Party of the Year is a thoughtful made comedy about two high school boys eager to become popular, to the point of lying about a party guest by a popular influencer. In their struggles to make it happen, something off the wall occurs. You'll have to watch it to find out what.

Unpopular high schoolers, Jeremy and Eddie want to change their status and are willing to do almost anything to reverse their unpopularity including lying about YouTube star, Lady Crimson, coming to their party!

This truly made me laugh. It's well made with good video, audio and editing. Plus, the young actors are well cast. The momentum of the film grows from the opening scene when Jeremy and Eddie first realize that they're losers and have to do something about it. I'm impressed by the fast dialogue that's delivered really well, especially from Jacob Berland and Lawson Wright who play Jeremy and Eddie. The turning point is "the big lie" when Jeremy tells the other kids that a big YouTube star is coming to their party. It's bound to either make them super popular or be a complete bust! I love the shot in the living room with a photo of Jack Nicholson on the wall behind the guys, as they are busted for their "big lie." Then, miracle of miracle, guess who makes an appearance and their fate is sealed?

The film's message is to "go big or don't go" - seriously, the lie thing could have really taken them below ground, but instead, luck was on their side.

I give Party of the Year 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!

Jeremy and Eddie are not the most popular kids in school... but that's all about to change if they're able to get uber famous YouTube star Lady Crimson to come to their party! They only get one shot to throw the PARTY OF THE YEAR!
