Recensie (5)
Seth Rogen has done better stuff, but together with Falcon and Don Jon they make a likeable trio that will entertain you and put a smile on your face. The driving force is clearly Rogen, who creates some of the best situational humour in Hollywood, the scene in the church carries about as much weight in comedies as Kingsman's church scene does in the action genre. Michael Shannon as a stoned drug dealer was also very surprising. If you this trio, plus all the New York drugs used in one night, you will be satisfied. 80%

A model of current American comedy capitalizing on humor that is based on alcohol and drugs 90% of the time. Some scenes are definitely great, but we have seen most a thousand times before. Nothing groundbreaking. However, I have a feeling that when one day somebody evaluates these comedies, the scene of a completely wasted Seth Rogen in a church will end up in the first place. I have a feeling that I will never see something similar again and I will have to wait God knows how long until somebody comes up with something even more terrible… if at all.

This review is sponsored by Red Bull: A reference-packed romp headed for the most ostentatious Christmas party in New York. The ingenious, doped-up Rogen gives you convulsions in your diaphragm in every other scene. Otherwise, it’s a movie about how important Christmas is for our generation. About friendship, the horror of having a child and the fear of failure at work and in life. Heavy topics doled out one slow drag at a time. And Michael Shannon is great as the Christmas pusher. The scene with a Jew in a church was just perfect.

Seth Rogen and his buddies have made another movie that's mostly to entertain them. But every now and then they manage to entertain the viewer. They manage to hold your attention thanks to their rough humor, which doesn't go too far this time, although the episode with James is great. I was absolutely blown away by the proposal. Yes, I'm one of those people who doesn't mind Miley.

I do like Rogen movies, but this one was a miss. I expect a comedy to make me laugh. Maybe it would happen if I synced with Seth Rogen and consumed drugs as fast as he did. I would die, but maybe I would find my death hilarious. As I was sober, the movie was rather depressing and boring. Three friends go out to party at Christmas, and that’s about it. Sad and boring.
