Barely Legal is a sex comedy about three 17 year-old girls, all born on the same day, who don’t have parents, and live in California. Every year on their collective birthday, they get together and do something new and exciting to celebrate. This year, they’ve decided that losing their virginity during a huge house party for everyone in the neighborhood is clearly the best option.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen a film that’s so forgettable and useless, a bottle episode of The Real World extended to feature length proportions. It’s basically just a bunch of beautiful California people throwing an orgy in someone’s mansion. Each character is a shallow archetype that has a personality like a punchcard. There are a few clever jokes that save the film from purgatory, though; and they make me think the screenwriter is incredibly talented yet just phoning it in. The actresses are also really hot, as I’m sure most rich California people are. But yeah, it’s mostly forgettable.
