The To Do List
Billed as a reverse teen coming-of-age comedy — with a high-school girl trying to lose her virginity — this raunchy sex-fest falls at the bottom of this week’s “to-watch” list. The film is set in 1993 and follows high school nerd and class valedictorian Brandy Klark (Aubrey Plaza) who decides to shed her uptight image before going off to college and, to that end, she assembles a to-do list of all the risque extra-curricular activities she missed out on in high school. It’s rude, crude and just this side of soft-core porn — but without any redeeming qualities. The jokes fall flat, the bits — full of bodily fluids of one kind or another — are disgusting, and there’s a father-daughter repartee just short of incest. A flop at the boxoffice — and for good reason. Extras: Commentary with director Maggie Carey and star Bill Hader; “Maggie Carey: Directing the To-Do List” behind-the-scenes featuretter; “Dirty Mouth,” a featurette highlighting every naughty word or phrase in the film in one raunchy montage; delted scenes; “The Re-do List” (gag reel).
