In case you missed it … ‘One, Two, Many’

You can go through at most big chain video stores and see about 15 different ‘National Lampoon Presents’ movies and a couple of things you are guaranteed: they are typically really Low Budget, and the comedy will be hit or miss. As of 2007 National Lampoon decided to start putting out its own movies again, and this is one of the first that it has done. I was actually quite surprised by it.

The movie stars John Melendez(who also wrote, and produced) which you probably only know him as Stuttering John from the Howard Stern Show. Well this is his first major gig as an actor and I must say I was pretty impressed with him. Some of the jokes were a little cheesy, but i think they were meant to be.

The story is centered around Thomas(Melendez) who is an out of work actor trying to find the right woman. The only problem is he definition of said woman. He wants to find one that doesnt have a problem bringing other women to bed. As most guys already know, this isnt usually an option. You watch him go on date after date with women and doesnt find the one that fits the mold. He gets a temporary acting gig where he meets Jennifer(played by the sexy Bellamy Young) and he explains what he is looking for to her. She seemed into it, and they launched a relationship. Eventually they try out their first threesome with a high priced prostitute, which goes awry when he has to make several trips to the ATM. Eventually they meet a singer and the threesome was successful, but with anything it was too good to be true. Jennifer’s insecurities come out and things hit the fan.

The movie has its moments, especially scenes with Jefferey Ross, who plays the best friend role. Its definitely worth renting if you are in the mood for a sexy, low budget-ish comedy, I wish it had gotten more press. I guess thats the case with any National Lampoon movie as of late.
