Fantastic!
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
There's nothing sophisticated here and some of the humor is a little old, but generally if you're in the mood for a daft romantic movie with very good acting, I'd recommend you give it a go.
A shy British graduate gets dragged on a wild road trip across America to a fraternity party by his soon-to-be stepbrothers, as his mother marries into a larger-than-life, American family. Frat Pack was definitely larger than life as the plot suggested, larger than life boring and stupid that's what it was. The acting was way below average, the comedy fall flat for at least 99.9% of the entire movie plus it was neither sexy as it tried to be. Danny Trejo also should not be on the poster his character was pretty much forgettable from the get go. (0/10)
I'm 52 years old, I remember movies like Animal House, Porkeys, Caddyshack, Police Academy ect, movies that weren't meant to make you think, not meant to win awards, just meant to make you laugh. I've missed those kind of movies! Everything is so damn PC these days people are afraid to joke about things, jokes are funny, enjoy them, laugh and forget your troubles for an hour or so. This movie accomplishes that. I can honestly say I enjoyed it from start to finish!I thought all the acting was good, sure the story has been done before but thats why it works. And Farley..... I didn't even know Chris had a brother. He is eerily like him! The tip of the hat with his karate was great! All I could think of was "in a van..... down by the river!" Made me smile.Heck I'd watch it again, not a lot of movies I say that about.
Me being a 15 year old boy my opinion of this movie was great. I think this movie would appeal more to teenagers like me and not to older people who have watched movies very similar to this such as animal house. I don't know very much about acting but the acting was great and there were moments in the movie that were extremely funny and moments where the jokes were ok. Some parts of the movie had kind of cheesy parts, but they managed to work comedy in there. I watched this movie on a website and have watched it 3 times so far in the past 24 hours (which i do not think is normal at all).
