I'm seeing this based on my sister-in-law's wholehearted recommendation. As I've said many times before, the uncomfortable-situation genre of film comedies are difficult to watch. To the credit of Clown's nationality, though, it's much easier to handle when the actors are European. Based on a smash hit television series, the story is about two friends - one creepy, one hapless - who embark on a weekend of debauchery to escape their "boring" normal lives. Except the hapless one brings along his 11-year-old nephew so as to prove to his girlfriend that he's ready for a family. Significant crude hilarity follows.
Is the film funny? Yes. Does it deserve the fanboy-adoration I saw last night when it won the Gutbuster award for best comedy? Not really. I prefer the humor of Carre Blanc. Watch this if you can tolerate stupid funny and lots of uncomfortable situations.
