Saw Cougar Hunting today, figured it was going to be your run-of-the-
mill pee&fart jokes film and true enough, it starts out like that, but
soon turns into a decent coming of age flick, whilst keeping the toilet
humour sidekicks, yet decently acted and scripted, for a fresher look
at the "seen it all before" teen film.
A trio of teenage friends – Tom, Dick and Tyler set forth from their
small, no hopes of getting laid town to go to work the off season in
Aspen, after a friend's revelation that "it's full of Cougars(mature,
attractive women)who want to bang", and while Tom(Jareb Dauplaise)and
Dick(Randy Wayne)keep true to their cougar-hunting ideal, recently-
dumped Tyler(lead Matt Prokop)immediately falls for love interest
Penelope(Jillian Murray); random chaos ensues, as Tyler tries to prove
that he's in fact an old-skool romantic and not a cougar hunter.
Cue final clash and happy ending(no film of this kind escapes the
formula), and that's Cougar Hunting all wrapped up for you; sure, not
the most exciting film of the season, but surely not a 2.7; decent
acting, good supporting, well paced and pretty much sufficient in every
other aspect – and best of all, not horribly pretentious.
Not as dementedly funny as NATM, but still worthy of:
Final vote – 6/10
