Buddymoon

I can't recommend this film enough.

From beginning to end this film brings the laughs and the love. Yes it's silly. Yes it won't appeal to everyone, but if you want to lose yourself for an hour or so and have a couple of giggles along the way, Buddymoon is for you.

Flula is here to brighten your day!

I laughed through the entire movie.

But the main reason to watch this is Flula Borg. He steals every scene he's in. Just listening to him butcher English is hysterical enough, but the man is naturally funny.

Everything else about the movie is just fine. I enjoyed the photography, and the forest setting was great. The music was better than decent, but speaking of music, make sure you stay through the titles. Flula has a surprise for you.

I really enjoyed this very natural comedy and I think you'll love it as much as I did.

You can't help but feel good watching this movie. I think I had a constant smile on my face. A heartbroken, struggling actor gets dumped by his fiancé and in effort to cheer him up, his best friend decides to take him on the outdoors adventure he had planned with the ex for their honeymoon (hence the title, "Buddymoon"). The chemistry between these two friends is awesome and some of the scenes were hysterical. There were a few serious moments, but all in all, this is a really funny movie and the two leads are incredibly likable. They meet some interesting characters along their way. This movie will be equally enjoyed by both men and women.

The movie is not violent,thrilling,sex-laced,vulgar or complex. It's not about time warps, zombies or wizards and it's easy to view. However, as it's billed as a comedy, I thought I was in for an evening of laughter.I was pleased with the positives and disappointed with the negatives. Yes, there were some funny scenes which elicited a few laughs but it won't have audiences rolling in the aisles.It's an uplifting film because it communicates decent human values. It demonstrates that there is nothing wrong with men having feelings of friendship with other men.It's not about LGBT values in that respect. Parents should know:there is only one discernible vulgarity in this film,and it's in German so it really doesn't count.No nudity,no violence,only alcohol.Extraordinary for Hollywood these days. Also,if you do not teach tolerance and acceptance of LGBT values to your kids,consider: tolerant,nay,open-armed responses from several characters who misunderstand the sexual orientation and marriage status of the two main characters are offered as 'normal'. For the adults that understand the situation though, it's just comic relief...

I thought this indie offered a nice change of pace from the usual movie fare of superheroes, crime capers, and heavy dramas, The humor, in my opinion, "won't knock you off your seat" but there are laughs here, some charm, and some wonderful cinematography of the Oregon woods.

David Giuntoli stars as David, who's just been jilted by his fiancé Frankie (Jeanne Syquia) right before their wedding date, and he's holed up in his house feeling quite depressed. Flula Borg co-stars as Flula, who's David's best friend (they're actually friends in real life). Flula convinces David to go on his planned honeymoon hike with him anyway, which will help ease the blues once he's outdoors.

The rapport between the two, who are polar opposites in personality, works well with Flula being wildly gregarious while David is reserved and introspective. The remainder of the movie will track their adventures through the Oregon woods, meeting various characters along the way and playing effective pranks on each other. The film also effectively intersperses segments of the actual journal of explorer William Clark, who in 1805 traversed the same areas in the famous Lewis & Clark Expedition.

Overall, not everything in this movie works but as mentioned it offers a change of pace from the usual fare and for its minimal 1 hr. and 19 min. running time it was a decent watch for me.
