Drunk Wedding

Yeah, the plot it's not big deal, and the camera shakes, but the humor is neat, dark, naughty, and shocking. With all that movies with stupid jokes, i'm very glad to have seen this masterpiece. Also i like the characters, they aren't that basic as might seem. The movie is basic, but if you like dark and stupid humor, this movie have a lot of that.

It can be hard to review a movie that has absolutely no point to it - but I'll try in order to help prevent people wasting their limited time on this earth from sitting through this.

A more unpleasant bunch of characters you couldn't hope to meet. Loud, crass, exhibitionist, self indulgent and idiotic they are everyone's nightmare on holiday.....they think partying involves shouting at each other louder than everyone else and screeching at hand held cameras whilst pulling stupid faces.

This isn't amusing and at points you can almost sense one or two of the casts discomfort as they try and force wild laughter and carry out juvenile antics on their fellow travellers.

The handheld camera style of filming has surely reached the end by now. I hope so.

There's no meaningful story as such - someone's getting married somewhere and a bunch of dreadful people have gone with them - the acting is poor and the characters are truly repugnant.

I am at a loss to think who this might appeal to. I would be staggered to hear that someone would find it funny and disappointed that someone thinks this is how Americans should be depicted abroad.

2 stars ? Nicaragua looks nice - though no-one seems to have bothered showing much of it. The majority of scenes take place in hotel bathrooms.

Nothing profound here...a simple plot where we expect outrageous behavior/situations and uproarious/crude humor. That's all I expected and hoped for. There were a few good laughs but not enough for what this movie was supposed to be, as I just described. I did like the character of Phil, he was amusing throughout. But among this genre there are endless better options. The Hangover this is not...

A wedding is a resort in Nicaragua is an excuse for debauchery. Drink and sex. That is not going to turn out well!

Phil thinks that it would be great if everyone could record the goings on when his wife's sister gets married.

There is nothing pseudo-intellectual to say Drunk Wedding is a bad movie. It is inspired by the found footage type films.

It is plotless and witless. The director thinks that some silly raunchy behaviour could pass off as a comedy.

One scene includes a man urinating on another man as he lies on the bed.

The story has all the coherence of a mess left behind by projectile vomiting.

If you wish The Hangover had more of a found-footage feel — and no Bradley Cooper, and more bros getting peed on — here's an offbeat treat for you. You might not have heard of this one, and unless you happened to be at an Alamo Drafthouse this weekend, you probably haven't seen it. But if you're anyone I went to undergrad with, you absolutely should.

Paramount released Drunk Wedding direct to iTunes this weekend. I bought it, and I watched it, and I can report that while you may not know all of the actors and it won't get the usual blockbuster ad campaign, it's quite the tequila-soaked barrel of fun.

Just so we're on the same page here, Citizen Kane this is not. No. Drunk Wedding is a Gonzo faux-doc raunchy travelogue wedding comedy that takes its pants off early and often. It's dialed in tight and quite nicely paced, its modest 1:20 runtime a steady drumbeat of redband-worthy gags, pranks, and awww-shoot moments. Shooting on location in Nicaragua brings immediacy to the action, though the film is not without its issues in this regard: The found-footage style demands a certain gritty realism that doesn't always mesh well with the clearly quite decent cameras actually used here, and the cinematography occupies that strange reality/scripted middle ground that reminds me of an early dose of The Hills. (Nothing that a goat won't fix.) The writing is solid, at times laugh out loud hilarious, but set against the whole average-joes-filming-themselves trope it sometimes feels overwritten, too smart for its premise. (Too clever for your own good, Nick and Tony Weiss?) Interestingly, Drunk Wedding shares something in common with Take Me Home Tonight, another collegiate comedy I really liked: both languished on the shelf for a couple of years before their release.

Quibbles aside, Drunk Wedding is here now and delivers what you're crashing it for — some memorable characters (Dan Gill is terrific as Phil, Nick P. Ross is deliciously creepy as Linc aka Beavis incarnate, and Victoria Gold does a great job as the girls' girl bride Elissa), some quality pranking, and an almost but not quite home movie feel.

This is also the kind of movie you'll want all your friends to see, so your party-prone social circle has ready access to the bank of soon-to-be-iconic-at-least-to-us references. I will say though that if your "hey, this is just like the time" moments overlap very much with this film, your parties are off the flippin' chain, bro.

Haus Verdict: Loved it. Small on budget and big on raunch, Drunk Wedding is just what it sounds like — and if you're in the market for that, take a look.
