Search Party

I was so surprised with the amount of funny bits on the beginning of the movie.. the idea of three friends always looking out for each other and always stepping in any little thing is not that new but the execution is so fine and fresh and the comedy is shining in abundance, the plot grows smoothly and peaks properly in obvious clear way. The screenplay was really connected and funny,, it was written by Andrew Waller and Mike Gagerman as their second script ever but when you mention it was co-written and directed by Scot Armstrong knowing he co-wrote "The Hangover Part II" that would give you a hint ;)

As for the cast; gosh they were all Hilarious, T.J. Miller is the loose cool guy who doesn't care, Thomas Middleditch is the paranoid always in trouble Naked and being bossed around ;) and Adam Pally is the guy who have a life but it gets ruined by his other friends.. it felt a lot like the cheap version of The Hangover with a less payed guys .-. Adding to the cast, Jason Mantzoukas and J.B. Smoove was a really nice touch.

Overall,, it was really enjoyable as a comedy movie ,, its catchy i laughed , i think that's what matters.

I just wanna join the people who think this movie is awesome. If you like romantic comedies with ridiculous antics, this film will have you smiling and laughing in no time. It's better than any Sandler or Farrell movie recently released. Anyone who gives this less than a 7 star rating was probably not in the mood for this type of movie. Last night I watched The Hateful Eight and although I'm a massive Tarantino geek I actually enjoyed this more. I might be a little bias as I also love Silicon Valley, but we can't always be in the mood to watch a cinematic master peace. Sometimes we just want to be transported away to a place that doesn't take itself to seriously.

Movie would have been lot better, if the writers thought about it with some common sense. Some scenes were hilarious, but some dumb and dumber. Not a total waste of time, but almost there.

Search Party is welcome as a raucous Hangover/Road Trip-style comedy. But it is not a very good one, though, to be fair, it's not terrible either. The three main actors try very hard to raise laughs, and are reasonably winsome, and there are quite a few laughs dotted throughout the movie and some really funny moments. T.J. Miller and Adam Pally star as early-30somethings Jason and Evan who set off for Mexico to reunite their buddy Nardo (Thomas Middleditch) with Tracy (Shannon Woodward), the woman he was going to marry until Jason disrupted the wedding. Nardo is naked and in a tight situation until he finds a pair of tights, and then he's in a tights situation. At least till he's back naked again. http://derekwinnert.com/search-party-2105-movie-review/

Being a B movie, it is not that bad. It is eligible for some minor exceptions and if you consider that while watching it, then it does not disappoint much. Yes, there are many similar films like this, but what makes it somewhat special is that it is quite freely explored its contents without stressing out on detailing everything. I meant it was a simple road adventure film and you would feel it very familiar yet you will realise that it is not worth criticizing it.

The actors were decent, but expected much better. Directed by a newcomer who had written many screenplays similar this theme. Like I said it was quite predictable, at a time decently enjoyable with a few laughs now and then, especially that Mexican police station scene was hilarious. You might get a million reasons to dislike it, but you achieve nothing from it. According to me it was surely a decent watch, hence not a must see, but if you do, then don't take it seriously, try to have fun within its limits.
