Rating: Summary: **Road Trip - A good comedy** Review: Road Trip is one good comedy. People say it measures up to American Pie, I think NOT! Anyway, let me first explain to you what the film is about...
The film is how a man named Barry (Tom Green) tells a true story to a group of people. the story is about how four teens (Meyer, Qualls, Scott, Costanzo) go on a road trip to save one of their life-long love relationships. What they go through to save themselves, is chaos. Throughout the whole movie, every so often a funny line or scene is dispensed. It wasn't as funny as I wanted it to be, and the plot was kind of lame.
I also want to say, that there was nudity in this movie. Some of the nude scenes were not needed. Although, I believe those scenes attracted more business.
Overall, the movie is funny. I didn't laugh too much though. The plot outline was also weak. However, it's worth seeing... Tom Green to great! I would only pay $5.00 to see this movie, out of $7.50.
Rating: Summary: Funny, but I'll still take Dumb and Dumber over this anyday Review: I stayed away from Road Trip as long as humanly possible for reasons I'm still not sure of. RT was definitely overhyped as being "hilarious" and "the funniest movie of the year." I finally decided to rent it because I figured anything with Tom Green in it had to have some laughs. I was right, RT is without a doubt a funny movie, although Green is not in it for the better part of the film. The other characters are pretty damn funny, especially Seann William Scott who is hilarious. Typical road movie fare with some funny detours along the way (Frat house scene and Andy Dick in the motel). Tom Green is his usual self, putting live mice into his mouth and mooning the camera. The funniest thing about RT is Barry's (Tom Green) obsession with feeding his friends pet snake. The french toast scene in the diner is also really good, and Seann William Scott's dancing to "I Wanna Rock" on the bus is great. I'm glad I rented RT, but I still think Dumb and Dumber is the ultimate comedy road trip movie.
Rating: Summary: Road trip to somewhere Review: I thought this move would be as stupid as American Pie. However I was wrong. I was laughing so hard. I saw the unrated version to see if it would be different then the rated version. (...) Come on give me a break! The story line and the comedy scenes were funny though. We could have done without the nude women, all the time. I would buy this movie anyway.
Rating: Summary: EUROTRIP IS MUCH BETTER Review: The best thing that makes this movie deserve just 3 stars is some of the music. This movie is barely a gag, and it is OKAY, but some of the songs played is what I like best about it. The song by the Eels and that "I WANNA ROCK" song, especially!!
Rating: Summary: "i boinked her!" Review: This movie is the perfect college comedy! I have watched it over a 100 times and never got bored! Definitely an entertainer!
Rating: Summary: I WANNA ROCK... Review: screams the boys on the handicapped bus that one of them stole.
If occasional raunchy humor does not make you wince, then there are plenty of laughs here along with "the greatest story ever told" of young college buddies racing across country to intercept a rogue videotape sent by mistake. DJ Qualls is very very good here in a breakout performance as the geek with low self esteem. Seann (E.L.) is hugely funny. Tom Green's actually unbelievably funny in a strange way! Considering this film, the cast is perfect.
Rating: Summary: AMAZING ROAD TRIP! Review: Definitely an OUTSTANDING COMEDY, Road Trip, brings to the screen exactly what the title implies: the story of four college students who end up driving from NY to TX in an effort to prevent a mailed videotape from reaching one of the guy's girlfriend. Along the way, they get into all sorts of trouble resulting in one of the best movies in recent years!
Breckin Meyer, Seann Willliam Scott, and the rest of the cast, have truly outdone themselves with their performances, which are exceptional to say the least. All the actors, without exceptions, give it their 100% and it really shows (the chemistry is AMAZING)! Very well written and very well presented, the movie is without a doubt guaranteed to provide more than just a few laughs. Road Trip is simple enough, but does a great job of describing people's (in this case college kids') every day lives and the problems they face. It just goes to show that simplicity is often far better than complexity, when trying to present issues of a human nature.
Strongly recommended along with Old School, the Girl Next Door and of course (!!!) the American Pie trilogy.
In short, Road Trip is a movie definitely worth watching, and actually one to seriously consider adding to your collection!
Rating: Summary: Very funny... Review: This movie was actually in our screenwriters' class text book...that whole Aristotle approach to movie-making...it was used as a good example that followed the structure as it was supposed to. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. And one of the ladies I work with knows one of the actresses in the shower scene. LOL But seriously, I really enjoyed the humor and the music in this movie and I think the plotline was good, too.
Rating: Summary: "I'll give you boys the grand tour!" Review: To start off, I'm not even in college or even 15, and I loved this movie. I've seen old school and all the other same genre movies but this is my favorite right now. The story is told through Barry (Tom Green) giving a tour of Ithaca University. His complete lack of knowledge and smart-alec attitude make for some very funny moments some of which are in the deleted scenes on this dvd. After having the tourists "take a good look at this tree" and informing them that the 1954 on the library is "the address, ok? Wise a**." he starts the story of Josh (his roomate) going out with the same girl since he was five then them going to different colleges then josh cheating on her on video tape then the tapes gets accidently sent to her "It was a journey that would change their lives forever, the end" Tom Green says before starting the main part of the movie. I won't give away the ridiculus but funny ending though there are some parts which had my friends and I practically laughing non-stop. One of which is throughout the movie it switches back to Barry (Tom Green) feeding Mitch (Boa Constrictor) a mouse. He's uncontrollably obseessed with 'feeding time' and at one point says "he tastes good Mitch, he tastes good" Then puts the mouse in his mouth right before having the boa constricor swallow half of his arm. He starts yelling and swinging his arm around then the boa constrictor flys off and hits this professor in the neck. I won't give away the scene where they stay at Barry's grandparents house though I will says it involves marajuana, talking dogs, and medicine. Its been a long time since i've laughed this hard and that was probably when I first saw Old School (Will Ferrel) and Blazing Saddles (Mel Brooks) which are also really funny movies. I have to say though Tom Greene and Sean William Scott often steal the show with 'feeding time' and "what? for this? Bob Hope can jump this bridge in a wheelchair so we can do it in a car"
This movie isn't alot different from the rated version but it has some worth owning deleted scenes and trailers.
This movie isn't really a 'family movie' but it will appeal to anyone who likes sometimes outrageous and bizarre humor. There is nothing too over the top that you wouldn't see in an R movie. Well then again Barry's grandparents...
This is a great movie and I hope this review will influence your decision. But parents, I reccomend watching this before or with your kids because there are some scenes that might be deemed inappropriate but it all depends on how easily you can be offended.
I could go on for about a page and and half talking about this movie but i've got other stuff to do. So take my advice, rent or buy it(I think its worth buying) relax and watch this keeping in mind to view it as a comedy and enjoy some of the craziest scenes ever to glaze the often somewhat smudged screen of the fabulous world of comedy.
Rating: Summary: THIS WAS A COOL AND FUNNY MOVIE Review: IN THIS TEEN COMEDY, A UNIVERSITY STUDENT HAS SEX WITH A GIRL ON TAPE AND HE ACCIDENTALLY MAILS THAT TAPE TO HIS GIRLFRIEND! NOW HE MUST GO TO HIS GIRL'S UNIVERSITY AND TRY TO STOP THE DELIVERY OF THE TAPE BEFORE HIS GIRLFRIEND FINDS OUT ABOUT IT. HAS A GOOD PLOT AND IT'S HILLARIOUS. TOM GREEN STEALS THE SHOW AS THE DIMWITTED BARRY MANILOW. THIS WAS A GOOD MOVIE AND IT SHOULD APPEAL TO ALL THOSE WHO LIKE TO LAUGH A LOT.
