Le paquet

My consensus is that it was an above average flick - not great by any stretch of the imagination - but still fun and nostalgic (remembering the simple idea of spending time with friends of both genders, with sexual tension amongst people). It certainly was a screw ball teen comedy with drinking, innuendos, and violence, humor, a touch of romance, and a well-rounded cast. It's safe to say most people have thick enough skin to put up with the film, despite how over the top it is.

After a long stream of seeing poor Netflix-produced films, I was surprised that the story made me laugh as much as I did. Sometimes you need some shock value- this did deliver.

I put this on in the background with absolutely no expectations and ended up stopping what I was doing to watch it. An extremely silly, buddy-comedy that is surprisingly well executed, written and acted. It follows a lot of typical clichés for the genre, but does it well. Would recommend to anyone looking for a late-night stoner comedy and some good laughs.

The Package is a Netflix original that channels American Pie (1999) and other gross out teen comedies. It does however ramp it up quite a bit and provides surely the most dick jokes in one single film!

It tells the story of five friends who go camping, but when one drunkenly cuts his dick off it becomes a race against time to get him to the hospital and have it sewn back on.

Based on that premise I'm sure you think the movie will be crude, crass and infantile and you'd be entirely right. However thanks to a decent cast, script and direction it's actually an oddly hilarious little comedy.

The mostly unknown little cast did great here, Michael Eklund is also on hand to provide some veteran contributions and was great as always.

Not for weak stomachs be aware that when I say this is a gross out comedy I'm not exaggerating, it's pretty hardcore stuff as you'd imagine something that's centered entirely around decapitated genitals would be.

I laughed way more than I expected, I found our five leads to be surprisingly likeable and the whole thing was just a well put together goofy little movie.

I really enjoyed The Package and am not afraid to admit it, absolute laugh riot.

The Good:

Geraldine Viswanathan and Sadie Calvano

A lot of really hilarious stuff

The Bad:

Falters a tad in the final quarter

For a Netflix original comedy this is actually legitimately funny. Obviously it's a ridiculous and unrealistic story line that's ultimate stupid but it's still funny as hell.

I didnt think this was terrible. It's the usual. It kept me entertained and I had a few giggles. If you have nothing better to do and want to dumb it down for a minute go for it. Given this is made by the guys from Workaholics, it's the same type of humor.
