Strange Wilderness

"You're shitting me!
You know Bigfoot's name?"

1 Star

You can tell this movie was made just to pay the bills, without working too hard to do it.
Might be pretty funny if you were 10, and had no cable and someone left it at your house.

This ragtag group of guys produce a nature show that airs at 3 in the morning. With the threat of being canceled they need something big to save their show. With a tip from an old friend they decide to hunt Bigfoot. The plot is simple enough, so there's plenty of room for cheap cheap cheap 99cent bits. Including pot jokes, dick jokes, drug jokes, and other jokes that are painfully obvious!! (Hey check it out, I smoked a shit load of weed and nitrous, and I drew a dick on the bus!) Yawn....
They really tried to push the bit that they run a nature show, but swear throughout it on the voice overs.
"This bear is the largest fuckin animal in the forest. He eats a shitload of salmon a day..."
They really beat you over the head with that one, geesh!

The two actors who actually have great comedic talent were totally butchered!
Jonha Hill (Superbad) could have easily held this movie on his own, but instead he had a third tier roll with an accent (?) that I couldn't even discern where they wanted him to be from. Made no sense. Then, there's Peter Dante (part of the Sandler troupe) who can make anything he says funny, and they kill him off in the first 15 minutes!!!
Wow. They just really wanted this movie to fail.
I'm all about the sick humor! Dick jokes? Love 'em! Stoners? Ya! F-bombs? I'm in!
But there is some sort of style, and talent that can make these elements hilarious...
this movie ditched class that day.
