Movie Description
ORANGE COUNTY is a teen comedy that, along with goofy lowbrow fun, offers a surprising amount of wit and heart. Colin Hanks (son of Tom Hanks) stars as Shaun, a carefree California surfer dude who loses a friend to a tsunami. Shaun is contemplating his life when he finds a brilliant novel buried in the sand. He reads it and decides to become a writer himself, and study with the author, who teaches at Stanford. He's eager to leave Orange County, where he lives with his clingy alcoholic mother (Catherine O'Hara) and his burnout brother Lance (a brilliantly debauched Jack Black). When Shaun's guidance counselor (Lily Tomlin) sends the wrong transcript to Stanford, Shaun needs all the help he can get from his seemingly hopeless family to salvage his dream. ORANGE COUNTY was directed by Jake Kasdan (Lawrence Kasdan's son) and written by Mike White (CHUCK & BUCK) who also plays Shaun's illiterate English teacher. Schuyler Fisk (Sissy Spacek's daughter) plays Ashley, Shaun's animal-loving girlfriend, and she and Hanks make an attractive and sympathetic pair. While all kinds of insanity (including hilarious turns by Black, O'Hara, and Harold Ramis) spins around them, the young and dynamic couple remain the soulful center of the film.

    Orange County presents a comical, feel-good movie, with good cast choices. Good to share a laugh with friends.

    I watched the movie Orange County with a few of my friends. We agreed that it is a good movie if you want something to put you in a laughable mood, but we didn't quite appreciate the cliche teen life it portrays. The movie focuses on late teen years, which seemed much too cliche to be appreciated by most fellow teens. Situations presented in this movie are very uncommon. If the script writer wanted to make the characters' lives look average, he didn't succeed.
    Some situations in Orange County are hard to believe, for example the school counseller mixing up the names and grade point averages of students, or someone breaking into the Dean's office just to be accepted in the college. These situations are highly improbable, but never-the-less quite hilarious when they are presented in Orange County.

    If you are looking for a funny movie or a movie to laugh at with friends, Orange County isn't a bad pick. It's fit for a Friday night, and suitable for children 13 and older.

    This was quite a funny movie, all there was a lot of sentimental scenes as well. would recomend as a good party film, but it is no blockbuster so you would probably only watch it once.
