Fun Size is a high school comedy about two girls hoping to go to a Halloween party, only to have to babysit one of the girl’s younger brothers instead. He gets lost and they have to find him.
To be clear, the two girls are bitches at the start of the film. They want the hot guy and to go to the cool parties blah blah blah, and they use their feminine wiles to trick some nerdy dudes into helping them and driving them around to find the younger brother, who is dressed like Spider-Man.
Much like McLovin’ in Superbad, the little brother ends up doing all sorts of badass stuff dances with girls n’ stuff.
And he punches Johnny Knoxville in the nuts. Sounds good.
No doubt by the end of the film the two girls will learn to be less superficial and the super hot Victoria Justice will fall in love with a nerd. Such is the pattern for these fantasies.
The Movie Name Goes Here
Josh Schwartz, who created The O.C., Gossip Girl and Chuck, is the director of Fun Size, and the script was written by Colbert Report writer Max Werner.

What’s Good About It?
For some odd reason I really liked The OC for a season, and the first couple seasons of Chuck.
Then I hated them with a passion because they were horribly written.
What’s Bad About It?
If Fun Size follows Schwartz’s pattern it’ll create likeable characters then never develop quality plots with proper pacing. And we’ll suffer for it.
Our Clever Prediction
I don’t know about Fun Size. It doesn’t look half bad, but I can’t say for certain that it’ll bomb too badly. Hopefully it’ll be good.
