O ovom filmu

Bert Kreischer rose to fame as a stand-up comedian known as The Machine, and in his signature set he recounts his true experience with Russian mobsters while on a booze-soaked college trip. Now, 23 years later, that trip has come back to haunt him as he and his estranged father (Mark Hamill) are kidnapped back to Russia by the mob to atone for something they say he did. Together, Bert and his father must retrace the steps of his younger self (Jimmy Tatro) in the midst of a war within a sociopathic crime family, all while attempting to find common ground in their often-fraught relationship.

Paid for it to support BK. Pretty hard to get on board with the premise. Even the force could not save the story albeit Hamill was the most enjoyable parts of the movie. Studios must be pretty hard up for new ideas. Good to see a comedian trying new avenues. Now he has tried this, next he can try cliff diving, magician or just continue being a fun comedian.

Not even a little bit funny. I expected raunchy edgy comedian humor. It was boring. Just like every comedy post-"The Hangover" era.

Great movie will be watching again... heard about the movie coming out from The Joe Rogan Experience and so glad I did. Sadly I could not watch it in theaters but will be watching it again with my wife... and father lol. Very much worth the watch and rewatch if not with family.
