Plot: Some cast and crew from NBC's highly acclaimed, little-seen series Freaks and Geeks reunite for this teen comedy that also marks the first starring role for Tom Hanks' son, Colin. The younger Hanks plays Shaun Brumder, a high schooler eager to propel himself out of the land of surf bums and ranch homes to which the film's title refers. He's had his sights set on Stanford ever since he read the works of professor Marcus Skinner (Kevin Kline), and his transcript is stellar enough to gain him admission. Shaun is understandably furious, then, when he receives a rejection letter in the mail; after some detective work on his part, he realizes that his flaky counselor (Lily Tomlin) mistakenly sent the university the wrong papers. It's up to him to get to Stanford within 24 hours to set the record straight -- literally -- and he enlists the help of his slacker brother Lance (Jack Black) to do so. Orange County co-stars Catharine O'Hara and John Lithgow as Shaun and Lance's slightly unhinged parents; the film was directed by Jake Kasdan and written by Mike White, both of whom contributed to several episodes of Freaks and Geeks. ~ Michael Hastings, All Movie Guide

Shaun goes through a metamorphosis his senior year in high school, from an x-treme adventure surfer dude in a dysfunctional family, to an aspiring writer... in a dysfunctional family.

One of his aspirations falls flat, however, when his school mistakenly sends another student's transcript along with his application to Stanford University. It crushes him when he is rejected, but the next 24 hours is a wild ride as he, along with family and friends, tries to reverse that decision. In the end... well, for the end, you need to watch the movie!

This movie has some great actors in both major and minor roles: Jack Black, Kevin Klein, Lily Tomlin, Catherine O'Hara, Ben Stiller, and John Lithgow. Colin Hanks plays the poor Shaun with Schuyler Fisk as the helpful girlfriend.

A movie for a pleasant evening among friends! Afterwards, go surfing, or blow something up!
