Review of Beerfest by Mchavez11

Advantages: Cool story, Superb beer drinking, Pretty German girls
Disadvantages: Corny Jokes, Some dull scenes

This hilarious film about beer drinking, family pride, October Fest, Germans and Americans will surely make you laugh and want to drink beer like you never drank before. In this movie showed how two supposedly cousins from America and Germany will be reunited. Surprisingly when the two Yanks got into Hamburg, they were rejected and disowned by their relatives from their German ancestors. As a result, they were schedule to a beer drinking match a ...
...some members from the United States of America and began training day and night just to perfect the formula in devouring tons and tons of beer. In the end, they faced up, and like every feel good comedy flick, the good guys won, which were the Americans. I assure you that after watching this film, there will be a surging urge in your stomach that you want to drink beer to the fullest. That's actually what I did after indulging in this one good comedy ... Read review

Beerfest
Review of Beerfest by lktsatria

Advantages: -
Disadvantages: -

...revel in the spirited foolishness, Beerfest teeters as a lowbrow laugher with its thin rambunctious shell of jocularity. The movie appears more obligated to act as a blueprint for being randomly obnoxious than it does try to be legitimately funny in its spry indecency. Consequently, there are not many suds that fizzle soundly in the glassy-eyed gumption of Beerfest's hazy hilarity. With the excessive drinking binges, pretentious partyboys at play, ...
...bold with a sausage-related innuendo), Beerfest is drunk with its own transparent irreverence. The Broken Lizard crew is certainly appreciative of their bottom-of-the-barrel zany tactics as they frolic in halitosis heaven with their bar-hopping unconventionality in Beerfest. Personally, these Pabst Blue Ribbon pranksters couldn't raise a mug to the subtle non-conformity of Strange Brew's the MacKenzie Brothers. ... Read review

Review of Beerfest by memo0586

Advantages: Laugher, makes beer look like it's gold
Disadvantages: none

This is one of my favorite movies of all time. It is full of laughter and the story line is pretty good. If you do not like beer, I suggest you watch this movie because than you will start liking beer. And if you like beer than you have to watch this movie! This movie makes beer look like it is the best tasting thing in the entire world and I promise you this, you will want a beer while you are watching this movie. The first time I saw it at the ...

Review of Beerfest (Unrated Edition) by bailey013 taken from ciao.co.uk

Advantages Funny, Entertaining
Disadvantages Might Be Offensive To People

..."Seeing how popular beer is in our culture, it is a crying shame that it took so damn long to make a movie that gives the almighty brew its rightful spot in the pantheon of beverages-at the tippy-top. Sure, there was Strange Brew, but that movie was more about how silly Canadians are than it was about beer (Yo, Canada… this was just to provoke you, no need to write in). Now, thanks to Broken Lizard, beer drinkers finally have a movie to call their own… and it kicks ass. The aptly titled Beerfest is the first true BL film since the ultra-disappointing Club Dread. In between Jay Chandrasekhar directed the mediocre Dukes of Hazzard, but Beerfest is a return to the form that put Broken Lizard on the map with the uproarious Super Troopers. The story follows Jan and Todd Wolfhouse, who are mourning the passing of their grandfather when... Read review

Das Boot it is not
Review of Beerfest (Unrated Edition) by kerman taken from ciao.co.uk

Advantages Worth watching if drunk
Disadvantages Unfunny comedy

...The plot revolves around 2 brothers who go to Germany where they are supposed to be scattering their late grandfather's ashes but instead find themselves involved in a drinking contest called beerfest. It just so happens that the grandfather was related to the reigning German champions and had fled to America taking a secret recipe for the best German Beer. Once this secret is discovered the German team humiliates the Americans who are then thrown out of the event. The brothers return to America where they plan to find a team and spend a year preparing for the next Beerfest and seek revenge on their German relatives. The climax of the film sees the American team head to Germany and take part in Beerfest, which involves a series of drinking games. I cannot begin to describe how bad this film is on so many levels.

I like the Beer...fest!
Review of Beerfest (Unrated Edition) (Rental) (DVD) by PureGames taken from ciao.co.uk

Advantages Very funny. Great film
Disadvantages The film ends :(

...Wow! What a great film. So funny and great, Surely they have to make a sequal. When two brothers go to Germany and discover an ancient beer drinking competition and after relizing theres no American team they round one up and take on the Germans. With So many funny scenes your likely to finish watching the film with a tear in your eye. Some have said you should be drunk to enjoy this film, but i disagree!(maybe a little but tipsy). The film has so many funny parts that iv forgotten most of them, but one that sticks out is when one of the Americans wakes up in a field naked with a dead goat and says "Not again" LOL pure genius. And if you like Germans then thats another reason to watch Broken Lizards Beerfest!. Maybe not worth buying at full price, but well worth buying after a few months.... Read review

Manufacturer's product description

With a title that insures against accusations of false advertising, BEERFEST is a raunchy and genial amalgamation of ANIMAL HOUSE, STRANGE BREW, FIGHT CLUB, and every clichéd sports film ever made. Written by and starring comedy troupe Broken Lizard (SUPER TROOPERS, CLUB DREAD) and directed by Lizard member Jay Chandrasekhar, the film is unapologetically sophomoric, never missing a chance for a belch, flatulence, bared breasts, or Cloris Leachman doing lewd things with a sausage. After the death of their bar-owning German grandfather (Donald Sutherland), Jan (Paul Soter) and Todd (Erik Stolhanske) Wolfhouse must travel to Munich to scatter his ashes. Fortunately for them, it's Oktoberfest, but the brothers aren't there very long before they embarrass themselves at a public celebration and find themselves at Beerfest, an annual international underground beer-guzzling competition. When they compete, they are disgraced by their German cousins, the Von Wolfhausens--headed by father Jurgen Prochnow--who claim that the Wolfhouses' late grandfather stole a beer recipe from them many years before. Jan and Todd return home to train for next year's competition, incorporating into their team a few old college pals--male prostitute Barry (Chandrasekhar), burly Landfill (Kevin Heffernan), and science nerd Fink (Steve Lemme). For BEERFEST to work, it's imperative that viewers find humor in exaggerated German accents. Cloris Leachman appears to be enjoying throwing all comic caution to the wind, and Prochnow gets to lampoon DAS BOOT in a funny sequence. Big, sloppy, and ridiculous--compliments in this case--all apply to the third Broken Lizard feature, which is sure to burp its way into every fraternity house film library until the world ends.
