Can't Hardly Wait

Seen it?

1998 | 100 min | Comedy, Romance

Weeknight Watch

Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

It's still drawing plenty of interest, but middling reviews (41% on Rotten Tomatoes) and a lukewarm 6.3 out of 10 from audiences held it back. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for romantics and anyone who wants a laugh. If you loved Booksmart or Bottoms, start here.
The mood
Light and funny, romantic.
The pace
Breezy, at 1 hr 40 min.
What might put you off
Rated PG-13. Probably too much for younger kids.

It's graduation day at Huntington Hills High, and you know what that means - time to party. And not just any party, either. This one will be a night to remember, as the nerds become studs, the jocks are humiliated, and freshman crushes blossom into grown-up romance.
