Some people will love this film and some people will hate it. I can see both sides of this argument & I'm not going to try and persuade anyone to watch it or avoid it. This is just a few of my thoughts on why I personally didn't like it.
The film just didn't connect with me, it started off reasonably well as we are introduced to the two characters but after that it becomes a real slog which is seemingly going nowhere. We have constant fart & boner jokes and not much else. Then we have them moving from one place to another and going over the same jokes again which to me just wasn't funny. I didn't laugh once throughout the film.
Although the film is undoubtedly unique, it just doesn't work for me as I felt no emotional attachment to either of the characters and at times I was utterly lost as to what the film was actually trying to be. The performances of Dano & Radcliffe were fine but for a film described as 'Adventure, Comedy, Drama' it was lacking in all 3 aspects. The whole soundtrack with the two characters singing parts of it was also pretty annoying.
After an hour I had lost all interest and simply didn't care how it was going to end. So the film is obviously not for me but I can appreciate some parts of it and people with different taste will like it and that's fine.
4/10, didn't like it but it had two good lead performances and at least tried to be original. I feel this could've worked better as a short film or maybe TV mini series.
