We’ve seen so many “prom gone wrong” films it’s hard to believe “Prom Pact” can be so refreshing.
But, in an era when everything seems to be built on misunderstanding, it’s a straightforward, unrelenting comedy about friendship.Ben Plunkett and Mandy Yang are besties who exist on the fringes of North Seattle High School. They tell each other everything and try to live life outside the shadow of the Everests – the students who tower over others.
The two talk incessantly and agree to go to prom together just because there aren’t other prospects. Then she realizes the school’s golden boy, Graham Lansing, could help her get the recommendation she needs to get into Harvard. Mandy worms her way into his life, becomes his tutor and seems set. Because the school has an ‘80s prom theme, there are “promposals” that reference dozens of ‘80s films in fun ways. Look in the background of scenes and you’ll find ones that aren’t as obvious as “Ghostbusters” or “Back to the Future.”
Blake Draper, as the hunky Graham Lansing, probably comes closest to filling those retro John Hughes shoes but even he has moments of doubt. When Mandy discovers the source of his insecurity, she erases those preconceived notions and finds the hidden gem. When he teaches her the finer points of basketball , she becomes a different person.
