Caspar is the obvious object of affection of Kaylee (played with some charm by Madison Iseman), a typical knockout blonde beauty who used to date the popular high school jerk, Tucker (Josh Leyva). Like all 18-year olds guys, they simply want to lose their virginity, and specifically to American girls, before leaving the States. They are foreign exchange students attending an American high school and staying with the same American family. It is the last day of school, and the last day before they return back to their respective homelands. But here ya go: Olajide Olatunji (also known as KSI) plays Duncan, while Caspar Lee plays Jack. I hesitate to give details on the plot, if only because its sheer clumsiness and predictability are a side element which make this train-wreck slightly watchable. To make myself clear: I did not like this film. It pretty much exemplifies the standard of wit and humor found in the main feature.
However, 'Laid in America' is among the very worst comedies I've ever seen, making other travesties like 'Couch Trip' seem like pure genius Even the title is obvious and cliched, a pun which has been the subject of many porn titles (or so I'm told) and not faring much better when it comes to creative content. It is a prime example of how rotten screenplays and even worse actors should not be put into production and further pollute an already creatively bankrupt Hollywood machine. 'Laid in America' has apparently been produced direct-to-video, though how they managed to find release under the Universal Studios banner is an incredible mystery. I've sat through more than my unfair share of bad films over the years, especially those which have been saved from obscurity through Netflix and other on-line providers willing to show anything to anybody.

The movie was written and directed by Sam Millman and Peter Vass, both of whom appear competent and certainly energetic (as revealed in the "Behind the Scenes" featurette) but fail to deliver anything original. 'Laid in America' adds nothing new or novel to this genre, and even worse, is unable to rise above the most basic of amateur level.
When it comes to lowbrow, teenage sex comedies, even the most novice viewer has probably seen it all in movies like 'American Pie,' 'Porky's,' and 'Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle' and other trashy films aimed at the lowest common denominator for R-rated fare.
