If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
First, the dialogue was difficult to follow. The audio was horrible - typically one participant in a conversation would sound like he was shouting, while the other mumbled incoherently. Fortunately(?), the script was awful as well, so I'm pretty sure I didn't miss anything witty.I was hoping for a clever spoof of survival shows, but it's really only stereotypical idiots camping in the woods. Nothing exciting or humorous, merely boring people doing trite things in over-dramatic fashion to try to make it more interesting.The acting wasn't particularly terrible. There just wasn't anything of substance for them to act out. Also an interesting premise, but I really wish they'd taken the time to put some actual comedy into it.
This is one of the funniest independent movies I have seen in a long time. Josh Folan and Avery Pearson are just crazy. I could not stop laughing not just because of the humor but I have some slacker friends that are just like these guys. If you want to kick back and have some great laughs over slapstick and raunchy humor you must see this movie! I can personally guarantee that you will not stop laughing. The girls are great and the movie is just very well executed. I was pleasantly surprised when I decided to sit down and watch it and it has kind of become a weekend ritual for me and my girlfriend now. If you like movies like Dude Where is My Car and Without a Paddle then this is a movie for your collection. Sometimes you just find a gem and this movie is without a doubt a gem that I can share with my friends that have seen everything. You should definitely check it out. It is a very well done film and I am so glad that I took a chance on it.
