If you're familiar with Shane Dawson, you'll know that he makes very "edgy", unfunny videos on YouTube generally aimed towards kids that are thirteen and under that still think swearing in every sentence is funny, and that is another reason if you go look at the comments on the movie trailer or FAQ, you'd notice a ton of his fans asking if it's rated R. I personally think it's hilarious, but unlike that being funny, this movie is the complete opposite. You'd think that after the big trend of high school romantic comedies that came and went back in the mid 2000's that people would go ahead and stop making these films, or at least throw something new in the mix but Not Cool seems to take every one of these movies and throw them through a filter that only leaves behind the clichés. Now, making a comedy movie with an awful story is one thing but making a comedy movie that doesn't have either a good story or good comedy is a tragedy. Within the first five minutes you'll be shown glory holes, feces, pee, and vomit and apparently that is supposed to be funny. This is literally comedy at it's lowest form, expecting you to laugh because "Wow, poop is funny" or "Wow, he's drinking poop, that's hilarious!" and it really isn't. I personally don't know how spoilers can exist for this movie, because I'm pretty sure everybody has already seen this, except without the god-awful 5th grade potty humour. Anyways, we're introduced to the characters which include and are not limited to Shane Dawson who talks about how nice his hair is the entire movie and has a very deep, artsy side; his sister which apparently is the "hot girl" of the movie as this really annoying nerdy guy stalks her and makes jokes that try really hard to offend you, but only succeed in offending you because of how awful and unfunny they are and we have the girl who was bullied in high school who is now suddenly attractive and who "hates everyone and is a total snobby bitch". Honestly, I can't get into enough details about how annoying, and cliché these characters are without getting PTSD. All I can really say about this movie is WOW, this literal piece of **** cost $600,000 and my ten year old cousin could literally make a more funny, smart, and better movie. I walked into this because I thought it'd be so bad that it was funny, but this movie is just AWFUL and I thought that even Shane Dawson would be smarter than use such an awful script. THIS MOVIE MAKES ME WANT TO CRY.
