Films / Trojan War

Trojan War takes is a film which by all comparisons could have inspired Can't Hardly Wait. All the characters are there: the love struck fool; the beautiful girl; the college jock, etc..

That is where the similarities do end (thank god). The basic premise of the film is that Brad (Will Freidle), besottled with the most popular girl in the school, Brooke, (sound familiar?), somehow gets invited over to her house to 'study'. What ensues is a rollercoaster of misfortune, set around Brad trying to get a mere condom to fulfill is dreams.

In one night the luckless hero gets his Dad's Jaguar stolen by a gang, wins a Latin dance competition (and the heart of a less than subtle women), breaks into his school, fights with a psychotic janitor, becomes a hostage and oh yes, doesn't get his condom..

If it wasn't for Lee Majors and his 6 million dollar condoms, Brad's night would have ended in tradegy..

What makes this film a little more interesting, if not a little predictable, is Brad's best friend also being in love with him. Leah (Jennifer Love Hewitt) has for a long time had feelings for Brad, but has been to scared to say anything.

Will Brad get the college beauty, or will he realise the only girl for him is Leah?

The film is pretty much your average teen film with quite a few laughs, and some interesting camera work in a few scenes.

Rating: 3/5
