Brandy Klark (Aubrey Plaza) is an intellectually successful but socially inept student at an Idaho high school in 1993. This differentiates her starkly from her popular sister Amber (Rachel Bilson), who mocks Brandy for still being a virgin. Brandy protests that she almost slept with an older guy named Rusty (Scott Porter) once, but quickly realises that she will have to obtain greater experience soon or face further ridicule. She duly sets out to seduce Rusty by taking a job as a lifeguard at the pool where he works but faces several obstacles along the way. Can her fellow socially awkward friend Cameron (Johnny Simmons) help her out? (Sony Pictures Home Entertainment)

I didn't have high hopes for this comedy, but in the end, I was pleasantly surprised by something I really didn't expect. I laughed out loud at it, mostly due to the awkwardness of some jokes, but I still enjoyed it. An intellectual girl who, before leaving for college, wants to become a woman, which means she wants to try everything and reach the top. The actress for the main role was perfectly chosen, and in the end, great actors for the other roles too. Agent Coulson's presence pleasantly surprised me. The story isn't that original; it's still about the girl choosing the wrong person, but the other elements work well. "You jerked me off! Does that mean nothing?" "Enjoy your penis." "Do you have a dick under that poncho?" Great catchphrases! I was going to give it a lower rating, but this just blew me away.
