REVIEW
Comedy, they say, comes in many forms. This one relies on getting laughs mainly from sexually explicit dialogue about masturbation and oral sex,
vulgar references to parts of the female anatomy and showing raunchy sex videos. To add to the hilarity Peter tries his hand at a beer chugging contest that provokes projectile vomiting all over his friend.
A lot in the audience found all this hilarious and frequently laughed out loud so it is appealing to the right target audience. But not to me as I walked out after half an hour.
CLASSIFICATION
for pervasive language, including crude and sexual references.FOR NITPICKERS ONLY
While talking on the phone, the newspaper Sydney was reading is laying on his chest. Although he doesn’t touch it, between shots it reorients itself 90 degrees.
