Is Amy Heckerling's LOSER exactly that' King Kobra takes a look and comments

Hey folks, Harry here. Man, ya know I sure hope this small review is simply wrong, because I am a huge Amy Heckerling fan. With FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH and CLUELESS and EUROPEAN VACATION... I've been a fan... I didn't care much for the LOOK WHO'S TALKING flicks, but I considered those a hiccup. However, she's been flawless with her high school satire/comedies. But this film did seem like a quickie. Let's hope it isn't as disappointing as King Kobra makes it out to be...

Harry,

I call myself King Kobra. I live in the Hollywood test screening capitol of the world Orange County California. I just saw a test screening of Loser the new film by Amy Heckerling (Fast Times, Clueless) Starring Jason Biggs and Mena Sevuari of American Pie fame. It took place at the AMC 30 in Orange, CA I must say that I havn't been this dissapointed in a movie in a long time. This was quite possibly the most flawed film I have seen in years. Every character is a buffoonish cartoon. There is no way to fix this film. The story of a small town boy going to college in the big city where every character is evil but him and the girl he wants (She is only completely stupid) . Greg Kinnear plays a professor so mean that it is shocking. The losers new college roomates are so evil to him that they could only exist in a cartoon. they walk around wearing feather boas and leather pants and get their hair done at fancy salons (And these are guys) there is no amount of editing and no amount of reshooting that could make this crap burger digestible. The only good moment is a David Spade cameo. Amy heckerling really half assed this movie and it shows.
