THE PLOT:
four friends go to Europe and commence in comical misadventures.

THE REVIEW:
The essential story is about a kid named Scotty who gets dumped after graduation finds solace in friends called "booze" and "party." He later awakes and realizes that his European pen pal that he has been communicating for several months now is not a perverted male, but instead a gorgeous blonde female. It is then he gathers up a group of friends and sets off to Europe to find this girl who can very well be the “one”....and the hilarity of European high jinks and stereotypes commences.

This is a fine example of what an all out "teen" comedy of our coeval is all about. Set aside the John Hughes/Cameron Crowe romantics and bring forth the combination of the gross-out factor of the Farrelly brothers and the zaniness of David Zucker and you get the full embodiment of "Eurotrip."

On to the cast of characters: Scotty (Scott Mechlowicz) is cool and his battle with the human robot is just pure golden, Cooper (Jacob Pitts) is essentially a duplicate version of one David Spade, The twins Jamie (Travis Wester) and Jenny (Michelle Trachtenberg) where the first is seen as uptight but eventually lets lose and the second has a nice ass and hot to the nearest tenth, Mieke (Jessica Boehrs) is hot German blonde and that's that, Donny (Matt Damon) a great cameo fun stuff, Fiona (Kristin Kreuk) the hot ex-girlfriend and kreuk plays well in her first feature film, Creepy Italian man (Fred Armisen) is fun to watch and same goes with the rest of the characters I didn't mention.

There's a lot of great gags, jokes, and one liners that just makes this film highly enjoyable. Whether it be jumping on the Manchester Untied bandwagon and getting hammered like there's no tomorrow or being extensively sexual abused by an Italian under the darkness of train tunnels or experiencing the world of Vandersexx in all its dominatrix glory or getting high by eating normal brownies in Amsterdam or getting drunk out of your mind and making out with your sister or getting the best bj of your life while getting robbed of all your money or attending a nude beach expecting to see a flowerbed of babes but instead seeing the term "sausage fest" realized or combating in a robot duel or forgetting where you parked your car or being mocked by a catchy tune or being consumed by various amounts of TNA or becoming the new pope or writing this review while spying on my hot neighbor through her window while she changes...I mean... forget that last one. What I’m trying to say is that this is a "fun" movie plain and simple.
