Audience Member Thought the movie would be a little cheesy but it was freakin hilarious! Extremely well-thought out script and screenplay, well-picked cast and lovely execution. I highly recommend it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member The first thing The Bet made me think of was American Pie, it's also similar to Van Wilder and Harold and Kumar. I've noticed a Good To Go Tour poster on the wall and an Army Of Freshmen poster. I'm pretty good at noticing things like that, I don't know if there are more references or not but those are the ones I noticed. This if my first time seeing Chris Jay act, he was good. Jenny Dennison Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie is so offensive but so much fun, because the filmmakers and the cast are having a blast and wholeheartedly embracing the genre. Totally worth watching, and you'll be laughing in spirt of your better judgement. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member "American Pie" meets "Van Wilder" with "Porky's" in its soul. Very fun! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I had a great time with this movie. If you are looking for Citizen Kane or the next redefinition of comedy, move on. But if you just need two hours of raunchy jokes, hot chicks, and clever dialog all set in an American Pie/Van Wilder-esque universe, try it out. I loved seeing some great wrestling heros and fookin Chuck D. It's cool to see Hollywood outsiders come out of nowhere and deliver a charming gross-out raunch-com with almost no budget. Looking forward to the next project from Jay/Goldberg. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Refreshingly clever! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
