| Rating |      | | Date | August 30, 2005 | | Summary | "MI SCUSI"...THIS IS THE FUNNIEST MOVIE I'VE EVER SEEN! | Content
 | THIS IS INDEED THE FUNNIEST MOVIE I'VE EVER SCENE. THE MOVIE HAS SO MANY GREAT PARTS TO IT. HERE IS A BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE MOVIE:
THE MOVIE STARTS WITH SCOTT GETTING DUMPED BY HIS LADYFRIEND FIONA. HE THEN TELLS HIS INTERNET FRIEND "MIKE" ABOUT IT. THAT NIGHT HE GOES TO A PARTY AND OF COURSE, HE GETS DRUNK. WHEN HE GETS HOME, CLUELESS OF THE SITUATION, "MIKE" SAYS "HE" WANTS TO MEET UP WITH SCOTT IN AMERICA. THINKING "MIKE" IS A GUY, SCOTT SAYS SOME PRETTY BAD THINGS GETTING HIS E MAIL BLOCKED FROM "MIKE". THE NEXT MORNING, HIS BROTHER INFORMS HIM "MIKE" IS ACTUALLY MEICA. SCOTT THEN GOES TO EUROPE WITH HIS FRIEND COOPER. THEIR FIRST STOP IS ENGLAND, WHERE THEY ENCOUNTER A "PRIVATE MEMBERS BAR EXCLUSIVE FOR THE SUPPORTERS OF THE GREATEST FOOTBALL TEAM IN THE WORLD, MANCHESTER UNITED". BY A CHANCE OF LUCK, THEY ALL BECOME BUDS. THE NEXT MORNING, SCOTT AND COOPER AWAKEN ON A BUS AFTER GETTING DRUNK PREVIOUS NIGHT. THEY END UP GOING TO PARIS TO SEE A FOOTBALL GAME. LUCKILY FOR SCOTT AND COOPER, THE SUPPORTERS GET DISTRACTED AND SCOTT AND COOPER SNEAK OFF TO MEET UP WITH THEIR FRIENDS, JENNY AND JAMIE. FROM HERE, THEY GO TO MANY COUNTRIES ON THEIR WAY TO MEICA IN BERLIN, GERMANY. PARIS IS THE 1ST ADVENTURE WHERE THEY VISIT THE "LOUGE" AND SCOTT KICKS A ROBOT IN THE BALLS. THE NEXT PLACE IS SOME PLACE IN FRANCE, WHERE THEY GO TO A NUDE BEACH, ONLY TO DISCOVER THE MALE TOURISTS SCARE AWAY THE NAKED CHICKS. VERY NASTY SCENE. FROM THERE, THEY GET ON THE TRAIN TO HEAD TO THEIR NEXT DESTINATION. THE GREATEST SCENE EVER THEN HAPPENS. AS THEY RIDE TO AMSTERDAM, A CREEPY ITALIAN MAN INVADES THEIR "ROOM" ON THE TRAIN. I GUARENTEE, YOU SEE THIS SCENE, YOU WILL LAUGH YOURSELF SENSELESS. HE SITS BETWEEN JAMIE AND COOPER. AFTER GOING THROUGH A TUNNEL, THEY DISCOVER HE HAS HIS HAND ON JAMIE'S KNEE. AFTER SHAKING HIM OFF SOMEHOW, WE HEAR MY FAVORITE LINE "AH, MI SCUSI!". AFTER THE TUNNEL AGAIN, THE MAN IS GIVING JAMIE A NECK MASSAGE, LMAO! AFTER SHAKING HIM OFF AGAIN, THEY GO THROUGH A BIG TUNNEL WHERE THEY ARE ALL PANICING. WHEN THEY GET OUT, THE MAN BASICALLY HAS HIS PANTS OFF. THE FOUR FINALLY HAVE ENOUGH AND KICK HIM OUT. NOW THEY GO TO AMSTERDAM!!! EVERYONE HAS A DIFFERENT SCENE HERE. JAMIE HOOKS UP WITH THE CAMERA CHICK WHEN HE GOES FOR A CLEANING FOR HIS CAMERA. WHILE THEY ARE IN THE ALLEY, HE GETS ROBBED AND THEY LOSE ALL THEIR STUFF. SCOTT AND JENNY GO TO A "HASH BAR" WHERE THEY EAT "HASH BROWNIES" ONLY TO DISCOVER IT'S ALL IN THEIR HEADS. AND COOPER GOES TO CLUB VANDER-SEXXX. BASICALLY HE GETS THE WRONG IDEA AND IS SEXUALLY TORTURED BY TWO MEN. THE ONLY WAY HE CAN GET OUT IS IF HE SAYS THE SAFE WORD, WHICH HE HAS NO IDEA WHAT IT SAYS. EVENTUALLY WE THINK HE SAYS IT ONLY TO ACTUALLY SAY TO BRING OUT AN EVEN WORSE PUNISHMENT. AS THE NEXT MORNING ARISES, THEY WALK ALONG THE HIGHWAY LOOKING FOR A RIDE. THEY COME ACCROSS A GERMAN TRUCKER TO WHICH THEY THINK IS GOING TO BERLIN, BUT HE'D "RATHER DRIVE HIS TRUCK OFF A CLIFF BEFORE HE GOES TO BERLIN". HE TAKES THEM TO BRATISLAVA. WITH $1 AND SOME CHANGE LEFT, YOU GOTTA LOVE THAT EXCHANGE RATE. THEY SPEND A NIGHT OUT ON THE TOWN. ONCE THEY GET TO THE BAR, JAMIE AND JENNY (THE TWINS) END UP MAKING OUT. THEY ALSO DRINK AN ILLEGAL LIQUOR IN THE UNITED STATES THAT MAKES THEM HALLUCINATE GREEN FAIRIES. THE NEXT MORNING, A KIND MAN TAKES THEM TO BERLIN. THEY HAVE ARRIVED AT MEICA'S HOUSE!!! HOWEVER, MEICA IS NOT THERE DUE TO SCOTT'S COMMENT IN THAT LAST E MAIL. OUT OF MONEY, ALL HOPE SEEMS LOST WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN, JAMIE GIVES SCOTT A LOT OF MONEY. TURNS OUT HE SOLD HIS PRIZED CAMERA. WITH THEIR NEW MONEY, THEY HEAD TO ROME, ITALY! HERE, THEY GO TO THE VATICAN TO FIND HER. JAMIE IS TAKEN UP AS A TOUR GUIDE, AS HE GUIDES HIS SISTER AND ABOUT 30 PEOPLE THROUGH THE VATICAN. COOPER AND SCOTT SEARCH ON AS THEY RING THE BELL THAT NOTIFIES THAT THE POPE IS DEAD. ONCE THE POPE IS DEAD, COOPER STARTS HIS HAT ON FIRE AND PLACES IT IN THE FIREPLACE GIVING WHITE SMOKE. WE HAVE A NEW POPE! LOL. SCOTT IS THEN WRAPED UP IN DRAPES, AND IS THOUGHT OF AS THE POPE. HE SEES MEICA, AND COMES TOWARDS HER. AS THEY MEET, THE GUARDS TRY TO STOP HIM, BUT SCOTT'S BRITISH FRIENDS MAKE THE SAVE. SCOTT THEN TELLS MEICA HE LOVES HER AND THEY "DO IT" IN A CONFESSIONAL BOOTH. ON THEIR WAY HOME, COOPER AND JENNY "DO IT" IN THE AIRPLANE'S BATHROOM. THE END SEES COOPER AND JENNY TOGETHER, JAMIE WORKING FOR FROMMERS, AND SCOTT IN COLLEGE. SCOTT MEETS HIS NEW ROOMMATE, MEICA. THE ONLY LOGICAL REASON OF HOW IT'S POSSIBLE IS SHE "GUESS THEY THOUGHT SHE WAS A GUY" TO WHICH SCOTT REPLYS, "NOW WHO WOULD BE DUMB ENOUGH TO MAKE A MISTAKE LIKE THAT?". THE MOVIE ENDS WITH WITH SCOTT AND MEICA MAKING OUT AND COOPER BEING LEFT HANGING ON THE PHONE. THE CREDITS THEN PLAY WITH SOME DELETED SCENES AND EVERYONE'S NEW FAVORITE SONG, SCOTTY DOESN'T KNOW.
ALL IN ALL, GREAT MOVIE!
PEACE OUT YA'LL

 | You're entitled to like this film or hate it, but can you honestly equate a person's intelligence quotient to their enthusiasm over a film like Eurotrip? Please. Eurotrip always keeps me laughing from start to finish. It's got heart, memorable lines and characters, and an eclectic soundtrack. If you're a fan of Harold and Kumar, then you'll enjoy Eurotrip. The original title of this movie was The Ugly Americans, and I think that says it all in terms of the film's spirit. The part where Cooper mentions the free T-shirt to the Vandersexx Mistress and she pauses and says, "he's American"; that's priceless!
Jeff Schaffer wasn't going for Oscar gold here. Honestly, what did you naysayers think you were getting, anyway? This isn't The Passion of the Christ. But Amazon also has that movie, and you're entitled to it. And to write "spoiler" after giving away a plot resolution isn't clever, it's rude. Bottom line, if you haven't seen this movie yet and are thinking of purchasing it, try to catch it on cable first. It's worth a look. |

 | Hey y'all. I lived in Europe in the 80's and the vacations that I took to other locations in europe seemed a lot like this movie. I was in high school during that time and was completely concerned about drink, travel and sex. The best trip was to Lloret De Mar Spain for spring break. Yes, the things in this movie are certainly possible. This movie depicts the things on teenagers minds when they are free to do what they want. The different personalities of the four adventurers show what is important to them. If you review this movie and are critical that it holds no importance to the meaning of life, go take your Centrum Silver, drink some prune juice and go back to the activities room at the old folks home. Some people lose sight that movies like this are made for the fun and entertainment of it. Not to prove something profound. It's an awesome movie. Here in Iraq we use the "Escuze" line from the train trip to break the bordom. Enjoy it, it's great. |

 | This film is just idiotic. What a shame that money is spent on crap like this. The characters stereotype an american culture that should not exist. There are so many scenes out of place... the robot scene... come on!! Is that funny?? I mean, I understand that some viewers like to see breasts and can only think of Europe as the sex capital but come on. Manchester United fans in London... why?? Yeah, Manchester United is probably the most popular football team in US perspective. People who like this must have the IQ of a cow. I'm sure that there hasn't ever been any trip to Europe so stupid and dull as the one here. What a waste. 0 out of 5...
This review is probably going to be one my lasts at amazon. I was hoping to find at the most 2 1/2 stars... the average rating for this movie reflects how unrealistic and stupidly-biased some amazon ratings are.

 | Wow, this movie sucks hard. Where should one start blasting it. How about the beginning? Matt Damon's cameo and song left me bleeding from every orifice. The re-occurance of the song through out the movie made me want to hurt someone. The rest of
the soundtrack wasn't bad, with the exception of Jet. Hayden Christensen, learn to act.
Every character comes straight out of a book of cliches. There is the cool kid trying to find his true love. The slacker who doesn't care about anything. The nerd who becomes cool after he gets some. And finally a girl that everyone sees as just a friend.
Picking on mimes is played out. Plenty of jokes and surprises the viewer will see coming from miles away. Very few well thought out jokes, mostly just crappy college humor. Even the plethora of female nudity can't keep this film from being just another stupid teen comedy.
In response to Carmella L. Vann: Not "going for Oscar gold here" is not a justifiable reason for making a bad comedy. If you want to see real comedy why not check out "Rushmore" or "The Big Labowski." One of the keys to a good laugh is surprise, and "Eurotrip" offers none. In addition, I've removed the spoiler. You're right about it being rude, but it proved my point about a surprise leading to me laughing. |
