A decent movie depicting a high school group of girls about to venture off on different paths. One reviewer wondered why it was called Dude if it's about a group of girls. They say "dude" all the time, perhaps the reviewer missed that?? Who cares about the title of the movie. A lot of people upset about the rape scene, but I think it's one of the more accurate portrayals of casual rape I've seen. Stuff like this happens to teen girls all the time. They know that it wasn't right, feel angry, but don't say anything because they "sort of" consented in the beginning. I think a lot of young girls could relate to this scene actually. The acting is good. The girls smoke pot and drink and do what typical teenagers do. Anyone who hates this probably had no life in high school, so has a hard time relating. It's not an award winner and I wouldn't watch it a second time, but it's a fine teen movie for a Sunday afternoon.
