Plot: 5 teams get together to take on Leon's the great all-nighter which is a scavenger hunt and clue hunt run through out Los Angles California. In the beginning all teams don't want to compete but with a little manipulation by Leon and his team all teams become interested in the big prize at the end.
 The opening of this movie looks like an opening for a  70's and early 80's porn movie, but as we watch the five min introduction and see the cast and characters we know it isn't a porn movie (especially since it is a Disney movie) and that there is a purpose for where these girls on roller skates are delivering there invites.
 Each team is composed of a kind o click that is on the college campus. The Popular/rich kids, Jocks, Nerds, Feminine team and Preppy kids. Each team has a hatred for each one of the other teams that are mixed up in the game so that gives them the drive to want to beat each other.
   During the beginning of the movie the yellow teams little brother Michael (Michael J fox) is seen trying to hop a bus and run off. He has always been getting in the way of things so his brother thinks but Michael ends u teaching his brother how important he means to him and vice versa (classic Disney ploy).
  From places like a beer brewery to an arcade and even the famous Bonaventure hotel the movie is full of laughs and will make any night a family movie night
