A 40-year-old executive ends up at a three-day bachelor party with twenty-somethings after being mistakenly included in their chat group.
Obviously, this film is critic proof as none are going to critique this for artistic merits. Though at this point one can say this isn’t a good film and is easily forgettable, but for some it will be entertaining for its time. As there are moments that garner a laugh or a chuckle usually do more to gross out humor.
This film seems to be a little more risky as there is a lot more drug humor in this than expected. As the film seeks to push the envelope, but not go over the cliff Like THE HANGOVER. It still seeks to be a little bit more pain.
Though Kevin Hart stars in this film, really you could’ve inserted any actor or comedic actor superstar in the lead role and might’ve had pretty much the same results
As throughout the film, there seems to be plenty of set ups that are not followed through upon and only use for that scene maybe to lead into another scene and that seems to be how recognizable members of the cast are they’re here more for cameos to play a role for a scene maybe two and then they’re out maybe not forgotten but definitely not followed up on they’re there just to play they’re seeing and not really giving any gravity a reason to be there just Moore isn’t that
The story really makes no sense and unfortunately, none of the cast really stands out or makes an impression they go through the motions, but even their banter doesn’t sound like it was improv or even that well written, it seems more standard bad joke writing
Even the characters seem like they’re more outlines and seem lazy and more ready to go as the supporting cast is played by several recognizable members of the current SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE cast ensemble. you would think they would have something to ad for at least help
It has a ridiculous cameo at the end for a reveal that definitely feels a bit similar to Kevin Hart’s previous film RIDE ALONG. With an actor who I won’t reveal but at this point feels like he’s under contract to Netflix as he always seems to pop up randomly in their movies.
Can’t say that this film really had a chance as it seems less than inspired and more directed as a mood or in the frame of mind it tries to put you in. It’s so pretty disappointing, popcorn, film, and that may be if you’re under the influence you might be able to find some worth in as truly. The only memorable part of this film is the bachelorette party and that’s about it.
you could definitely skip this one
