Featured review
this movie is brilliant and the humor is up my ally
The title itself was enough for me NOT to see the movie. I was thinking it was going to be another movie that goes nowhere with a stupid plot. Well guess what, that's exactly what this movie did but it had original writing.
The plot of the movie consist of Americans trying to get prepared to beat the Germans in drinking beer. Pretty stupid sounding isn't it? This movie was up my ally in jokes such as laying naked next to a deer with bite marks on its neck and saying the words, "Not again!" That part alone made me laugh for a few minutes.
Give this movie a shot if you like offbeat and stupid humor. You will not know what to expect in this film. This makes my top five list of funniest comedies of the year!
