Watch the movie for yourself. Don't skip this one based on the 5.9 score. It was a funny, raunchy, comedy that wasn't trying to lecture it's audience. I had some laugh out loud moments that I don't get anymore with other current comedies.
Stavros was a confident and fun lead man. He wasn't ashamed to bare it all hahaha. A lot of these reviews are critiquing this movie like it was supposed to be the godfather and the movie knows what it is. It's a sit-down, eat something, and forget about your day type of movie. It's not a serious project and I believe the director is aware of that. Overall it's a good comedy with an original premise.

Honestly, I found the movie really enjoyable and funny. It's obviously dumb and there are many plot holes if you look for them, but that's not the point.
It's exactly what it's supposed to be. A fun goofy comedy where you can turn your brain off and get some laughs. Brings you back to the early 2000's comedies. We need more movies like this. Hopefully this movie makes enough to warrant working on another one, as well as motivating other comedians to give something like this a shot.
Considering this was Stavros' first go at it, I'm excited to see what he comes up with next!(: I'll definitely be there to support.

It's a movie that was a fun watch and a good comedy it kept me intrigued by the characters all the way. It is about two guys who we're in a previous suicide cult thinking to start anew
The movie definitely deserves more credit than it does because of the way the story goes along and how it keeps the viewer entertained by the change of scenery or introduction of a new character.
I expected a B-movie for some quick entertainment for the background, but instead got a super funny movie that really shows that the writers/director know that it's a comedy and made sure to remind you of that! It was a classic stoner movie to me.

I had low expectations for this movie going in and it blew my socks off. It was AMAZING, IT WAS EVERYTHING A COMEDY IN 2024 SHOULD BE. Laughs throughout, it had a great story, character development, surprises, plot twists, the ood guys come out on top.
To think this movie was dreampt up and made by a comedian and a couple of producers that did short films for $300k A bagel with shmere is $8. What they pulled off is nothing short of incredible. It looked and felt like a real movie, for me and my era, it's up there with grandma's boy, pineapple express, The lowest anyone should rate this film is an 8.5, that's being a harsh critic, rented it on date night and you found out she was banging your best friend, that's a spite score. I was shocked to see some of the ratings for this movie and I think there's a organized effort to try and tank it (not cool at all) one site said 30%, I have to go the other way and while I would rate it an 8.75, now it's a 10. Do your part, watch the movie, it's really funny, and then leave honest reviews with 10's. We won't let this gang of negative Nancies win. We are all we got in this world, we owe Chip, he'd help us out the same. Ten/Ten 10/10.

This movie hilariously explores the ways in which people end up in a cult. I love the way we explore each cult member's background which are all uniquely quirky and interesting. These multifaceted characters almost had you rooting for cult members at times or laughing at how naive they are. The cinematography is very stylistically interesting and the writing is smartly funny. We buckled over laughing at the plot choices at times, staying on the edge of our seat excited to hear what's next. I could totally see this becoming a cult classic in the future as more people discover it. A great watch while high.
