Oh boy.. This movie is so mediocre I don't really know what exactly to write about it.
I think it's easier to write what it's not:
It's not very entertaining. It's not original. And there's not one character in the whole movie I cared about.
Kind of reminds me of a certain reality TV show on MTV, but without any interesting people. It just drags on and on and I could hardly wait for it to end. The only thing that kept me from switching it off was Jennifer Lyons (c:
I thought a long time about this movie to find one good thing to say about it. What I liked was the reminder not to judge a person by the first impression you get (as Holly did when she accused Nicole) which earns it a score of 2 out of 10 instead of a 1.

The movie is aiming at American Pie fans, by the lag lines, by the cover that has an half naked chicks on it(and surprisingly not the actor playing Reno... or the one playing Chad) that is not even in the movie.. The title WILD roomies and the back cover which feature the stripper at the beginning of the movie... All of this make you think this another of those "teen comedy" and to be honest, even tough they are very light , i love those.
But this movie is not, minus a few nude shots and 2-3 jokes, this is the kind of movie that i would see my mother watch... Its what i call a chick flick as it goes on emotions, relationship and i dunno... as a 28 years old male, it just didn't hook me up.
I was more interested in Chad and Nicole than in the 2 main protagonist and i wanted to see what THEY where doing outside there home...
I will add that if you are a french speaker, this movie is part of the VVS line when they used atrocious dubbing that sounded like Saturday night midnight cable softcore movies... Its not good... Thanks fully they changed that over the years...

I had high hopes for this one after reading the back of the DVD, "In the spirit of American Pie and Animal House..." After suffering through this I realized I just blew $2.50 to rent it. This movie started out slow and just got slower... brief and fleeting moments of levity proved that it was in the spirit of American Pie if you mean "spirit" as a dead thing. not very entertaining or fun! Don't be fooled like i was and expect anything barely watchable because this movie will depress you more than entertain you. "Need to fill up three more lines for this stupid movie that doesn't deserve the effort... what a stupid piece of ignorant crud. This movie wreaked, even the brief nudity sucked!
I have to agree with all those people that say, this movie isn't a great one. However a lot of people, I think, don't like this movie for the lack of magic. It's obvious this wasn't a big studio production, no mentionable special effects, the filming has a bit of a cheap look and most of all the ending is more down to earth than Hollywood would dare give us. But for me, the end is just the thing that makes up for a lot of the flaws in this film.
Like i said, the movie is not great, boring even at some times (I caught myself checking my watch once or twice), the characters just live their lives with all its ups and downs, they fight, make up and then jealousy makes them fight some more, but this is like real life and it's obvious they do love each other. The end of the story is equally real, something happens which calls for emotional decision making, and although the viewer may not agree (Because IT has all the facts of the story), sadly this is how things usually turn out.
5 points out of 10 for the movie, and one extra just for the ending.

This must have been one of the worst movies I have ever seen. EVER. The characters are exaggerated to the point that they flaws become really annoying, the acting is sub par and the ending most definitely is the worst ever. I mean, they could at least make the characters stay in their roles through the end of the movie... the Girlfriend who was very reluctant to have oral sex with his future husband then gets to do a threesome with their 2 roommates when she was supposed to be enraged by their actions? WTF, where did this come from?
I don't recommend this movie to anyone except... well, except no one. I just don't recommend it.
