Audience Member This is very funny due to characters who are in the wildest cicumstances . Its not predictable like so many comedies . Loved the chinese boss, his wife and kid, the grandparents and the holocaust joke!(believe me, it works!). Finally, the two main characters are well acted, making this a very untypical 'buddy comedy'. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member This is pretty wild,yet clever at the same time. Un PC characters and circumstances had me laughing hysterically with a few exceptions. I loved the two main characters, Jacob and Alex and their relationship. Can't wait to see what this writer comes up with next. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member I was hesitant to watch this movie at first but figured I'd check it out because I'm a big Freaks and Geeks fan and love Samm Levine. It's actually pretty funny. I thought that they could have gotten into more depth with the characters. But that being said, if you like this type of over the top offensive humor, you won't be disappointed. The gay rapper played by Aries Spears is hilarious in particular. The Chinese boss too. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Heh! This movie is just so funny and so subversively outrageous. Samm Levine is hysterical,as are many of the other actors; Aries spears, Clint Jung, Marty Ingels. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member The transexual character was pretty good, I think it's the actress from The Hangover. Samm Levine's character and the gay gay gangsta rapper were good too. They spoof pretty much every stereotype imaginable from transexuals, to hip hop, to Jews, blacks, Chinese people, etc, so the movie's pretty much an equal opportunity offender. I thought that the evil brother character was kind of annoying and the lesbian receptionist was funny but a bit much at times. Imagine Lisa Lamponelli as an obnoxious receptionist that sexually harasses all of the women in the office. A little annoying. There was a lot of funny stuff though. If it was some big budget studio movie then I'd have to grade it tougher but it was funny for what it was. Just don't watch it if you don't like the whole South Park style of crude humor. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member I was a huge Freeks and Geeks fan so I figured I'd give this a shot. since Samm Levine stars in it. If you're easily offended then it probably won't be for you. But if you can appreciate crass and politically incorrect humor then this is definitely better than most of the corny crap that you'll find in indie comedies. Samm Levine was really funny, and Aries Spears was hilarious as a gay gangsta rapper. The old lady from Seinfeld was also pretty funny, much dirtier than her role on the show. A couple of the jokes were stupid and not all of the characters were that great, but overall it was a really funny movie for what it was. Just don't go into it thinking that you're about to watch some award winning studio movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
