I think that this movie is the most fun!! It is a great
friend flick and gives all of us hope that there is a yummy
Buzz out there just waiting for us.
P.S. Pudge is not fat!!!

This is a great movie and it brought my best friends and I
together. In fact, "Shag" had such a profound effect on us
that we are planning a trip to Myrtle Beach this summer, or
I'm sorry, I mean Fort Sumpter! Just wanted to share our
viewpoints on the greatest film of all time, next to Gone
With the Wind, Stand By Me, The Goonies, The Breakfast Club,
and anything with Matthew McConneghey, Matt Damon, or the
ultimate hottie, BEN AFFLECK.

great.

This is an AWESOME movie!! It has great humor, it gives
viewers an idea about what goes on daily in the lives of
many teens, and it has a lasting bonding effect amongst your
circle of friends. Over all, it's an EXCELLENT film, with a
great cast! I highly recommend this movie to all. "Great
Job"...I give it a 10!

I absolutely love this movie. I saw it fort he first time
when I was a junior in highschoo, and that was 8 years ago.
i own 2 copies of it, because people always want to borrow
it. i love to hear my mom compare her life in the sixties
to that portrayed in the movie. it is most definately not
the best acting i have seen out of any of the girls, but it
is so fun, you just cant help but to like it!!!!!!!!

I loved Shag. I think it was a very sweet, and thoughtful
film. I loved the actors who played in it, and I think they
played their parts very well. Shag is an excellant movie!!!

I like the movie (SHAG: THE MOVIE). It relates to girls
that come out of high school. Having the four different
types of girls all friends in one group and care about each
other was a great idea. The actors/actress were great and
having it set in a town that most people know about was
great. I loved the movie and the oldies.

I think this movie is absolutely fun! It's such a great
summer flick. I've watched it so many times & it keeps
getting better every time.

This movie is a southern girl's dream...anyone who has
actually been to Myrtle Beach can see how paradoxal this
movie is. Absolutely yummy. And i love to shag :)

This is my all time favorite movie. My sister and I have
watched at least 50 times! It makes me feel so happy! I
would recommend it to anyone. But I'm losing a fortune
renting it so much. If anyone has a copy to sell me, email
me. "Oh Luanne, Don't deny our love!"

I luv this movie to death. I've seen it so many times I
practically know the script by heart. I love how 4 best
friends that are different from one another have so much
fun when they're together. I also like how each girl finds
out what they are really like and the boys each of them
ends up with. This movie is so awesome. It is definately
my all time favorite. I would definately recommend this
movie to anyone. Watching Shag was the most fun.

This has been my favorite movie since I was 4 which is when
it came out.
