Wonderful character development!
An Exercise In Nonsense
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
I want to start saying that this is really the worst of all movies i ever saw. It is really as bad as it gets.Put some young people on holiday and let them get drunk and have sex is a terrible story. But how it is done is even more terrible. The young people are so stupid and it looks so setup (one is cool, other not but in the end the uncool guy gets the girls, thats so cliché and stupid).This movie has nothing to offer, even not the sex were you might have been looking for ;). Nothing "sexy" or to see about it.Well, if you want to see this movie, do it for the reason to give it the lowest mark there is: a 1, AWFULLY BAD.
It was bound to happen, the TV reality craze bled into the film industry, but did it have to be so bad? Shot in ten days then rushed into theaters a few weeks later it was then rushed into video stores where it destroyed countless more minds, this film has to have the fastest turn around time on record. Hey I've actually said something nice about it...amazing.The premise is that a bunch of hand picked jerks are flown to Mexico for spring break and we get to watch them behave badly. I'm sure it sounded good on paper but the people we are given to watch are such awful people we don't care. Any promised titillation and truly over the top behavior isn't there so this comes across as rather tame considering the promises the film makers made.I kept watching this wondering why I was watching it since I hated the people and their behavior. Finally after a just over half an hour of this non-event I turned it off. I suggest that you do better than I did and never turn it on.
Let me tell you one thing, at first i was excited cause MTV gonna do a movie of THE REAL CANCUN, and for the people that went there,(like me), that was a fiasco. I was excited cause all my friends when i arrive from there, was asking me about CANCUN, when they saw this movie they dont even believe me a word of what i said. This thing was a waste of money, and a waste of time cause isnt that "real" as i was expected tha this movie gonna be. That was like an episode of the real world, and i dont want to saw that, i want to see what i have done there i just want to live again all those moment in cancun, but all i get was guys getting drunk, women figthing for men, and none of reality. A typical episode of the series REAL WORLD.
The Real Cancun may not be a Oscar winner, but it made its point. The Real Cancun was actually quite a good movie. In the end you wanted Allan to get some! You actually felt for these people. And no Im not some middle aged man staring at the little girls, I'm in the same age bracket as the Actors. I am not a fan of reality shows, but this one was definately worth the look.
