Bachelor Party Vegas

Vegas Baby (2006, Dir. Eric Bernt)

Nathan (Bennett) is getting married and he's left his four friends to plan his bachelor party. But what Z-Bob (Penn) thinks is a fool-proof plan to a wild night in Vegas, ends up as a chase across Vegas in what would be a weekend they would never forget.

Vegas Baby really tries hard to be a truly funny comedy film, but falls flat most of the time. There are jokes placed around, but these come mostly from Lin Shaye (who shows more than needs to be seen) and the unknown Himelstein. The main comedic draw of the film, Kal Penn fails to present any funny jokes at all, that he is known for.

I bought this movie for one dollar and it wasn't worth it. I thought this movie would at least be funny, but it wasn't it was stupid,unfunny,boring and just gross.not one part of the movie was funny. Who the hell thinks this garbage is funny. This was so painful to watch . My eyes started to hurt from watching this crap. This was a waste of time and money . This movie was unbelievably horrible. Don't watch this garbage unless you want to torture yourself . This pile of crap is overrated. 4.7 is to much for this piece of sh#t . That's the rating it has at the time that I'm writing this review. This movie belongs in the bottom 100 list. It doesn't even deserve the one star I had to give it. This manure deserves a big fat negative zero. If you want to waste a hour and thirty minutes of your life do something else like cleaning a restroom after thousands of people have used it. It will be less painful then watching this turd. Whatever you do avoid this movie at all cost!!!!

Of course I already had the bar quite low for this movie, expecting a good crude humour comedy, may be even a bad crude humour comedy but still enjoyable. Why? I like Kal Penn and the Harold and Kumar movies, I even liked Hangover, so in a streak of retrospect to Hangover and respect to Kal Penn I decided to rent this DVD in 2014. I regretted I did it. I never imagined that such senseless script could exist. Hopeless zero talented directing to boot as well. Kal Penn wouldn't have helped his movie even if he was a living deity of acting. The stop button took action in about 15 minutes from the start of Bachelor Party Vegas. You've been warned. Stay away from this junk even if you like below the waist humour and Kal Penn.

Although I practically live on IMDb, I've never written a review before. I have good taste but am not afraid to watch a good, tacky, prepubescent T&A flick. However, I feel I owe it to humanity to warn the rest of the world how awful this movie is.

I went to the video store to rent the original movie which I caught the last half of on cable not too long ago and loved (which shows I'm not some high-brow snob). Unfortunately, they don't carry it, so I decided to try this POS instead.

I'm not going to waste considerable time to write why this movie sucks so badly. Just take my word for it and do yourself a favor, forgo this movie, and rent the original 1984 "Bachelor Party".

I think someone should refund my money and pay damages for the pain and suffering I endured watching this movie.

Rated R for strong sexual content and humor including dialogue, nudity, language and some drug use.

While this rating and the DVD cover of this movie may make the so called lovers of cinema , wriggle their noses, ITS EXACTLY THE KIND OF RATING I LIKE MY MOVIES TO HAVE.

So trust me when I say, I AM THE TARGET AUDIENCE FOR SUCH FILMS.

That being said I'm not a big fan of direct to DVD movies, if the movie isn't good enough to see in the theaters there's no reason it should be good enough to see on the TV.

But still THIS MOVIE HAD ALL THE CHARACTERISTICS I LIKE IN A COMEDY MOVIE AND KAL PENN. So I rented this movie but automatically lowered my expectations.

The movie started with promise with a hilarious joke on the racist nature of airport security, immediately the Multi-cultural nature of the cast struck me A black, A nerd, A fat guy , A Normal White Guy in Love, an Indian.......... no rational mind can accept this scenario and its been clearly done to increase the range of the audience as much as possible.

The movie had crude jokes, nudity, hot chicks, ugly chicks , fat chicks, Gay jokes but somehow I was hardly laughing, I even remember most of the jokes but I seem to recall laughing only for a couple of them namely the Airport Security one, the Porn Set, the hotel entry etc.

THIS IS A PERFECT CASE OF GREAT JOKES GONE WRONG. We all know a jokes is not all about its content but on its execution and this movie has clearly gone wrong there.

The background score was in fact quite good WHEN IT WAS USED, this movie completely forgot that sound effects can be used in films.The opening sequence was a great example of this.

The acting was in fact very good, the characters may have been stereotypical but the actors displayed their acting talents in the limited premise that was given to them. For me the winner was the nerdy guy who would do the most nerdiest things possible in all situations.

Script writing and direction are never fortes of such films and were not worth mentioning here either.

Towards the end the movie tried to be something its not, IN THE MOST PREDICTABLE MANNER POSSIBLE and it was the looser for it. For a moment this movie felt like a Chick Flick.

The only thing nagging me was that I saw the movie with the wrong company, and MAYBE ON A BETTER DAY THIS MOVIE COULD HAVE MADE ME LAUGH, given the potential of the jokes. But even then being a lover of such films this should have been a mere triviality.

All in all a ordinary film which wasted its potential and failed in execution. THERE IS A CHANCE THAT THIS MOVIE MAY MAKE YOU LAUGH (more than a a couple of times) BUT THE CHANCES ARE LOW.

Worth a miss.!!!

+s great jokes, good acting, a few well executed scenes

+/-s may be able to make you laugh if you like such movies (a gamble)

-s bad execution, tries to be what is not (unsuccessfully and predictably), no sound effects.

total 4.5/10 (factoring in Made for DVD and bad company)
