Bad Trip

This could had gone so wrong, but it turned out to be very funny.

Basically many pranks are stitched together using a buddy trip plot. And the whole setup is just blind, stupid entertainment. Everybody knows the whole thing is stupid and vulgar, but it's about going along with stupidity and absurdity of all this. We can laugh hard knowing that the whole thing is stupid fun. It's not about the best joke line or the best prank, it's the whole setup!

Any valid criticism would be how they managed to pull off without getting recognised. Even one person recognising and raising their voice can kill the whole shot.

Also comparison with Bruno, Borat is not reasonable as they had social messages at underplay with a specific topic. Here it's just about entertainment only, nothing to reveal about the people or society.

I am believing the whole thing is real. Hidden camera shoots + pre shot scenes of the actors.

The actors have all done a great job. Overall just stupid, great fun. Just switch off your brains and watch.

I fully realize that some of this comedy is so basic and childish. But it made me laugh. So many times I thought to myself "they're so stupid" while simultaneously cracking up. Similar to (but nowhere close to) the Sacha Baron Cohen stuff and Nathan For You. I had a good time with this movie. (1 viewing, 1/24/2022)

If you liked the style of humor in The Eric Andre Show you will thoroughly enjoy the movie. The plot is simple but doesn't detract from the humor in any way. It is a must watch if you like Eric and his style of humor.

I absolutely love The Eric Andre Show and I love movies likes that, where it's hidden cameras and everything, it's a very underrated Genre of movies, back in the day there were the awesome Jackass movies and some time ago Bad Grandpa, it's a bummer they don't make them anymore. Thankfully this movie absolutely delivers, it's hilarious and fast paced. Eric and Lil Rel are great together, especially Eric Andre, this man is a legend. If you like movies with this style and you liked Bad Grabdpa and you like hidden camera prank movies then definitely watch this one. An actual funny movie for a change.
