    Perfect movie about life and friendship

    I think a lot of people missed the idea of the movie, this is not the usual comedy where you laugh out loud, this is a funny-ish made serious movie about long lasting friendships, about life and its struggles and that family and friends is what you should care about the most

    You don't stop playing because you grow old.

    Tag is such a fun movie. The lengths these guys go to for their game is honestly inspiring, as is any instance where people put way too much effort into something so silly (see "Actual Cannibal Shia LaBeouf"). Ed Helms has made a career out of having fun, and seeing him in this movie with Jon Hamm and Jeremy Renner is just part of that magic that brings out the kid in all of us. You don't stop playing because you grow old; you grow old because you stop playing.

    Vastly Underrated IMO

    Folks should learn to totally ignore the critics these days. Too much political correctness has made them completely misleading and just plain wrong a lot.

    I haven't laughed in tears for much of a movie in a long time. Based on a true story this was outrageous and funny. It is not for kids and is pretty dirty language but so well done. Enjoy!

    surprisingly funny!

    I went into this with low expectations. Honestly, an entire film about adults playing the game of tag?

    I was pleasantly surprised how funny this film was! I haven't laughed this hard in a LONG time! It is a fast paced comedy that wears its R rating proudly - it is rude, crude and funny!!

    This film is all about excellent acting, great direction and wonderful editing. The plot is paper thin but I was never bored..

    Don't let the plot dissuade you from seeing this. I actually laughed so hard I missed a lot of the jokes! will probably buy this on bluray so I can catch up with what I missed.

    Enjoy. 8/10

    Stupid but a lot of fun

    Watch it. It's great. The jokes are mostly on point, the staging is good and even though i hat slow-mo, it really works here. Including the train of thought they play into the scene from the off. Would have gotten a better rating, if it wasn't so far over the top from time to time. And some characters could have used a bit more depth, or at least it would have been interesting.

    Anyways. Good and fun movie.

    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      In contrast to the movie, in the real game of tag there are 10 friends participating, the game is played each February, and they don't tag each other at work. However, the tag at a father's funeral did happen, and in both the game has been an unconventional way of maintaining friendships.
    • Goofs
      At the end of the movie, the group runs out of the hospital room playing tag. Earlier in the room you could see Jeremy Renner's character's wife was standing in the doorway, but in the shot immediately after you don't see her in the hallway.

      But before the men run out of the hospital room, Jerry's wife is seen to step to the side of the doorway inside the room so she would not be visible in the next shot from the hallway as the men come out.

      Hoagie: Synchronize your watches.

      Callahan: I don't know how to do that.

      Randy: I don't have a watch.

      Sable: Time is a construct.

    • Crazy credits
