Drunk Bus

...made my evening, forgot when I laughed last that often spontaneously in a movie! :) will definetly look for others written by John Carlucci!

Great acting, believable characters (real-life(ish) Grab a friend (if available), watch it and enjoy the story!

Light comedy set in a dark loop, and some how you need to break out of it.

The movie script was good, purposeful I would say, but it did had a yawn moments in times ,, It did score the genre of comedy/drama steadily, the screenplay is very connected and easily comprehensible and the plot and even the ending was satisfying for me.

The cast was very good, from Charlie Tahan to Pineapple (which by the way is his actual name :D) ,, but speaking of the cast I didn't like Will Forte being just behind the radio and popping up right at the end !! Come on !! He would have made and extra sprinkle on the comedy.

The movie is recommended especially for those who would love to watch a nice story about doing something stupid at least once in a life time :)

Someone should tell the writer that the story he's attempting to tell already exists, and it's a 15 y/o flick called Garden State.

It's watchable, the two main characters have ok chemistry, and there are a few entertaining enough scenes, but like the characters life, nothing ever really gets going.

Its unfortunate that the main character is quite unlikeable, especially since the other primary character of Pineapple is quite entertaining. Some more student revenge hijinks or anything to get them teaming up physically more would have been nice, and have opened the movie up to more plot possibilities.

A bit cliched and empty, but well made.

Films like this don't seem to be made very much anymore but they really should be. Drunk Bus has properly defined characters that you become genuinely interested in. It's also very, very funny at times. It also packs a surprisingly effective emotional punch towards the end.

The tone of the film kind of reminded me of Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982) and The Wild Life (1984), although it's still very contemporary. Another film that I'd have happily watched another hour of and not felt bored.

Only docked one star because I felt Zach Cherry's character didn't add anything and seemed a little out of place. Other than that, this film comes highly recommended. Seriously good soundtrack as well.
