If you can get past the terrible acting, voicing and effects, it's not too bad. After half the movie I thought it was alright and some of it was pretty funny, by the end of the movie I liked it. I can watch it again and appreciate it more than I did the first watch through. This movie can not be taken seriously.
Some of the scenes don't seem fluid enough but for the most part you can stay on track with the movie. I think what really helps this movie is the homosexual guy (I can't remember his name), he is really funny.
It's definitely one of those movies that are so terrible and stupid but funny. If you can't stand B movies than avoid this movie like the plague.

I've seen a lot of bad movies, but this one takes the cake. Low technical standards, bad acting, not to mention a over the top cheesy story. They took a lot of clichés from similar, a lot better road-trip movies, made it even more premature, topping it with some nudity. (As if it didn't look bad enough) I DID manage to sit this one through though, because I'm so used to the clichés that my brain tricked me into thinking it had some value. Without spoiling anything I can say that the ending pushed the stars from 2 to 3 for me. That and the boring female friend of the lead is hot in a non-sleazy way, so she saved the three as well. That being said, 3 is not a good grade. 3 sucks! This movie sucks! You might watch it through if you start it, but just because you get tricked. Don't see it. Please. Rather see some other road-trip-movie. Please..
This is indisputable the worst movie I have ever watched (of course for a few minutes).
The concept was stolen from Hangover 2 except that its filled with disgusting and very stupid scenes.
Wonder where they got their actors cause I wouldn't want to be part of a production like this.
Should have a warning saying, "strictly poop lovers".
Also never watch while eating or if you pregnant.
To the producers, I'm sorry but you should try and do better things with your time.
Not worth anybody's time.

At first I wasn't particularly interested in seeing this movie. I looked up its reviews, though, and that's what got me interested. No, not the couple of glowing reviews, but the bad reviews. They seemed over the top nasty. A couple were extremely personal and aimed at the writer/star in almost a cyberstalking way. It all seemed very strange. I figured I could spare a few minutes to see whether it would be worth watching the whole thing. And, sure, this is not some cinematic masterpiece, but, dude, it's in the gross out / road trip / raunchy comedy genres. None of them are Oscar-bait films. And this is superior to many of them. The main character is kind of a selfish prick, but then often that's who's trying to do the overly huge romantic gestures that are doomed to failure. If you've been dating someone for a couple months and they already have been rebuffing physical intimacy for weeks, maybe you shouldn't take over someone else's party to ask her to marry you in front of everyone, dude. There's also his best friend (who happens to be improbably sweet woman who is crazy in love with the guy), the wild friend who gets more than his share of bodily fluids dumped on him, and his gay uncle who provides the transportation needed for the road trip to foolishly again ask the woman to marry him -- by interrupting her wedding, no less. Oh, and there's also a woman who is that other woman's best friend / maid of honor but sets things in motion by telling the clueless guy about the wedding, and she somehow joins the trip with the main characters instead of whatever plans she must have had beforehand to get there. I mean, it's unbelievable, but I won't complain because she's the most charismatic character of the bunch. She even somehow displaces all other women for a while so it's just her and the lead guy for a part of the movie. Who is he going to pick, the one who got away, her breasty bestie or the platonic solid? And who decided that it's up to this putz to choose, anyway? I wouldn't blame the women if they ran off with each other and formed a lesbian punk rock band. And they should take the raccoon. That thing was laugh out loud absurdly hilarious.
Well, I must admit that I didn't really have much of any expectations for this 2013 movie titled "American Idiots", aside from it being a comedy and a road trip movie.
Turns out that this movie from director Robert Taleghany and writer Jeffrey T. Schoettlin wasn't really much of an entertaining movie. At least it failed to really entertain me and I actually didn't even laugh once throughout the course of the movie.
Storywise then "American Idiots" is as straight forward as it could possibly be, to the point of where it became generic and just predictable. And writer Jeffrey T. Schoettlin offered literally nothing in terms of making the storyline interesting, as it just cruised onwards on autopilot.
You shouldn't be setting yourself up for expecting a grand presentation of acting performances here in "American Idiots". Because you'll be sorely disappointed. I mean, some of the actors and actresses were adequate, while others were just downright out of their element and league.
There are far better comedies readily available of this particular genre of comedy.
I am rating "American Idiots" a mere three out of ten stars, and I can in all honesty say that I am not returning to watch this movie a second time.
