Can't Hardly Wait (1998, USA) C-100m. **½ D: Harry Elfont, Deborah Kaplan. Starring Jennifer Love Hewitt, Ethan Embry, Charlie Korsmo, Lauren Ambrose, Seth Green, Michelle Brookhurst, Sean Patrick Thomas, Chris Owen, Clea DuVall, Selma Blair, Jenna Elfman, Melissa Joan Hart, Breckin Meyer, voice of Liv Tyler. Prototypical teen movie, made before the success of AMERICAN PIE, deals with Embry's plans to reveal himself before his high school flame Hewitt. Entire film is set during a party and film draws its energy from that. Not a world-beater but good fun for those in the mood. Hewitt does not look gorgeous here, however. Soundtrack is good. Written by the directors.
