Pop-culture references, witty banter, broad slapstick, and sentimental speeches all fall equally flat.
These films were always down on women – Armstrong squanders the peerless Krysten Ritter as eye candy – but this slovenly runaround only exposes the low opinion they’ve harboured of their target male demographic. We’re meant to identify with them?

THIS IS TRULY ONE OF THE FUNNIEST MOVIES I HAVE EVER SEEN. THE DIRECTOR IS A GENIUS, AS WELL AS ALL OF THE ACTORS. THE CRITICS ARE SO WRONG ON THIS ONE! WATCH IT AND YOU WILL LAUGH YOUR *** OFF! SOMETIMES THE CRITICS ARE RIGHT (AND I SOMETIMES LISTEN TO THEM), BUT BOY DID THEY GET THIS ONE VERY WRONG! DON'T MISS A SERIOUSLY FUNNY MOVIE!!! I HOPE SOMEONE SEES MY REVIEW (WHICH I TOOK THE TIME TO WRITE, ON PURPOSE) AND HAS THE CHANCE TO LAUGH THEIR *** OFF TOO!! LET'S MAKE MORE COMEDIES JUST LIKE THIS ONE!! P-E-R-F-E-C-T!!! (although there is some vulgarity, who cares... it is SO MUCH MORE THAN THAT... don't be so serious, laugh a little! It's the best medicine! :))

In my opinion it was really funny movie with lots of actors and actresses from tv series (sitcoms) many people enjoy. Yes, the whole story was a bit dumb, but it is a comedy, what else you want - it was funny, it wasn't like there were far jokes or whatever, I mean some others here say that it is vulgar or whatever, for immature people. But most comedies are like that, if you don't want to see that then don't watch comedies.

As it stands, there are only enough comic ideas here, most of them bad ones, to reach 82 minutes; the other 11 are taken up by a postscript scene, a blooper, and closing credits that move, in the words of Scarlett O’Hara, as slow as molasses in January.
This is the type of comedy where the flop sweat is nearly always present as each player tries to lift the comedy, only to tragically belly-flop over and over. No one here is phoning it in, but with material this bad, it would be hard to blame them.
When did these very funny and undeniably talented TV actors know that Search Party was a disaster?
This is safe, hyper-conventional stuff, lazy enough to make you feel bad that Middleditch had to free willy for it. The best thing you can say about the movie is that men have taken their pants off for less.
This spectacularly dumb and unfunny film will likely bore even the staunchest fans of the “Hangover” movies, of which “Search” is a kind of distant, fatally impoverished cousin.
In some case, 'friends forever' was mistaken.
Being a B movie, it is not that bad. It is eligible for some minor exceptions and if you consider that while watching it, then it does not disappoint much. Yes, there are many similar films like this, but what makes it somewhat special is that it is quite freely explored its contents without stressing out on detailing everything. I meant it was a simple road adventure film and you would feel it very familiar yet you will realise that it is not worth criticing it.
The actors were decent, but expected much better. Directed by a newcomer who had written many screenplays similar this theme. Like I said it was quite predictable, at a time decently enjoyable with a few laughs now and then, especially that Mexican police station scene was hilarious. You might get a million reasons to dislike it, but you achieve nothing from it. According to me it was surely a decent watch, hence not a must see, but if you do, then don't take it seriously, try to have fun within its limits.

A stupid, vulgar-infested excuse of a movie should only be fed to only immature people, otherwise if you're mature, stay away from it. I don't care if you're over 18, just don't watch it and there's a lot of reasons why not to watch it.
