Storyline

Convinced that his buddy Nardo (Thomas Middleditch) is making the mistake of a lifetime by marrying Tracy (Shannon Woodward), Jason (T.J. Miller) puts a dramatic end to their wedding. When the furious bride decides to take her Baja honeymoon solo, Nardo follows her-where the lovesick groom is carjacked and left stranded, naked and penniless in a remote part of the Mexican desert. Helpless, Nardo sends out an SOS to Jason and their pal Evan (Adam Pally), an up-and-coming ad exec slated for an important business meeting the next morning. During their ridiculous attempt to rescue Nardo, the trio embarks on a series of increasingly outrageous misadventures involving con artists, drug smugglers and even the Federales.

Goofs

When Nardo is phoning from Mexico for the 2nd time in the phone booth you can read "TELEPHONO" which is wrong as such word does not exist in Spanish. It seems a phonetically written word as "PH" sound correspond to "F" in Spanish, the correct word is "TELÉFONO".

Quotes

Nardo: We're not in Spain.

Crazy Credits

After the ending credits there is a scene with The amazing Hugo preparing his victim for the "operation".

User Reviews

Funny and Fun to watch, underrated!

Not funny the whole time but I don't know what people expect anymore, it was pretty good. I think this movie is underrated for sure though, I've seen comedy movies worse than this one and people think is funny, example "anchorman". There's different times of comedy, gotta give this one a chance. I would watch It again to honest. Don't read other comments, if you like hangover, Harold and Kumar type comedies then you will like this one.
