clever humor." I'm not opposed to clever humor but I've always believed clever isn't always funny and funny isn't always clever and this is a prime example.

If you want a good laugh with a familiar theme this is a good movie. The characters' personalities are pretty much what you are used to, but I promise this one is very funny.
