Like others have said before me, this movie follows the route of Road Trip, American Pie, previous National Lampoon movies plus a dash of Overnight Delivery. The characters followed a stock formula: the Nice Good Guy, the Goofball/Nerd, the Arrogant Jerk. Throw in some horny or scantily clad ladies. The romantic subplot became obvious from a mile away. There was a lot of sexual innuendo and some gratuitous nudity. The thing is this formula doesn't win Oscars, but it's usually funny. Going the Distance isn't a bad way to spend an hour and a half, and as far as National Lampoon movies go, it's far funnier than the wretched Adam & Eve.
