Please Don't Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain

Age of entitlement! Who gave these mediocre SNL writers the idea that writing comedy is the same as acting in a comedy?

Writing, formulaic and almost scientific these days, and visualizing what the characters say and do, doesn't make one the best choice to act out those characters in front of the camera.

I mean, they know that already. So, why humiliate yourself? Even your SNL's mini movies aren't funny, well maybe one or two, but a 3min sketch is not the same as a 90min movie.

Sometimes, a chef is better complimented if he's not seen by the customers. So, stay in the writers room.

Oh, the movie? It's bad.

The first half of this movie made me laugh out loud. Repeatedly. The last half? More than a little disappointing. In other words, it was only half a good movie...but that is still more than a lot of movies manage to be. There were high highs and lows lows, but the highs were worth it. I laughed more than i groaned (mostly).

Also, my kids loved it. Yet more proof that teenagers always love their generation's SNL movies way more than all the others. This is their Spies Like Us. This is their Three Amigos. You get the idea. Lots of flaws, but lots to love too. These guys find a chemistry that's pretty unique even for this kind of comedy.

This is just an old-fashioned slapstick comedy. If you're not amused by a kick in the balls, this may not be for you.

The acting is terrible, of course, but that's part of the genre. Nothing is taken seriously, it's just a bunch of kids having fun, the story is ridiculous, but a real story would actually be a distraction here. Bowen Yang and Conan O'Brien do a fine job, and the main characters are pretty much the same as what you see on SNL.

The production is actually quite good, this kind of movie is typically done more on the cheap.

So no, an Oscar is not likely, but if you just want to have fun with a bunch of goofballs, you may enjoy this movie.

I love this group. They're always hilarious. I look forward to their skits on SNL every Saturday. While the premise has been done before. It didn't take away from the film. I especially love that Conan O' Brien was in the film. I mostly enjoy their positive, and kind attitudes. To be fair. I love anything that non serious. Even in the most serious moments. The humor is still there. I also love how used John Goodman for the voiceover. Perfect choice if you ask me. Bowen Yang being included just made it that much better! I hope these guys continue to stay friends, and create consistent funny content.

This movie was ok. It caught our attention with Conan, we were hoping for a little more of him but ok. The acting was so-so. It definitely had its funny moments and it was overall a pretty entertaining movie but there were a couple things I could not stop thinking about the whole time. The 3 main actors are the Wish version of the dudes from Workaholics. Also the plot is basically the movie Without A Paddle just rewritten and changed slightly. It obviously has some main differences but it has a similar vibe and same basic idea. Immature young adult men go on a treasure hunt based on a local urban myth. It is worth the watch though.
