Road Trip (2000) 8/10

Starring : Breckin Meyer, Seann William Scott, Amy Smart, Paulo Costanzo, DJ Qualls, Rachel Blanchard, Tom Green
Director : Todd Phillips
Running Time : 91 mins

Barry Manilow (Green) tells the story of college legend Josh Parker (Meyer) and of how Josh and his friends travelled the length of America in the vain hope of retrieving a sex tape of Josh and his college friend Beth (Smart) that accidentally got mailed to Josh’s girlfriend Tiffany (Blanchard).

In spite of being a complete ripoff of the movie Overnight Delivery, starring Reese Witherspoon and Paul Rudd, this movie still has a lot going for it. There’s the exact right level of crass humour for teen comedies of the time, and some of the scenarios are so over the top they’ll keep you laughing long past the end credits.
