Writer-director Kevin Smith (Tusk) presents his most personal film to date with this coming-of-age story— set in the summer of 1986 — that follows three sixteen-year-old friends who spend their Saturdays sneaking into movies at the local cineplex.

When one of the guys invites the girl of his dreams to see an R-rated film, all hilarity breaks loose, as a self-important theater manager (Ken Jeong, Pain & Gain) and teen rivalries interfere with his best-laid plans.

Justin Long (Going the Distance), Rosario Dawson (Fire with Fire), Jason Biggs (American Reunion), and more contribute outrageous characters to this poignant comic valentine to moviegoing and the youth of the ’80s.

Bonus features on this baby include an audio commentary from writer/director Smith, a making-of featurette, and a trailer!
