Alright, I gotta admit that I did *not* like this movie when I begrudgingly saw it in theaters in 2004, but now that I'm closer to 40 than I was 20 back then, this hits a hell of a lot different. I've lost so many childhood friends to death in that time and the overall "thesis" -- I guess you could tall it that -- of this movie hits a lot ***stronger*** with those experiences in my past.

I used to think casting Seth Green as the anal straight man was a terrible miscasting because he's always been good at the absurd, over-the-top characters who usually require a straight man of their own to keep them reigned in, but he totally makes the hypochondriac anxious mess *work!* Kinda wish I hadn't waited another 20 years to rewatch this, because it's a hell of a lot more entertaining now than it was when I was 18.

This feels very 2004, and I think that is a good thing. It is a typical buddy road trip adventure that has a few good jokes and a very silly premise. I think if it were any other actors it would've fell flat on its face but these 3 do have some chemistry that make even the dumb moments work.

This wasn't as bad as expected. Seth Green character was actually quite entertaining. The others were pretty standard. Nothing memorable in terms of the capers they get into. Some of the more promising situations I feel were missed opportunities e.g. the burning of the weed field.
