A selfish cad (Matt Czuchry) jeopardizes his relationship with two close friends after throwing one of them a particularly decadent bachelor party, getting his invite to the nuptials revoked.
If you are a fan of the book, you are bound to be pleased; no pun intended. The film takes bathroom humor to the next level and will bring you to tears from laughter.
This movie doesn't know the first thing about comic timing. It's tone deaf, tasteless and irrational material that has all the misplaced arrogance of a rebellious high school drop-out who thinks he or she is too ahead of the game for people to understand.
Even the least discerning fans of lowbrow comedy will need to start digging in order to reach the level achieved by this American indie comedy about three Texan friends on a pre-wedding bender.
Warning: moviegoers with no pre-existing predisposition to find other people's humiliation -- usually women's -- hilarious may feel the need for a shower afterwards.
Might be the most hypocritical feature in the history of film as well as the history of hypocrisy, and along with serving beer, I hope they show I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell in hell.
