Just watched this movie since the trailer looked hiliarious. The scores it got was pretty bad. I actually found it pretty funny, but maybe because it had a lot of geeky stuff in there and the main character is a video game tester.

So the movie overall is about video games, testers, and pot. I could’ve added virgin to that list, but video games sort of implied that.
Our main character goes through a sequence of hilarious events where his old roommate spent all their rent money on hookers and they get kicked out of their apartment. The pot dealer was also a great character. He sleeps over at a co-worker’s/friend’s place and he still lives at home with his parents in a racecar bed. Some how in the middle of the night he decides to jerk off and his co-worker’s mom walks in just as he *coughs* and can’t stop.
The story continues when he moves in with his grandma and a new hot woman is hired as the project manager. This guy is a video game tester. The movie was a blatant advertisement for the Xbox (not 360), but there were other product placement in the movie. This guy of course brags about how he’s living with 3 female roommates (grandma + 2 friends).
Story continues. lalalala. And you meet JP which is a Neo (from The Matrix) wannabe and he makes robot noises and movement. He does have an awesome office and room.
There’s a lot of funny moments scattered throughout the movie and maybe because I’m a geek, they were pretty darn funny.
