Without A Paddle

Without a PaddleI’ve heard great things about this movie and it didn’t disappoint me. Anyone who knows me can tell you that I’m not the biggest fan of comedy movies. I like action and drama. Give me some excitement! There are some comedies that I like though. This is one.

The best scene from the movie is when the 3 friends have to huddle together for warmth wearing nothing but their underwear. I don’t know why they included this in the trailers for the movie because it kind of ruined it a little bit. I was still laughing my ass off, don’t get me wrong, but it too the surprise away. Seth Green, Matthew Lillard, and Dax Shepard all performed excellent roles in the film. You probably know Dax from Punk’d on MTV, but this was his first big time role. Green played the friend everyone picked on and really fit the role since he’s so short compared to Dax and Lillard.

One complaint I have about the film is the plot has an overall serious message to it. This is supposed to be a comedy and I don’t like it when writers attempt to put two types of story into one. Save the drama for another movie because it really kills the comic tone. With that said I still really liked the flick.

I give it a B+, but only because it’s not my typical cup of tea.
