    It's dumb but that it's the fun

    I really enjoyed this stupid movie, they are the highlight of SNL and definitely my type of humor. It's corny, little one liners delivered just awkwardly enough to make me crack up. You follow three friends on the adventure for the treasure. Along the way they get robbed, tricked, and end up with a cult.

    Time flies when watching this goofy flick and you can't help but root for this absurd friendship. What will come of the treasure? Will they make it out of the forest alive? Will they be millionaires and be happy?

    We also get some amazing cameos from Conan O'Brien and Bowen Yang. Definitely worth checking out!

    Revenge of the Nerds

    Age of entitlement! Who gave these mediocre SNL writers the idea that writing comedy is the same as acting in a comedy?

    Writing, formulaic and almost scientific these days, and visualizing what the characters say and do, doesn't make one the best choice to act out those characters in front of the camera.

    I mean, they know that already. So, why humiliate yourself? Even your SNL's mini movies aren't funny, well maybe one or two, but a 3min sketch is not the same as a 90min movie.

    Sometimes, a chef is better complimented if he's not seen by the customers. So, stay in the writers room.

    Oh, the movie? It's bad.

    If the boys from Workaholics went on a treasure hunt

    While the movie has some funny dialogue and it's worth finishing once you get far enough in to realize it isn't that good, those are the most complementary things I can say about this flick.

    On the face this movie is just Without a Paddle redone 20 years later. Group of friends since childhood are growing apart as adults and one of them decides to rekindle the once flourishing friendship by having the group go on a hunt for a fabled treasure they heard about when they were kids. Absolutely the same story as Without a Paddle.

    The only thing that sets this apart from the movie it rips off is that the group of guys is more like a direct copy of Mail Order Comedy, the guys who brought you Workaholics and Game Over, Man!

    Overall the movie isn't the worst thing you'll ever watch, but it offers zero originality and mostly cheesy humor. Do yourself a favor and plan on spending 90 minutes of your life on something more entertaining. Like re-grouting your shower.

    Exactly what I expected

    I love this group. They're always hilarious. I look forward to their skits on SNL every Saturday. While the premise has been done before. It didn't take away from the film. I especially love that Conan O' Brien was in the film. I mostly enjoy their positive, and kind attitudes. To be fair. I love anything that non serious. Even in the most serious moments. The humor is still there. I also love how used John Goodman for the voiceover. Perfect choice if you ask me. Bowen Yang being included just made it that much better! I hope these guys continue to stay friends, and create consistent funny content.

    I'm sad

    I was so excited for this film but it felt... disappointing. The guys pulled their punches and you could kind of feel their humor trying to break through, but it was like it had been through the washing machine of lane Hollywood Apatow humor. Like the small bits that made me laugh didn't even match how much PDD makes me laugh from a simple SNL skit. The pacing was weird and it made me feel kind of sad for the guys that this was their film debut. It's hard to describe other than that it felt like it went off the rails but not in a good way like their SNL skits. It was more off the rails in a stupid way. When we got to the cult, I really was just ready for it to be over, and then Bowen Yang added nothing to it. It was sad.
