Buddymoon

You can't help but feel good watching this movie. I think I had a constant smile on my face. A heartbroken, struggling actor gets dumped by his fiancé and in effort to cheer him up, his best friend decides to take him on the outdoors adventure he had planned with the ex for their honeymoon (hence the title, "Buddymoon"). The chemistry between these two friends is awesome and some of the scenes were hysterical. There were a few serious moments, but all in all, this is a really funny movie and the two leads are incredibly likable. They meet some interesting characters along their way. This movie will be equally enjoyed by both men and women.

I guess if you decide to go hiking, Fluola is one of the best choices for a partner. Unless you get annoyed by his voice, accents or general chatter (and there is a lot of it going on). But yes this is a buddy comedy (hence the title), about a guy not sure about himself or his next destination/path, so what better thing to do, than go out into the wild? Maybe there are better ideas, but for the purposes of this comedy it was a good setting.

The comedy works because of the German jester. Not all the jokes work, but you can feel that the friendship is there. There has to be some drama, but overall it does feel as real as possible, for a movie of its kind. If you don't mind the setting, than you will be entertained on this road to discovery (oneself)

I can't recommend this film enough.

From beginning to end this film brings the laughs and the love. Yes it's silly. Yes it won't appeal to everyone, but if you want to lose yourself for an hour or so and have a couple of giggles along the way, Buddymoon is for you.

Flula is here to brighten your day!

For me story on which this movie based is extremely unusual. I would never thought about such situation. And even if I think I would never consider that someone could make a movie based on it. But it's quite interesting and humorous story. Of course at first it's sad but as I get it this is not the point of the movie. Very good thing about this movie is it's duration. It's not long compare to most of contemporary movies and this is very good. I personally enjoyed watching Buddymoon. It was never boring. There is very beautiful nature. Good humor. Very good actors. Really very good actor playing. Also very nice song in the end. I'd like to hear it in some club in my current place - Krasnodar, Russia:-) This movie made my mood better. I felt some really positive energy after watching it. It's actually very positive movie despite that the main character David has a wedding canceled. I would recommend this movie.

I thought this indie offered a nice change of pace from the usual movie fare of superheroes, crime capers, and heavy dramas, The humor, in my opinion, "won't knock you off your seat" but there are laughs here, some charm, and some wonderful cinematography of the Oregon woods.

David Giuntoli stars as David, who's just been jilted by his fiancé Frankie (Jeanne Syquia) right before their wedding date, and he's holed up in his house feeling quite depressed. Flula Borg co-stars as Flula, who's David's best friend (they're actually friends in real life). Flula convinces David to go on his planned honeymoon hike with him anyway, which will help ease the blues once he's outdoors.

The rapport between the two, who are polar opposites in personality, works well with Flula being wildly gregarious while David is reserved and introspective. The remainder of the movie will track their adventures through the Oregon woods, meeting various characters along the way and playing effective pranks on each other. The film also effectively intersperses segments of the actual journal of explorer William Clark, who in 1805 traversed the same areas in the famous Lewis & Clark Expedition.

Overall, not everything in this movie works but as mentioned it offers a change of pace from the usual fare and for its minimal 1 hr. and 19 min. running time it was a decent watch for me.
