Teens fight for their right to party in 'Project X'
23.05.12
The R-rated party movie that opens Friday, March 2, featuring teenagers partying like, well, teenagers.
The movie’s directed by Nima Nourizadeh, but it has Phillips’ fingerprints all over it. Here’s the gist: Thomas’ (Thomas Mann) parents are going out of town, so his friends Costa (Oliver Cooper) and JB (Jonathan Daniel Brown) throw a rager that’s captured on film by Dax (Dax Flame), the A/V Club wizard. Costa, an obnoxious little shit, tells everyone, and then everyone shows up, including the super hot-girl Alexis (Alexis Knapp) and Thomas’ longtime friend Kirby (Kirby Bliss Blanton). Things get seriously out of control, and Thomas’ house—his entire neighborhood, actually— gets seriously trashed.
Thing is, it’s 2012. This isn’t Weird Science. There’s no magic way to fix the damage done by this epic debauchery. Does the popularity, self-confidence and notoriety Thomas takes away from the party make up for the damage when the whole thing boils into a full-on riot. I asked Knapp and Blanton if they thought it was worth it, and though they were in sync on almost every other point, on this one they had different answers.
