Sex Drive (4 Stars)


Ian is a normal young man who lives in a small town and works selling donuts. But he has a problem. He's still a virgin. He meets a girl online who promises to go all the way with him, so he steals his brother's car and sets off on a nine hour drive to meet her, accompanied by his best friend Lance. Unfortunately he bumps into his best female friend Felicia as he leaves, makes an excuse about going to see his sick grandmother, and he can't prevent her jumping in the car with him.

What starts out as a typical teen farce surprises with a number of humorous situations. The car breaks down on the way and they are taken in by an Amish community. Many of the young people are currently in the period of Rumspringa, a time between the ages of 16 and 18 when they are allowed to sample worldly pleasures before deciding if they want to keep the Amish faith. Ian, Lance and Felicia are invited to a wild Amish party consisting of rock music, alcohol and drunken nudity. But they can't stay. The online lover is waiting.

As teenage coming of age comedies go, this is one of the best.
