Review of Road Trip (2000) by Alex R — 26 Jul 2011
Road Trip is a film that when first released was very funny. However as the years gio by, the film becomes unfunny with every viewing. Having watched it recently, this film has not aged well, and the jokes have become stale.
This film has many flaws, one being the bad joke, another the bad acting, and third it looks dated. One thing that I hated about the film was Tom Green, who is very unfunny,, and whos brand of comedy is so low brow that he has become irrelevant and forgetable.
Road Trip by today's standards has a few chuckles here and there, but the humour for the most part is unfunny and doesn't generate laugh out loud moments like it did when it first came out. This is the type of comedy that becomes unfunny as the years go by.
Rewatching this recently, I realized that the films comedy was lazy and uninspired. Road Trip was a fun film when it first came out, but now ten years after its release, the film has lost it's finess and is no longer relevant.
There has been far better comedies that have come out since. Comedies with a better story, better jokes and is still funny long after its release. But Road Trip, due to the talent involved managed to be a comedy that has become unfunny very fast.
Todd Philips has made a better comedy, The Hangover which is one of the funniest comedies of the decade. But this film is pretty pointless and manages only a few chuckles and a few smiles instead of bringing on big laughs.
The film has become forgetable.
